《How to write a book》Revision
Advertisement
Revising your novel is hard work. It takes a lot of time if you want to do it properly. Maybe you'll even have to kill parts of your baby.
WHEN TO START REVISING
Don't start revising until you have finished your first draft, because once you start you won't be able to stop. The revision stage is your worst enemy if you haven't got from beginning to ending yet.
After the first draft you shouldn't start revising either. Not immediately. Take some time off to distance yourself from the novel you've written. This will take away blind spots.
REVISING
1. Read your entire novel from beginning to end. Don't touch the grammar. Only look at how the conflict unfolds, if it seems realistic and if there are parts that seem to be missing or that are irrelevant to the plot. Write down which parts don't work and why not. After reading it completely, change the parts that you have written down. You can add chapters or scenes, remove them, rewrite them or rearrange them.
2. Read and change again. Maybe you have even have to do it more than twice.
3. Let other people read your novel and make notes on what works and what doesn't. Read the parts that they don't like and see if you agree with them. If necessary, make changes.
4. Now read your book one last time. This time starting at the end. Take out all the grammatical errors.

8 97Unknown Fate's End
The ancient's believed that a man's fate or destiny is written already, and that only God or maybe the Gods could change it. If they did change it, it was believed it was for a purpose unknown to that man or for maybe for the ammusement of those higher beings. However, whether that is true or not, one thing is for certain. Changing a man's fate will create a ripple of changes. Join our hero, who whether by luck, by some divine intervention, or by his own choice, separated from the fate that he shared with his fellow earthlings. Watch him struggle in his new world. Watch him grow. Watch him learn. Watch him walk a path oustside what destiny has for him. FYI: The magic concept in this story is high fantasy with involvement of polytheistic religions and demons. There will be a mix of GameLit style writing mixed with traditional magic novel style writing. The plot developement will be slow in the first volume, as I will focus on world building and character building. The main character will not be OP immediately and will develop into one in his own way over time. This series is built less like modern Japanese, Korean, and Chinese webnovels and more like the old school fanstasy novels like DND and Forgotten Realms.
