'the alarm buzzed nosily'


I suggest you don't continue a damn thing until you make sure nothing has any spelling errors or doesn't make sense..

or you can just put the whole shit together, call it a rough draft, and throw it at somebody and pay them cash to have them do it

good luck with your book but I'm not interested..

In general it is pretty good. Obviously the spelling errors will be checked before publication. For me though, the way you describe everything is pretty bland.


Just one example to give you an idea:

The noise ceased and his mother signed before rolling back over to sleep.

His body didn’t want to move, but Mack knew that his mother wouldn’t shut the alarm off. She was still suffering the effects of a drug-induced high from the previous night, and the only thing she was capable of doing was producing a groaning sound of disapproval. So, with no other choice but to attempt to withstand the drumming in his head, Mack braved the cold air to return the silence. As he flicked the alarm off he heard his mother let out a half-hearted sigh before she rolled over and fell back to sleep.



It's slightly longer, but it sets the scene and gives it a bit more of an atmosphere.

no he took a urban ficition book and made it too intelligent.you have to understand your audience.thats why young jezzy goes platinum and canibus goes wood.the audience who reads urban ficition are mostly ghetto people with lack of education or educated people curious about how people in the ghetto think.

How is that too intelligent?

I wasn't trying to hate or anything, but if you add in a bit more descriptive writing to make the whole shit have a bit more depth, imagery and atmosphere then you will appeal to a larger scale of readers.

If you think your way will appeal to the specific audience you are targeting then do you and props for that.

Yeah and nick, your attention to detail started out nicely but quickly fell off. You couldn't rewrite his whole book but you'd be a nice addition to it I'm sure lmfao

rofl, it wasn't even meant to be anything special.. just a point to show that it could be improved. I beasted that in like 5 minutes.

Given enough time I could rewrite his book. But that would be to a way I like it. I am sure if you rewrote it, then it would be to a way you liked. And the way CALI has wrote it is to the way he likes.

Its all difference of opinion, but if he's already got it lined up with some publisher then his way has apparently appealed to some people.
