Basics

This is a space opera. This is not
what I want you to write.
Someone will read what you write. This is guaranteed. They may not like what they read, but they will pick it up and read it. They may not even crack the book open, just look at the back, but this counts as reading.

That being said, my goal for you is to make sure that they do more than just look at the back and decide that this work is horrible. My goal is to help push your writing over the top. I can't guarantee that you'll be a bestseller. I can't guarantee that people aren't still going to look at the back and decide that it's not what they want to read. That will happen anyway.


Part of that is title, which will be discussed later, but that's beside the point. I want your writing to be something that is recommended to a reader's friends as one of the greatest books of all time, not just another space opera or fantasy novel about an orphan boy who discovers that he has mystical powers and gets the girl in the end.

My goal is to get you to create art.
