Alright, it's time to get down to business.
I once read an article about how to make your writing better, and it intrigued me, because I wanted to see if I could do it. Here's what it said:
"If you are serious about getting your writing published today, you need quick sharp answers to the following questions: In what section of a bookstore or retailer's website will your book be found? Which authors can your work be likened to? In three sentences or less, what is your novel about?"
Let's see if I can do it!
Question 1: In what section of a bookstore or retailer's website will my book be found?
Answer: Well, my book would be found in the Dystopian/Post-Apocalyptic Shelf/Area. If there is none, most likely the Adult Fiction section. I think my story is too violent for the Young Adult shelf. Loll. As for a retailer's website, it would be in the "Book" section. Silly question :P
Question 2: Which Authors can your work be likened to?
Answer: I honestly do not know. When my work was posted on this writing website called, Inkpop, a few people considered my story to be a more violent version of Suzanne Collins', Hunger Games. Which flattered me tremendously, but I dont think my story and hers are alike at all. Except for the fact there is some kind of central control, and violent children. Loll.
Question 3: In three sentences or less, what is my novel about?
Answer: Oh boy. This is gonna be a hard one. Lemme give it a shot.
My story is about a girl who lived a ordinary life, until some bombs dropped and basically blew up her life. Then this unknown military unit, kidnaps her younger siblings--as well as the other children in her neighborhood--and shoots her mom right in front of her. Amber Sky takes place five years after that incident and Sara's mission (Sara is my main character) is to get her younger siblings back before they turn into vicious, ruthless soldiers.
AHA! Victory is mine >:3 that is a serious basic summary of my story. Doesn't give you any spoliers about the story, yet gives you infor at the same time #mindblown
Anywho, time for me to go and get to work. Toodles (:
