《Cutting Edge - A Progression LitRPG》Notes on Book 1 - Not a chapter (check the three previous chapters posted today)
Advertisement
If you've gotten this far, I'd really appreciate it, if you were to leave a review or rating.
Secondly, I'd appreciate it, if you were to use this comment section to lemme know what you thought of book one - besides my horrible posting frequency as well as grammar and spelling.
Thirdly - what's going to happen now? I'll be working over the majority of the summer and taking an evening course - so there is not much writing going to happen. I do plan on lining out book two and maybe three as well over the course of the summer.
Here comes the but. Cutting Edge will be going on an uncertain Hiatus for the foreseeable future due to several compounding issues.
I do want to edit the entirety of book one to fix grammar and spelling as well as to address some issues I've had with the story myself and some that were pointed out to me already and others that will almost certainly be pointed out to me.
Uni is going to be really busy next semester - because I need to retake a pretty big course in addition to my other uni obligations.
There are also a bunch of other projects I want to work on. Some of you might know that I used to write "Accidentally Smithing" which I in many ways like more than Cutting Edge - mostly because it was my first story - and that will be rewritten eventually but also a bunch of other writing-related things I'm writing on that may or may not appear on RR in the future.
I find that I myself don't entirely enjoy writing the web novel format. Especially the regularity of uploads is just not something I can compete with - I enjoy procrastination too much. That leaves me with three options I'm comfortable with. First to post a batch of chapters whenever I'm happy with them. Second post an arc whenever I'm happy with it. Lastly, post the entirety of a book when I think it's done.

If you have any thoughts or preferences in regards to the previous point feel free to point them out in the comments.
That being said, I've already written the epilogue to book 1, the prologue to book 2, and 5 chapters in book 2. If I decided to go with the first option and don't procrastinate editing for too long I might even get out the next batch of chapters in the fall.
Let me note down a few things I feel that could have gone better and if you agree with any of those, let me know.
Rework the pre-titles part. A lot of people didn't seem to like it and I want to make it more pleasant to read, as well as add more understanding of the trait-system into it. I want to up the interactions between Kent and Alexus a bit more, make them feel more meaningful - allow Kent to actually become friends with Alexus. Improve the alternate PoV chapters I've written. Especially the redacted chapters. Adjust terminology and make it even across the entire story. Make word choices feel more authentic and immersive. I don't have my notes with me here. But I do know that there are at least two more entries.
