So we finally have all of the tributes! I'm not exactly sure when to start publishing my chapters, but I'm proud to say I was able to finish District Four's Reaping today! I just felt like throwing in this little update just so that you guys know and don't get mini heart attack when I start posting Reapings. It's been a long challenge getting tributes, but I thank you all for bearing with me and submitting.
Sadly, most of the tributes sent in were all around the seventeen mark, geniuses, and good with plants/healers. I'll try not to make everything seem so repetitive because of this, but this means that probably more tributes will die in the Bloodbath because virtually everyone can't handle a weapon. This leaves me with a lot of wiggle room regarding Training, but the Games should be very interesting as well.
I'm going to delete the other Update Chapters because I really don't think you guys will have any interest in them anymore. But I'm happy to say that the sponsorship and Capital chapters shall be staying the way they are, and if you're reading this after I deleted those chapters, here's what they are:
SponsorshipFor sponsorship, I'm going to be basing these off of the reviews I get and character development. The more support a tribute has, the mor elikely I am to keep them alive, but if they get themselves into a sticky situation, then they may end up dead. The whole survival thing will be based off of what they get themselves into based off of the personalities they have and how the Games effect them in the Arena.
Capital Chapters
I'll be ranging from 3-4 perspectives each Capital chapter. I'm going to add chapters like what happens at dark whether it be between private training and the interviews, or the night before the Games, or the night before Training, etc. I'm hoping to have only one or two chapters like this and then move back into the actual plot. I'm going to make sure that every tribute gets a perspective in the Capital. By perspective, I'm hoping you'll understand this yourself once I post the first chapter later this week. It will be based off of third person so that we can further explain the character's thoughts as well as the people around them's thought's without having a break in the page to say "Some Other Tributes POV". If you don't like this, giev it a try for me because you may end up likin git. And if you don't like it still, you can just leave this story because I've wasted too much time writing to restart the entire book for you. I'm here to please everyone, not just you. This sounds rude, but I can't help it. If we come to some mutual agreement with this, then we all win. Let's make this story a good one, not a messed up one.
So when I post my first Reaping Chapter, don't hesitate to lash out at me because I don't want to keep making mistakes with each Reaping and chapter I write. And please be sure to review because it's your reviews that inspire me to write. Each review I get fills me up with happiness and I smile. It's always good to know you have support and that someone likes my story because I judge my work very hard. You know what they say, the hardest critic of yourself is yourself.
That's all I have for you today! If you guys really want, I'll post the first set of Reapings, but if not, expect an update probably Friday night unless I surprise you guys tomorrow or something. I haven't worked out all of the details regarding a posting schedule yet (whoops).
