@dekreel @seekjustice @valtmy I finished the post for tonight! So I’m going to bed now.
IMMA KAPEEFER! Til we're old and gray!
@seekjustice @valtmy @dekreel Who’s still on? I think I’ll be on reading Seekjustice’s book a while, but I may have to leave any minute. How is everyone?

@seekjustice Hello to you as well. 😉 How the third infinity book coming?

www.jennaterese.comIts coming along slowly, but at least I have something that resembles a plot now.

@seekjustice That’s good; one of the things I struggle with most is creating an interesting plot that actually makes sense.

www.jennaterese.comHaha hope you can make sense of my blubbering rants! 😛
Are you one of the beta readers as well?
@valtmy Yup! *bows*

www.jennaterese.com@jenwriter17 The hardest thing about this one is trying to bring it all together into something that effectively caps off the last two books.
@valtmy Most of it makes sense and a lot of it was said by another beta reader last week. Most of the main critiques have to do with my worldbuilding especially, which I know is pretty subpar.INFP Queen of the Kingdom commander of an army of origami cranes and a sabre from Babylon.
Sorry but I will have to leave now. Bye!

Bye!
Good to know I’m not the only one that thinks so then. But worldbuilding is very crucial (one could say it is the heart of) for a dystopian story. And any changes you make (esp in the tech level) can cause ramifications in your plot (e.g. suddenly the conflict or problem doesn’t make sense because it can be solved or avoided via tech).
Since Les Mis was based in a historical time, I’m expecting a modern retelling set in the future to update and change the way events happen and the way the characters do things that reflect the advancement of technology. BBC’s Sherlock which puts Holmes in modern times with cell phones and all) is a good example.
