I hit the 20k word minimum for the ONC 2026 requirements with Splinters, which is my explanation for the mass exodus of chapters. It's the home stretch now!

@SavvyDave Truthfully, I really enjoy how Bob is written, because his inner thoughts are transparent, he's trustworthy, and he's a morally straight guy, but there is so much mystery surrounding his life, his past, and his relationships that always leave a question mark over everything! I think if you leave it, it adds to the comedic sense of his character, but if you change it, you build more on the skills he previously developed and the shrouded background that you easter egg through the interactions with other characters.

@SavvyDave I think that cowardice wouldn't quite respect the verisimilitude of Bob's character, but I think that mercy definitely would. If Bob didn't want to hurt the guy any more than he had to, and consistently doesn't use a gun when he doesn't have to (or even when he should) than I think writing him to intentionally choose not to use the gun would add to the mystery behind his character!

@SavvyDave I actually really like that idea! I did think it was an interesting choice for him to hit up that club with no lethal weapon, but I do think that due to his skill, he's kind of a lethal weapon on his own.

On an unrelated note, you speak Spanish?! That's awesome! Sorry though I clearly only speak English.

Hi! So I just want to ask that what is overall verdict on my book so far? Were does it fall flat? And where can I improve?

SavvyDave

Hmmm... Potential spinoffs sounds like a great idea!

@SavvyDave That's a good point. Either way, I think you're building an interesting world here, and even if we don't continue with Bob, it could be cool to see more stories taking place in his universe

@SonniKennady At first, I wanted it to be a standalone but I noticed that some things in the plot has the potential to guarantee a second book. But, let's see where the story goes.
