Xavier, I just finished the first chapter of THE GLACIER MEN and I loved it. You absolutely made the right move having Lee as your main character in this chapter. It's very easy for a reader to understand, and associate with, the reactions of a youngster (since we've all been there), and Lee is an extremely likable character. I started out reading as a sort of responsibility to another substack member, but I got completely swept away. Thank you so much. I'll be back for more.

Oh wow! What a start!

This was SO exciting! I really like that little Lee is so young as he is able to see things with a childlike tint that gives the narrative a really lovely register.

I shall definitely be reading on to see what happens in Greenland!

Excellent start. I look forward to reading the rest (so far) By coincidence my story also begins on a crashing plane. Good job.

Thanks for the feedback, glad you like it! I know you started with #20, so I'm really curious to see how that informs your experience of the story.
