Hurrah! Finished My Chapter 1

My heart is swelling right now. At last, I've finished Chapter 1 after seven revisions. Yes! I did it. You might think it to be funny but it's not. The writer of Games of Thrones even said that he doesn't know how many revisions he made before coming up for a chapter of that best-selling and blockbuster story. In every book I've made, I always aimed to give my best. Regardless if a lot of people will like it or not. I know it's only my ability that limits the potential of my stories.

I'm studying hard to improve myself and make my work something that leaves my presence for the people to remember when the day comes the Great Creator calls me home. But if possible, I wish the people to appreciate them and the author, me, while I'm alive. Don't get me wrong, I'm still healthy and able to write as many books but death is like a thief in the night. No one knows when it will come but death himself.

Hmm, why is the mood of my writing turned melancholic? I should be writing something victorious because of what I accomplished. Hmm, maybe because of the instrumental music I'm listening now. Let me change it first to make the mood of my writing better.

There, I've changed it to something more spirited and heart-throbbing, yet, still instrumental. Yeah, this one is really uplifting. Makes me soar with wings like an eagle and fly high up the mountain top where no one can go but myself. Don't ever think I'm high with drugs. No, no, no, no, drug addiction is totally a no. (Crossing arms at my front.) I'm a clean one.

Now, back to my topic at hand. I've been distracted with the effect of the music on my way of thinking. As I've said I feel victorious for finishing my seventh revision of chapter one and find it satisfying. Then, the rest I've written before are all connected to it. Not wasting time and efforts here.

Afterward, I asked my daughter to read it and I solemnly observed her reactions. She was smiling, then became serious, then smiled again, and serious. Then she suddenly said, "I want more." That's the answer I want. Before, she only says 'Nice' when I asked her to read to check if it's good or not, but this time it was 'more' and that is what I wanted to hear the most. Now, she is eagerly waiting for more chapters to read.

Some authors asked other people to read their chapters for them before releasing, however, on my side, I have no one like that, other than my children of which are not the best choice since they can be biased. I even thought of opening a blog and post the new chapters there and ask for beta readers to check it for me before publishing them here. Well, I'll do that later. For now, I will focus on writing the whole arc so, if possible, I can start publishing them next week.

Now, back to my writing.
