I am, but only to watch content, not to make videos. I’m too old for that lol. I do think as I get to the point where I am publishing my books (if I make it that far) TikTok might be very useful to sell them

I also wanted to ask. In my novel, is anyone else having a difficult time with the parts in italics? another critique partner seems very confused by what they are. she seems to really like flashbacks. They are not flashbacks, they are intended to be told to Monica. I guess I put them in italics because they are very vivid memories of importance to Lola. Kind of like someone telling you about their day and then there is this really exciting drama filled part! But, just wondering if that style is bothering anyone else or if it seems confusing or just not good.

I see how she could think they’re flashbacks, as some stories italicize to tell a backstory. However, in your case, it’s Lola telling a memory to Monica. The only other way I could see you doing it differently, is just having breaks where Lola states or it’s told that she’s retelling a story. Example:
Lola then drifted off back into her memories…
Lola paused, took a breath, and continued…
The chapter lengths are fine, so starting a separate chapter just for her to explain her story doesn’t look like it’d work - same with making a page break. So, italics have worked so far or you can use character breaks
AND KNIGHTY IS BACK!!! Sorry for the delay! Went to the Calgary Stampede to see Kevin- hehe and rest of Alberta for family and when I got home took a cold with us and have been recovering since. But I am back and have sent off some more Blood & Cinders! -It get rought from here on out and I mean that in more ways than one. I wrote this story in a rushed feaver and it could use some fleshing so please feel free to point out where and what.

sure, I’ll resend! It is just chapter 1 that I broke up because it was super long. But I will resend in case you wanted to peek at it again.
Yay! We are so excited to have you back! And no worries, life gets busy and that seems like a lot was going on. I hope you enjoyed your time even if you still got sick. I’ll share a few chapters with you so you can get caught up to everyone else. No rush on them of course.

I haven’t had any issues with the parts in italics, the only thing that’s make me somewhat confused is the titles that are above them. I don’t see how that part fits into the story, but it doesn’t bother me enough to even make a comment on it normally if you hadn’t asked.
