Dear Tapas Reader,

Thank you for taking the time out of your day to read The Monster Within. Before you begin, I'd like to inform you on a few things regarding this book.

Number One

The Monster Within has not been professionally edited as of yet, so the draft you're about to read will most likely be a little (or a lot) different from the finished product. An update will be provided once the final product has been released.

Number Two

This story contains two different POVs, although there is one scene dedicated to another character. However, the MAJORITY of this book will be told from either Odion or Apollo's point of view. They always say there are two sides to every story so I'm doing the honor of giving you BOTH!

Each chapter will be outlined by whose POV you're in as not to confuse you: so if you see "CHAPTER ONE - ODION", this is obviously in Odion's POV, and the same will be for Apollo.

Number Three

Because The Monster Within is told from different POVs, and Tapas encourages you not to upload chapters over 15,000 characters long, most POV chapters will be broken up into parts. In my manuscript, Odion and Apollo's POV are told within a chapter, which equates to around 5,000-6,000 words per chapter (this exceeds way over 30,000+ characters on Tapas). So because of this, most POV chapters will be broken up into parts, and this way it makes it easier to read for those who are using mobile devices.

Number Four

This book is for a MATURE audience (18+), and contains strong language and scenes of graphic violence. Reader discretion is advised. 


With all that being said (written), I extend my deepest gratitude for you being here, and willing to be part of this epic journey. This is gonna be one HELLUVA RIDE, so strap yourselves in! =D

Much love and respects!
