《Silver Amelia》[Read this Before you Start]

Advertisement

So it came to my attention that some, despite there being a NOTE on the story description, refuses to think about why the sequence of chapters had ended up like this. And by this, I meant the following before the prologue:

[Observer's Notes], [Celestia's Corner], [(Not a chapter) Questions, Recommendations, or Suggestions], [Unknown 1.01], [Unknown 1.02], and [Unknown 2.01].

These chapters are there so it would be easy to check on some extra info and for the readers to leave behind a comment or suggestion regarding the story. Regarding why it was placed there, it is because I didn't want to break the flow of the chapters. It was intended so that every time a reader clicks on the , they are assured that it is a story chapter and not an informative chapter. This is born from recalling that I myself dislike those chapters and a reader that made me remember the pain of encountering it. Thank you for that.

Next is the Unknown Chapters. Like I stated, it was STALLED, and is tagged as a READ AT YOUR OWN RISK chapter. So please don't complain that you've read it before the PROLOGUE.

Next is,

This novel will be re-written after I finished it and gained more experience in writing.

I don't know if people can't understand this line completely, but even so, I'll explain.

As I had been saying throughout the past, which a few readers probably knew by now, or everyone should have realized by now, I AM AN AMATEUR. So please! just PLEASE, don't expect me to write at a professional, publishing, or editorial level of prose.

English is my second language. My course in college is mostly unrelated, if not completely unrelated, to English. In fact, I hate English from the very start. It is my bane. But here I am writing in English just because I wanted my MC's story to be heard. It just so happens that English is the best tool for me to deliver it to the audience.

Now, This novel will be re-written

Just as it says. Why? Because I myself know how badly I wrote. True, there are TONS of mistakes. There are words that should be replaced. Grammar to be fixed and more. I know that, okay? Fully well. But yes, I do appreciate feedback and corrections, but if you're going to be sarcastic about it, please be reminded that I'll ignore it. After all, what I'm after is something constructive, not some cheap words from a grammar nazi who seemed to hate anyone who makes a mistake.

I take note of feedbacks silently, so just because I didn't comment or reply doesn't mean I've ignored it.

Mistakes remain in a lot of chapters. I believe so, too. Why? Because I can only write or edit, there is no both for my situation.

First, I don't make a living with writing. I myself know that I'm not cut out for writing, so I can't hope or see myself making a profit out of it. In other words, I have a life separate from writing. I work to feed myself and spare some for my parents. Being in a country where the wage is low, despite being a developer, I have to work myself in order to live. Even the event of my laptop breaking down broke a large hole in my wallet.

In reality, I still can't believe I am able to write despite my busy life. Maybe because I'm too committed to trying to finish this that I use whatever time I can scrape in my weekend just to write.

On another note, which is probably another source of mistakes, is that I mostly finish and upload a chapter around midnight or an hour or two after it. Most of the time, if not every time, I do it in a state that I'm barely awake. So it's kinda hard for me to spot obvious errors even after re-reading the chapter two or three times. Sorry about it in advance, and I hope you understand, but I do take my time in trying to make a pass of the chapter a few times before uploading it.

Why not get an editor?

Frankly, I'm not up for it. First, I have no money to pay a person to edit it for me. Two, it will delay the release, which is already slow if you'd ask me. Third, I don't want to get another author to edit my work as a favor. I don't want anyone to edit this fiction out of simply helping. If possible, I want an editor that is interested in the story itself and willing to sacrifice his own time.

All said and done, thank you for reading up to this point. I appreciate that you took your time to read.
