So I believe I have finally finished writing my first book that I plan to publish. At the moment I am looking into artists to do some sketches or artwork. In the meantime if there is anyone here who is interested I am looking for a few people who would like to give it a read and let me know what you think. This is not your standard book, it is 70 pages of fantasy rhyming poetry following the same characters. Think of a Lord of the Rings setting but set to rhyme and rhythm. Every line in the entire book is 9 syllables and its an ABAB rhyme scheme.
I do not consider this a Christian book, but its doesn't contain anything objectionable (except for violence), but I wouldn't recommend it for kids either way.
If you want to read my "epic poem" let me know and I will PM you a google drive link.
I'm looking for input in a few areas:
- Do you enjoy the story aspect? - How do you feel about the characters? - Do you feel there is anything missing? - What do you think of the flow? - As a whole would you want to read more of this?

Since I consider you all friends, I thought I would share this with you. I received the first draft of the artwork for my first chapter, and so far its looking great. The artist's name is Rumyana Zarkova:

Whoa dude that is amazing! I love it. Thanks, I was very excited when I saw the art. Considering this is just a very rough concept I cant wait to see the final version.

Awesome Blake! from what i read you clearly are gifted at writing. Great to see it happening. Thanks, I had thought about writing a whimsical space pirate story in a similar style but I should probably take a break first
