npub10n9kwhemskr7uzjrp7ltr4nj9j6fdl5vkv0u8vc56u9tsfwh84hsrdtjug (npub10n9…tjug) I’ve done a similar thing where the first chapter is basically a confession of how the protagonist feels, then the rest of story tries to explain why.
But I have this nagging feeling that it might be better not to do that. It did it to grab the reader so they know upfront what the central theme is, but I also kinda wonder if it might be better to build it as a mystery.
