Hello, I've been looking around like a madman for soon to be 15 mins now. There's this book called " A Fire in My Heart: Kurdish Tales ", that I just can't seem to find any free pdf, epub or any other digital free version of. Has any1 got a good torrent side that could possibly have something niche like that?
As someone who has been attempting to pick up the writers pen for a few days now, I have got 3 questions before I take my step.
If I intend to write a fantasy novel for a webnovel site, do I follow the exact same structure as I would've, if it was for making an actual traditional fantasy book like LoTR. Do they differ somehow? I'm used to reading webnovels that typically has many different arcs, not something as detailed as some of the great established fantasy books.
If I actually do intend on writing to get my book published, how popular even is the typical harem fantasy tropes with a system? Don't judge me, I have never actually read the greats, but I have read many webnovels that has taken inspiration from, aswel s watched their movies.
Now here is the question that will determine wether I take my step forward.
Age. I'm currently pushing 30 and for about a few months I have REALLY yearned for writing my own fantasy novel. It's only a few days ago that I have started doing my researchand it has left me in this deep rabbit hole that I for the first time in my life actually truly feel like learning, mastering Nd having fun with.
The point is: is it even worth it for me to start learning about it and writing my own novel at this age?
This is what has been bothering me, cause I know writing is an art and art can't be memorized, it's to be mastered diligently.
So how do you actually do it? I really wanna write my own fantasy novel, but what I'm writing for is not what the usual lord of the rings readers are interested in. ( I assume )
Also, what do you focus on first when building the story? I'm trying to write a fantasy harem webnovel. Do you focus on Characters first? Magic System or world building? How much do you even spend on world building and magic system.
Do you plot out every arc from start to end with a red-thread through it all?
last question. Do you use writing software like scriveler or plottr and how has that actually helped you?
