www.jennaterese.comApril 17, 2018 at 9:54 pm #71060@skredder @seekjustice Well, I’ve got chapter 5 here! 🙂
I have a couple questions though: 1) do you like Jax’s POV enough to have more of it? 2) originally my story was set in Japan, so most if not all of the characters’ names are Japanese. Do you think I should change this now that it’s set in America?

www.jennaterese.comApril 27, 2018 at 12:08 pm #71726Hey there @jenwriter! I read your first chapter, and I really enjoyed it. And I think I just sent a request to access the rest of the chapters… I’m not sure though. My google account doesn’t like me sometimes. 🙂
Anyways, I really liked the first chapter, and I’ve got a few thoughts if you don’t mind me sharing them.
First, I really liked how you introduced the action and hinted at things early in the story(like the “illegal-size soda”, and Jax Oarson staring at the cross Rin was carrying. One thing I would change, is during the breakout/police-chase scenes, pacing was just a bit to slow. I’d recommend going over the doc and removing unnecessary words, and trying to keep descriptions as simple as possible. It just helps keep things easy to understand for the reader, who doesn’t have the author’s POV and understanding of the scene.
Other than that, I really liked your 1st chapter. It was fun and interesting to read, and I already want to know more about Rin and officer Oarson. 😉
Keep up the great work!

April 27, 2018 at 2:02 pm #71730Hey @jenwriter17, sorry to bother you again, but would you mind giving me access to all the chapters you have up so far on your book? I requested access for chapter 6 and I’ve read chapter 1, but I can’t see the other ones(forgive me if it’s just something I’m overlooking in Docs, I don’t use them very often, xD). Anyway, happy writing! 🙂
