Volume 1 - ReEdit finished.
Added 2019-06-13 02:00:43 +0000 UTCI took a small break from writing to go back and edit all of Book 1 on Amazon. Its currently in publishing and will be fully released in 1-2 days, per Amazon's rather slow approval process.
Changes:
All sound effects removed.
All 'Thoughts' are now 'Thoughts', aka, italicized.
The majority of Micheal's inner thoughts have been restructured and removed to make the story flow better.
Typos have been corrected.
This took me 16 hours total of work, haha. I'll see you all tomorrow with an update on here.

Agreed its wiz has very easy to process drafts. I've both read and listened to Chatfieds publishings and they seem fine to me, but I've never read his drafts. A tiered layer system is prevalent in both , but he has a nice structure for the reader where each book is a new layer

2019-06-13 17:18:18 +0000 UTCThe question should be how close are we to the second layer, because if ever 2or 3 books it takes to reach the next layer are you sure sometime in the future you wonβt drop the book for taking to long to finish?

2019-06-13 16:19:53 +0000 UTCBIG thumbs up! This is really nice to see since a lot of authors in this genre don't have an editor or don't edit their own work. Your first drafts tend to be on the cleaner side as it is but it's still nice to see, I wish some other authors in litRPG would take after your example (I'm looking at you Chatfield!). As for removing sound effects, eh. I wasn't in love with them but I didn't have a problem with them. I understand that you're trying to make a product that will sell as well as possible and that readers are fickle and can be turned off by the smallest thing but I still think the book is way better than the majority of the litRPG you see out there so I don't think the sound effects would have changed things a lot for most readers. Oh well. By the way, how far into book 2 is chapter 115? Are we half way finished or not even close? :P
