@RavenRock67 Oh no! I am not about to enter a popularity contest! The demographics I am interested is very satisfied: me. Lol.

Thank you for the review on Earth Celestial Dawn, your suggestions are very much welcomed and will be used, thanks again
Robert_Bennet
Your critique is great , I am on travel and only have my cellphone but I will do your edits when I get home next week, thanks.
Jorkam
@Robert_Bennet No need to thank me. So far, I've only pointed out some glaring technical details. But the going will be harder! Lol. @kemorgan65 asked me to help with editing. Unfortunately, previous engagements limit my ability to devote a lot of time to do so. I'll do what I can, in the short time available.

I think i have a very good story here but it is pretty obvious I wrote it with very little research into the technical aspects. Your involvement and input are very much welcomed and appreciated. Thank you

Hi Jorkam.
Thanks for the votes on The Raven and the Wraith 2. It’s my first time (besides Book 1, of course) ever writing in First Person, and I’m discovering that I really enjoy it.
This Raven and the Wraith series have such short chapters because I’m actually writing them on my phone and sending them as texts to friends and family. So they get a Chapter every other day or so, as a text on their phone.
Needless to say, this story is intended to fit that format. Meaning it’s supposed to be fast-paced, goofy, light-hearted fun.
Anyway, I hope your studies in Martial Arts are going well and that you’re able to master your both your outer AND your inner energies.
Jorkam
@Rahvin Yes, I noticed your chapters are shorter than usual. Please, do not stop A Touch of Lightning. I enjoy it a lot! There is a guy here who is said invented a genre for cell phone. His name is Takatsu, Taka. Don't know if you had read anything by him. Thanks for your best wishes! Happy journey!

Hi @Jorkam Thanks for your recent votes on #ShadowOfThePastTrilogy ∞ The Displaced! I hope you're enjoying the read. Don't hesitate to comment or ask questions, I'd love to hear what you think! :-)

One other thing;: through visiting your Wattpad profile I found Xuelie; Blood Of Tears. I just finished reading it last night. Such a cool, unusual book!!!
Jorkam
@Rahvin Yes, I intend to start reading soon. I am reading only three books at the moment, so very soon I will. My comment was pointing out the fact you are adding more work to you load. Hopefully it won't be too much. Since you don't know when a new idea is going to strike, the notebook should be your constant partner.
Rahvin
Hi Jorkam,
First, thanks again for all the awesome feedback, comments, ideas, and thoughts on A Touch Of Lightning! It is more encouraging and motivating than you could know!
I've finally decided to launch my Patreon page, and I'm super excited as I know having patrons will definitely force me to stick to a regular, scheduled release cycle for the chapters for the various books I'm writing.

If you could take a look, and possibly send it on to others who may like my style, that would be awesome! If you can do that, I would like to reward you with some private chapters for a few of the book I'm writing (if you're interested).
Let me know whacha think!
Rahvin
No that's a very good point and very valid. What I'm actually doing is publishing each chapter of A Touch Of Lightning Book 1 up both here in Wattpad and also on my Patreon page. So it's going to help me finish book 1 and get to my goal of having my books published for sale on Amazon.
I definitely like and I'm going to use the idea of keeping a notebook handy and writing down all the new ideas as they come, then setting them aside and focusing back on getting Book 1 completed and edited.
Jorkam
@Rahvin yes, it seems like a good idea, although I am not sure how it is going to help to get published. This page seems very useful to a writer with several books in circulation, to get more exposure. Don't get upset, but I believe it could be a distraction from your main objective right now, which should be finish ATOL. Not saying it is not good, just saying, from a professional perspective, your priority should be mainly get the first book in the series published. For that, you are going to need at least a draft finished. You have ahead now the most boring part, the editing part, although it is vital for any book. You should keep a notebook to record all new ideas, so you can process them AFTER you carry out the first part of the task without losing them. I know the hyper-abundance of ideas can be detrimental and became an obstacle. Many good writers had fallen, victim of this problem. This is just my opinion, feel free to disregard it if you feel that is not your situation. Good luck!

Thanks for adding THE VISITOR to your reading list.
It is hard SF with very realistic descriptions of life in orbit. The science is as accurate as possible and the plot plausible. It is set in the late 2020s.
The story follows a dynamic female astronaut who finds something unexpected in low-Earth orbit during the first ever space junk elimination mission. The object goes on to change her life and the world.
Hope you enjoy it.
Tony

@TonyHarmsworth Hi there! I really love so-called Hard Science Fiction. I am also glad SCi-Fi had gained so much popularity of late. I still remember a time when readers of it where looked sideways. The change is astounding. Hopefully soon I'll start reading your story, which I have a feeling will be awesome. Ciao.
Rahvin
Jorkam my man! Glad to see you're still following A Touch Of Lightning!
