Summary:A boxer makes his comeback to the ring. A man makes his comeback to his life.
This is going to be a novel (that or a novella, I haven't decided quite yet) based on the poem I've written of the same name. Let me know what you think, as far as general comments as well as the specific aspects of it (use of flashback, language, etc.). Chapters: |

Summary:A boxer makes his comeback to the ring. A man makes his comeback to his life.
EDIT 2/1: As noted, this is probably the final edit of this. I'm actually thinking of making this into a novella or even a novel, and I'm curious as to what you all think.
I made some changes, made the voice a little more consistent (I think) and I added in a few different phrases that may be more metaphorical, and I'm curious if they work. Also, I changed the ending a bit, and I'm also interested in seeing if that works too.
So yeah, any more feedback is great.Chapters: |
