1.
I think it was all those years of playing D&D as a teenager.
2
When I started creating my world, I struggled with organizing my notes. I worked on the book over twelve years before I started putting fingers to the keyboard.
The character's evolution. I loved watching the characters developed unique personalities.
Everyone that has read it loves it. I haven't received any negative feedback from those that have finished the 1st book.
5
The Gathering is the first of three for this series. I have further books planned that will continue, and because of feedback from readers on Wattpad, I have decided to go back and write prequels.
6.
I want the reader to come away feeling fulfilled and needing more. I want the characters to be memorable and make a lasting impression on the reader. I want people to like it so much, and they want other people to read it.
Don't stop writing. Find time, even if it's 30 minutes a day. If you are using Wattpad, listen to the readers and make edits often.
Not really. I can't think of any.
9.
I feel like my story is unique because I spend a lot of time exploring the antagonists. I want the reader to see both sides of the story. Why is the villain the way he is? The villains need to feel justified from their actions, right?
1
Yes, definitely. I am currently working on book two, The Hunted, as I continue to edit book one, The Gathering. I have plans to continue the series for as long as I have ideas. I've thought about following the next generation and even going back in time and doing several prequels.

Cyrus chose to spend his remaining years playing Fantasy Unlimited, where he eventually became the best player in the game. But all of that is meaningless when the game is set to end. As the only player left online, Cyrus watched it all come to an end. But what happens when you wake up only to find yourself still in the game? Or is it really still the same game?Do you rejoice?Do you lament?Or do you say: Fuck it! When given another chance to live his life, Cyrus moves forward without hesitation. But life was never meant to be easy and neither is your second. A/N: Mature tag added for possiblity of violence, sex scenes (not entirely sure if I can write one though), etc.; harem tag removed but not exactly sure yet Hi guys, I thought I'd try to write a book (obviously easier said than done). Don't actually know where I'm headed with this but thought it would be fun to try to get as far as I can. There is no set schedule whatsoever. Constructive criticism greatly appreciated.
