Simply seeing if it needs tweaking and is of interest (drives you to know more) to those who read it: "The Awakened is an Action/Adventure novel about a god who, while plagued with amnesia, discovers that the world is on the verge of destruction, because he will destroy it… unless the devil “saves” humanity!"

Expand commentImportant question: is the story finished or in the writing? Or its logline just sampled for feedback? Well, I think there is something odd in the god discovering a world about to be destroyed/ he wants to destroy the world. The word "discovering" can go with amnesia, yes. But there is no way he can find out about a dying thing and at the same time wants to destroy it, there must be a reason and purpose for destruction. This doesn't suit the concept of amnesia. Instead, the god woke up and discovered a super corupted world and wanted to destroy it. The devil became the saviour as he was forced to understand the balance of good and evil. Again, you should call this comedy. Its incredibly hilarious for a god to have a memory loss.

Expand commentThank you for the responses. @Dan MaxXx, the story is not favorable for any religion, but your response provides insight. @Christian Pius, the story is written. It's in the editing stage, being prepped and tested before shopped for agents. And seeing as agents are brutal from the logline, I want to put this out and get opinions for insight into my project.
@Coreeta I love the spirit behind your words. I'll look into your Eric Grossman recommendation!
@all of you. Thank you

Might wanna try some like "A god with amnesia discovers that he is inadvertently causing the destruction of the world ... And the only one who can save it is Satan himself".

@ James Drago I knew one day, these thumbtacks would serve a great purpose. I was getting tired of stepping on them. Ow! Thank you also Stephen, Leonard and Christian. Stop me when I break out the toys and Legos.

Boards like that are the best! I always wondered why editing a photo was easier than a book or script (not really, but for the sake of this comment). The reason, however, is because you can see what's in front of you. Really helps to visualize!

That's awesome you are able to make those tools work for you. Not really something I like to do, but whatever works!
