Thank you for clarifying that paragraph. Do you intend a slight rewrite to clarify?
Maybe I should. I didn't think that I would need to when I wrote it. The blurb doesn't focus on the sexual relationships. But maybe it does need clarification. Thanks. That book ended up being listed in the Erotica categories, but the story is more central than the sex in my view. I appreciate your comments. I am doing a major revision of that book right now, at this very moment as I sit at the coffee shop this morning.
Should I wait for your rewrite before I buy it then?
Wow, I would. I don't like to tell someone to wait, but yes, if you really want to read it, I would appreciate you waiting for the revision. It should be a few more days. I can't guarantee that you will like it any better, but it has fewer mistakes. The Wooden Sword was the first, and the least well prepared for publication. I did interim corrections a few days ago and published them, so the version available today is better than a few weeks ago, but there's still half the book to be edited. I don't want to set your expectations too high though. I feel better about the edited version and I really appreciate you asking about waiting. It's always up to you. I write for me but publish for readers and you know that my stories are heavily weighted toward personal choice.
I believe that I will wait for the revised edition. Thank you.
Please tell me when the rewrite is done so that I may grab the book.
I will. The revisions are done and I am working on the production tasks now. I expect it to be live tomorrow, but I will send a blog post as soon as it is.
Sounds good I am looking forward to this new series of yours. The Wooden Sword series almost like it is LitRPG.
