Thanks for your comment! I was really debating if I should even post this at all. There's actually a bunch of this I would change, even down to the overall story world, characters, and story arc. However, it felt super dishonest editing it and making it seem like I was "talented" from the beginning. I'm a different writer than I used to be. This was literally 7 years ago and around the same time I wrote "The Good Ol Days Are Dead" short. Even "Son of Two Thieves" was written a 3 years ago, despite the book coming out last year. I had no real consistent voice and was super green. However, that's why I thought it would be great to keep it the way it was. I wanted to show that I had grown in my skills and thought it would give someone else encouragement to keep going. Whether that happens or not is to be seen.
