《Earth to Rae》Important Update
Advertisement
First of all, I'm sorry for no word for two weeks. I took down the novel so I could better focus on the editing and revisions I was doing, but I didn't think it would take this long.
An explanation of why I wanted to start this process.
1. Small grammar and punction errors riddled all the chapters. Although they were small, and probably not noticeable to the average reader, there were many of them.
2. Many missed opportunities for development, for characters and worldbuilding. I also mean Rae's skills too, and that leads me to my 3rd point.
3. No sense of discovery for Rae's powers in the beginning except for Chapter 3 - Sixth Sense. One of my favorite things to read about in RPG novels is when the MC adapts and experiments with their powers in the beginning.
4. Probably the biggest reason, and that is skills/power levels. I wrote the skills and stats without forethought and would have been a huge detriment and roadblock when writing future chapters. It's not like cultivation novels where there's a general title for how powerful someone is, e.g, Stage 5 Gold Core. For LitRPG there's a quantifiable number of how powerful someone is (Although skills do matter, even the skills have a number attached to them, e.g, levels). I just need some time think about it.
At first, I contemplated a rewrite, but after much thought, I decided not to. I really like the current story, so instead, I decided to do an editing and revisions overhaul. For the new version, I will be trying to fix all of these and adding new things as well. I've already completed the edits/revisions up to Chapter 7.
New things I will (I've already done) add/change:
1. Rae starts out with Shadow Magic instead of Dark Magic. Dark Magic will not be going away though.

2. Resistances will not be listed out. Instead, they will only be shown if they have a change in a category. This will be so that it won't be like "Oh, so there are only so and so elements," and put myself in a creative box.
3. I've written a (a few paragraphs of old stuff, but mostly new) new chapter. It's Chapter 4, it comes after Chapter 3 - Sixth Sense, hence, all the other chapters will have their number bumped up. There might be more new written chapters, who knows?
4. I've added many new lines and changed a few to sound better throughout Prologue - Chapter 7. Ranging from tiny lines only expanding on Rae and other characters to foreshadowing larger things. Although, Chapter 1 - Chapter 2 have the least changes. Mostly just a heavy polish. Starting at Chapter 3 is where the changes take place. Prologue only has a heavy reduction. Reduced about 500 words. A lot, in the beginning, did not need to be said.
5. Changing Selena to Half Human/Elf. Important. I was actually planning on making her a Half-Elf in the beginning but scrapped it for some reason. I forget why though.
6. Because Selena is a Half-Elf, The Humble Foxes, and Dark Cloaks initial relationship impression will change. This is kind of minor since there were only mentioned and seen in two chapters, but it's important in the long run.
7. Some Changes to his Rae's Appraisal Skill to make it less OP.
8. May or may not overhaul everyone's stats, I'm still thinking on this one. If there are changes to someone's stats, one will definitely be Yva's.
There will probably be a lot more changes, as I've still 14 chapters left.
After I'm done and have written past Chapter 20, I will make a new page, as I feel there are enough changes (and more to come) to warrant it and keep this one for posterity's sake. Then, I'll mass release the first 20 chapters in one day (or two), and we'll go on from there.

I know a lot of you were waiting for Chapter 21, like, a lot. So much so, that when I dropped the two edited Prologue and Chapter 1 that I received my first 0.5 and multiple 1/2 ratings T_T. A lot of you probably feel that the original versions were fine and only want the newest chapter, but I want to put the best out here even though its a hobby. Just think of it this way, better to do this at Chapter 20 than 100 or 200 chapters down the line lol.
Oh yeah, if you've any issues that you want to bring up about the novel, now's the time to do it! If I feel they're appropriate, I'll definitely incorporate them. I've already done so with a few ideas in the new version.
I *think* that's all I wanted to say...
Anyways, sorry again for the disappearance, and I hope you'll wait a few more weeks for Chapter 21.
