Hullo! Oh, I love fairy tale re-tellings!
So, here’s some food for the thought.
- What is the goal of your story? I know you’re going for the “saving Neverland” theme, but what do your characters get out of it? Eternal childhood? A lesson? A reward? Adventure?
- Secondly, what does the reader get from this story? (Basically, what are you trying to say with this story?)
- Thirdly, why people with Alzheimer’s? Do you have a particular reason for this choice? The protagonist(MC) is the center of the story. If you don’t have an interesting protagonist, you won’t have an interesting story. So choose wisely before you decide on a main character.
Now, also, is the writing above supposed to be an entire chapter, or snippets… because it’s a little confusing. I know it’s a rough draft, but consider going through it and reading it aloud to try and pinpoint some spots that could be fixed.
Other than that, good luck! If you have any more questions, feel free to tag me and let me know! I’m happy to help. 😉
