Off to a strong start with this one. Nasty, brutish and short - just how I like them

Hey! Appreciate you! I’m polishing Ch. 2 now and aiming for Tuesday morning. I’ll announce in Notes the moment it’s up.

Chapter one ✅️ Definitely an interesting start with the prison setup and musings on life behind the bars with its particular intricacies such as gangs. It vaguely reminded me of S.King's "Green Mile" and "The Shawshank Redemption" in terms of the subject matter and I was into it. The scene where he discoveres the girl - I though thematically good but the prose could have corresponded using more immediacy and tighter phrasing. But! I'm not an expert of course. Just someone who has been recently taking more interest in the craft. Curious to see how this develops.

Hey thanks for the feedback! I truly appreciate it. This is a project in current development and I’m certainly no expert either! I’m very open to constructive criticism that can make it better💜
