Hi folks,

Earlier today (maybe 2 hours ago from the time of this post), one of you (@Maudib) seemed disappointed that I had cursing in the novel and that I was re-writing content (while introducing more cursing), but I said I'd take his comment into consideration, and I did, so I figured I'd address those issues formally, then get back to writing.

First off, I get that some of you may not be too fond of cursing, truthfully I'm not either, yet up to this point in the novel I've used swearing as a descriptive tool to convey certain things as I believe they would naturally be conveyed; however, after some thought, I do think I can do a better job than I have so far. Which gets me to my second point: Re-writing.

As a writer, I'm constantly trying to improve the way I convey things, and hopefully that's noticeable as the story progresses, but because I'd like to one day publish— Its important for me that I go back and make revisions in places that could see improvement. Generally it's nothing big, but there's a qualitative difference between, say,

"Capra was angry", and "Capra stomped away— mumbling four lettered utterances under his breath."

Those are the kind of changes I'm trying to make when I re-write, I want my content to be more like the second example above. I also want to cut out any content that's just "fluff." That is to say, anything extra and unnecessary that doesn't necessarily pertain to the stories plot, or somehow enrich it.

Nothing's being grievously retconned, so please nobody panic.

With all that said, I will continue to re-write things (and I've decided to re-do any dialogue that involves cursing), but I hope all of you can understand that you're not necessarily losing out on anything moving forward even with re-writes.

Kind Regards,

P.S. I really do appreciate reader feedback. It's not always the case, but there are many times where one of you will say something and I'll be like, "Why didn't I think of that?" or "How could I forget." As a general rule feedback helps me (even if I don't necessarily heed it), so please don't be shy.

P.P.S. Thanks.
