Hey everyone, I want to take a mont and honestly talk to you.
While rewriting the novel, I realized that I'm planning to make so very big changes. These changes may improve the story overall, but they could also affect so chapters that many of you enjoyed earlier. Because of that, I didn't want to decide everything on my own. I really want to know if I'm thinking in the right direction.
The first change I'm considering is changing the point of view. Right now, the story is written in first person. I'm thinking about converting it to third person, because it will allow to show more tension, expand scenes, and properly describe what's happening around Yuuta, not just inside his head.
At the sa ti, I'm worried that this might reduce so of the raw emotions—Yuuta's direct feelings, his inner thoughts, and the way his bond with Erza is expressed. I'm not sure if the trade-off is worth it, and I'd really like to hear what you think.
The second change is about pacing and drama. When I first started writing, I added many scenes without fully understanding story flow. So monts—like the school interview, the mall thugs, the Zareth backstory, and a few other subplots—might feel unnecessary or distracting now. I'm thinking about removing or trimming these parts so the story feels more focused and engaging. But again, I'm unsure if removing them will hurt the emotional buildup, so your opinion matters a lot here.
The last change is about the structure of the novel. Currently, the volus are divided based on chapter numbers, not on story arcs. I'm planning to remove the current volu system and rebuild it so the entire Foundation Arc exists as one complete part, and the next phase clearly becos the Journey Toward Nova. I believe this will make the story easier to follow and more satisfying, but I want to know if this makes sense to you as a reader.
I'm doing all of this because I want to recreate the novel in a better way—not to erase the past, but to improve what already exists. Still, I might be wrong.
So please tell honestly:
Do you think I'm doing the right thing?
Are these changes sothing you'd like to see, or should I be more careful with certain parts?
Thank you for trusting with your ti and emotions. Your feedback truly helps grow as an author ❤️
