《Dungeon Runner》A question about book 2 in this series
Advertisement
Bottom Rung is reaching its end. Chapter 64 is the conclusion, and it was written yesterday, becoming available on my Patreon tomorrow.
I have book 2, Stepping Up, ready to start on, but I need to know something from you, the readers of book 1.
Do you want Book 2 posted here as I write it, or do you want me to wait until I start on draft 2?
As a frame of reference, the majority of Bottom Rung was a draft 2 posting. Chapters 47 and a dozen or see after that are the only ones that are brand new and therefore qualify as draft 1, so you can compare
What are the advantages of draft 1 posting? You get the chapters right now(ish) (I might jump a few days before posting the book 2 chapters.)
Disadvantage? The story will be clunkier. I do a lot of discovering when I write the draft 1, if I realize an event should have happened in an earlier chapter, I will have the character remember the even happening. Dialogue will have a lot of ‘bobbing heads’ since I am more focused on getting the discussion down than establishing the body language. Grammar should be to the same level, since run drafts 1 through the same editing tools as I do drafts 2.
Advantaged of waiting until draft 2? A cleaner story with characters who have more consistent personalities.
Disadvantage? An unknown timeframe. I don’t know how long book 2 will be. I also don’t know what my writing schedule will be like, since I’m returning to work on the 10th unless something happens with my checkup on the 6th. While I’m working, I will only be able to write 1 chapter of book 2 a week.
Regardless of the decision, book 2 will start on my patreon https://www.patreon.com/kindar within a few days, so anyone will be able to catch it there if the decision is to not have me post it here.

Dragonslayer Awakens (The Flash Guardians series 1)
MaXabiere Berrygrewd, or Xabe for short, is a sixteen-year-old boy who lives in an enchanted world called Enchanteria, a place full of magic, wonders, and mysteries. And in that world, there are mortal heroes of any race called the Flash guardians: Who train and practice their magical abilities, talents, skills, and spells to stand against evil and become the forces of good. Xabe found them admirable, so a small part of him wanting to join them, but he only looks at a smaller picture as he lives in a peaceful, prosperous town of Yardsville in the landmass of Etheron. But his life was not all that peaceful, though. A long time ago, the greatest threat was created and caused nothing but chaos, death, and destruction. Devastrigon is its name: a colossal three-headed dragon that conquers the sky, wreak havoc on the earth, trembles the seas, and give wrath to the flames. Unlike the united clans of the dragons, this one is a king of its own, and thus it has followers that sought to take over the world- and so the dragon war began. Even the Flash guardians find this their greatest threat they had ever faced, but fortunately, awakened from his slumber, arise the legend known as the Dragonslayer: an unknown avenger that can outmatch any dragon with his strength and mighty roar. He had earned the out most respect from his deeds and power. However, what lies ahead of the slayer is not what it seems, for his purpose is to not bring an end- but to give a start. And that starts with MaXabiere, who, deep down, has an inner power that has been growing little by little as he uses them. Although, the inner power is still in a sleepy state and must be awakened in order to see the unimaginable potential. He must join alongside with the Flash guardians, must be trained by the Dragonslayer, and he must realize his true destiny in order to see the bigger picture by realizing what it's like to be a slayer, a guardian, and a hero. The very first installment of “The Flash guardians” series has forged the magical world, diverse characters, epic quests, and the beginning of a new legend of the Dragonslayer awakens. *Book cover is illustrated and designed by M.
