Hey everyone Kaede here!
So big giant update on what's been going on.
So my wife's arm has gotten worse, she's now on LTD which is great but now she has to jump through the Social Security Hoop which will be in Feb through the phone. Overall we've just been trying to get her to the best independence she can be at with losing her dominant hand and arm which as you can imagine takes time and a lot of energy.
But! The good news is she has brand new energy to help me re-structure the book!!!
After looking it over she realized it was missing a lot of world building and the structure of time wasn't how she wanted it and I agree whole heartedly. As of right now she's using along with my own editing Dragon and is writing the book herself, as where I can do a lot to get the basic structure the entire world of Ileria is her creation and so being able to see her writing again even if it's voice to text is wonderful.
Did you know this story is from Royal Road? Read the official version for free and support the author.
Now here is the skinny, the first 3 chapters will be updated once this is fully done and she's satisfied. What this means is that this book-- fully edited and revamped will be availible on Amazon Kindle Unlimited. Hopefully it can support photos because she's been SLOWLY working on the artwork for the book as well, which now drawing with her left hand has been mildly disasterously funny but heartbreaking too.
Now she can't actually make anything off these books, so the really awful part is she's signed over all rights and royalties with no recompence to myself. Which she's done to ALL of her novels from the past too (she wrote Romance novels before her disability).
All in all, she really just wants to get this story out there, and GUESS WHAT SHE HAS ANOTHER LIGHT NOVEL COMING!
It's called "Why be a Saint when I can be a Sorceress?" It's a romantic Comedy Slice of Life and I can't wait to see how the first few chapters come out.
We want to thank you readers, thank you so much for your support and help.
But we have a question!
What's a good price for a Light Novel such as ours? We're thinking there is gonna be at least 400 pages, maybe 100k words or 150k words.
Given all the content and world building she's doing (Guys serieously the first chapter alone is extended, 3 more chapters were added after the first, and things are just exploding and I can't get her to stop haha).
Take the poll and help us figure that out!
