《Blackthorne》Not a chapter, but there will be one tomorrow. This is a heads up about the long-awaited overhaul mentioned like a year ago, and a poll.
Advertisement
As some few of you know, this story is slated for an overhaul before any of it starts to be published on Amazon. The overhauled version is what will appear there, and as such I do need to focus more on that than this original first draft version. However, the web novel first draft is the basis for the light novel version I intend to craft.
As such, I would like a little insight. Please choose in the polls and write a comment to let me know what you think.
Please note: This story will be overhauled and updated despite people who hate the story itself for some reason or another. I mostly just want input on how you readers on Royal Road would like to see me continue it. You know, since it only exists on this site at the moment.
If Option 3 or 4 is the most popular, the overhaul will begin updating tomorrow. If it is any of the others, I will hold off until January to begin the overhaul update process and Blackthorne updates (Other than tomorrow's update which is to make up for this poll teasing people into thinking it would be a chapter.)
The reasons for the overhaul are many, but I do feel there is a lot more I could be doing with this story. It deserves to be its best version.
Some stuff needs to be stripped out or expaned upon. Side characters need to be fleshed out more. More adventuring needs to happen. More tense moments and difficulties need to occur. More comedic snuggle time, stuff like that. There are also scenes that were not included in the original since people kept complaining that they did not like the fact that I kept pulling focus away from Scott for other characters. Well, the story has other characters so they need their scenes.

It's a global catastrophe. The least I can do is make it look like one, when we finally get back to the world gone mad part. (The first part will be expanded a bit first, though.)
Anyway, cast your votes and comment in the comments!
