Chapter 1

A Chapter by Cece

                My family couldn’t handle a kality. They were used to normalcy. They had a routine every day posted on the family screen in the den:

                8: Wake Up. Straighten Cot. Cleanse. Adorn Amulet.

                9: Eat Breakfast.

                10: Mining.

                12: Supper.

                13: Studies.

                14: Free.

                17: Dinner.

                18: Retreat to Cot. Cleanse. Remove Amulet.

               

                That schedule I stuck to for all of my 15 years. Every single day I did the same things and itched for something new and exciting. During my free time, I’d read books quietly to myself. I adored books and KNEW that one day, I would be a kality.

                During my free period I would ride Mary-Pig down to the Hall of Arts with Jashly and we would listen to the readings by the kalities, waiting until just about dinner to stand in line for their autograph. Jashly and I would read to each other later, mimicking the voices and gestures of the well-known kalities. We both aspired to read in front of people, making them smile as our voices pronounced the words of the book as the kalities did.

                Kalities were the most adored beings. They read out of many books, some written by them, others written for them, and everyone came to listen to their voices which made the books almost come alive in your mind. Becoming a kality was extremely hard. You had to be good, extremely good. You had to get a keilah to promote you and then people had to fall in love with your voice. Kalities had come about in 4000, when “singers” had become boring.

Thank you for writing it.
I would firstly set out my environment and background- bring the readers into your world and keep them there. Then define your characters- what are their reasons for being? They feels and motives.

You can really run with this story- I'll keep reading! :)
