Well I almost finished part 2 of my 3 part fantasy series (with room for expansion)
I wrote about 70% of it.
>missing introduction to one of the main cast
>missing a chapter that highlights the bard
>missing character development for the main character to showcase his good nature and leadership
>missing at least one fighting arc to further showcase their skills
>missing the entire build up to the final fight
and theres several holes in general.
I only have an easy time writing one of the characters, my favourite of course, a traumatised wizard who's entire family was killed because she decides to fuck with the wrong people.
but this book is supposed to be written with the audience in mind and I know the other characters are far more conventionally appealing.

I did some SoL moments which I seem to be able to write well, and 3 of the 5 fights are well written. the other 2 are kind of short.
I was thinking about what that anon said a few threads ago "you cant always write golden moments" and I suppose thats true. For a book this long it would be unreasonable to expect myself to be at my peak the entire time.
But part one is almost non stop great in my eyes, however, its way shorter. Its about half of this book.
Also both of the most developed and interesting villains are little girls. I like that trope, but I think I should add a monster or male, more traditional villains.

Anyway writing it is the easy part. Marketing is what defines success and Ive got no experience with that
