I've always loved dragons, but have felt disappointing that there's so little media with dragons as the main protagonist (90% of the time, they're delegated to pets/mounts/side characters)
So a couple of years ago I decided to start writing a story that's been in my head and two years, 225 pages and 120k words later, I've finished it!
If this is something you'd be interested in, I'm looking for beta readers to read it and give general feedback on things like characters and plot before I think about publishing. It'll be on google docs so you can be completely anonymous while you're reading! I have my beta readers! Thank you to everyone who volunteered!
March 15th Update:
Hello hello! In January I sent you all a link to my novel: Lost Crescents and I just wanted to update you on the progress!
Since releasing the novel to beta readers, I have extensively changed some plot elements, cleaned up a tonne of grammar, and cut down 5,000 words! Thank you to everyone who helped in some small part.
I have now hired a final beta reader who has two weeks from today to give some feedback. Once I get that feedback, it's full steam ahead to get this thing published!
The synopsis is written along with the blurb and query letter. I have a long list of UK publishing agents and once the final feedback has been taken onboard and implemented, I'll start mailing!
If you guys have any feedback on any of the novel, please let me know so I can do the last bits of polishing. Other than that, if you want to be kept updated on the next few major milestones, please let me know!
Blurb:
The following link is for the blurb and first couple of pages: <<THERE ARE A LOT OF ERRORS IN THIS EXTRACT>> See my latest post for recent updates on my progress :)

Trigger warnings: Moderate gore (undead zombies, blood magic), violence, fluff

Blurb:
The race of dragons is holding onto life by its last few threads. Their god is dead, murdered in a great city that now lies in the hands of former slaves, and what little remains of the population now lies fractured. Hounded by dragonslayers and cultists alike, much of the newest generation of dragons only seek to maintain the precarious future that lies before them. However with a new, dark threat creeping to the surface, a select few individuals are blissfully unaware that their actions are setting the stage for cataclysmic events the likes of which the world has never seen.
