Anthony Jones III's latest update for Detective Diaries

Aug 7, 2016

  Mornin’, detectives.

  Welcome to our 14th Detective Sunday! I’ve been on Inkshares for more than 14 weeks, and I’ve learned a lot in my time here. I’m making strides to be more professional, I’m working on my writing craft by reading other amazing authors on here, and I’m learning about the hardships you can face when running a pre-ordering campaign. It all seem to boil down to whether your book will be marketable or not, and that’s a heavy statement coming from me. For those who followed Detective Diaries recently, I thank you for doing so--I hope not to fail you. Over the next few weeks, there will be changes in this campaign. These said changes is me re-organizing my chapters, updating the page of Detective Diaries, changing the video I have on the page, and just simply put--being more active. If I stay active and work hard, we can reach Quill overtime, and potentially even 750 orders if the momentum flows our way. I’ve done plenty of drafts behind the scenes for this book and I can never seem to find that right formula in the intro that screams "read me!". I believe this time, with a formula of chapters between all my drafts, I can do something amazing. I’m getting that final draft feeling from these revised chapters. I will explain in a update early in the week about what chapter is coming out and the direction of the storytelling, but for now, continue to share, recommend, leave reviews, and whatever else to expose Detective Diaries--I’d appreciate it!

  Until next time, A.J.III.
