I’ve been having some problems lately when I write new chapters for Violet. When I started writing this, I didn't have a clue what I was doing, and even though I took the time to outline and define quite a few things, I missed an important thing. What is the point? I’ve tried to write in a point, but I can’t wrap my head around a good enough reason for the Dominion to attack other kingdoms or an overall goal for Violet to have. What is the point of being the best at magic if there is no burning need for her to do so?

If you discover this tale on Amazon, be aware that it has been unlawfully taken from Royal Road. Please report it.

I am going to put Violet on hold indefinitely until I can answer those critical questions. Slice-of-life stories are fun to read, but eventually, she needs to start taking a more active role in her life and have personal goals.

I’m not done writing. I am going to take time to properly outline my next story so I will, as a writer, have a sense of accomplishment when I reach specific key plot points. I’ll be posting my next story on Royal Road once I decide what story I want to write.
