So, I'm a new author trying a couple of different novels now. My reasons are that I've always sorta wanted to try my hand at it, and secondly I'm trying to entertain and possibly attract new users/subscribers to my YouTube channel.
Anyhow, I'm sure being so new at this that my grammar might need a lot of work. Perhaps a lot needs a lot of work. Perhaps I suck at it. I dunno. {Shrugs}
Anyhow, I'm here looking for honest opinions of my first two chapters. They can be read and/or listened to on my YouTube channel:
The first book is aimed at children and is called "A New Life for Lucas". it is about a nine year old boy who goes through a divorce between his parents and then has to take on the stress of a new school, bullies, and more.
There is currently 2 chapters at the time I have posted this post with more planned at a rate of a new chapter every two or three days.
My second novel is more of a survival fiction novel about a teenage girl named Emma Swanson who wakes up hearing her mothers scream in the middle of the night. She listens as she hears a gruesome alien chop and devour her mother from across the hall. Afterwards, she has to take on the beast and try and escape, only to find a lawless and ruthless world of few survivors left in the world as she once knew it. Chapter One is right here:
I would appreciate any feedback, constructive or just plain opinions! Thanks!
