I am a guy from Denmark who is dumb enough to think he is great at writing Fantasy Novels in English. I am still waiting for someone to tell me otherwise.

I think I must be emotionally dead inside because every time I see one of those "I just killed a character I love. I am heartbroken 💔"
I am like why?
I don't understand those that revel in torturing their characters either.

Soooo How would you feel about me using the word Palantir as the title of an intelligence Agency leader from a magic ruled nation as an easter egg.

It's my birthday today.
I was driving around thinking about my book when I realized that it ends perfectly in Chapter 30.
Even though I was 3k into chapter 31.
A weird way to cap off 8 years of writing the same book. But still my first draft is done.

Here's a question for the abyss.
When is a book tainted but AI?
Where's the line? like what If one write the book, read it makes notes feeds it all to an AI and asks to formulate an actionable plan for editing?
Genuinely curious, I can see use cases for AI helping in certain insurances

I think self-publishing is my only option in terms of my manuscript.
It's gonna be a huge red flag for agents.
Written as first in a series. Not quite standalone.
Rather long. Well above the word count that's comfortable for even epic fantasy.

What's worse when querying:
1. a manuscript that's has a 200k+ word count
2. one that has a cliffhanger ending and is a part of a series?
