3965 177 0 3 15 days272 USDGood morning.
I am a professional writer. Nine of my novels have been published by AST and Lenizdat. I completed creative writing courses at Saint Petersburg University. Extensive experience in writing and editing custom books.
Regarding the submitted chapter:
1. As the then editor-in-chief of Lenizdat Sidorovich told me: "Young man, never, hear me, never start a book with the hero waking up - that's cliché."
2. The style itself is good, the text flows almost smoothly, but there are some hiccups.
3. There are inaccuracies in the description of details. But are details everything or not? ) For example: "One day I let him out through the double doors, tying a rubber band between the handles so the cat wouldn't slip back." I believe, not "for," but "between" the double doors. And how can you push the cat so it doesn't hiss without waking up? ))
My version of the beginning of the book:
Again! Again this disgusting feeling, as if someone is pounding fists on my chest from inside, begging to let out. Yeah, to let out... along with my life. The rhythm is jagged. Sometimes a horse galloping from the slaughterers, sometimes this very horse has been turned into a sausage product. And it's been like this for several months. I hold my breath, as if afraid my heart will still jump out. Carefully exhaling and immediately freezing, listening to the captive - whether it will start raging again or calm down for a while.
"What's happening to me?" — a banal but relevant thought.
… Recently, I had a full medical check-up. The ECG is normal. Tests too. The doctor casually said that my heart is fine. If so, then what is the reason? Where is that root I so stubbornly can't find?
A quick glance at the clock - 05:20.
"And why can't you sleep? As if it's the last day... But I won't die, right???" — a panicked thought had already risen, but my will immediately tamed it.
"I need to wash up. And coffee," — I ordered myself. — "Yes, it might only worsen my condition, but at least it will lift my mood a little. I'll die happy," — I joked to myself and calmed down a bit - you usually don't joke before death.

3624 135 0 15 days144 USDKyrylo, hello! Thank you for the first chapter you submitted.
Without the feeling that you want to take the text into your own hands – the editor cannot do anything.
The style resonates. Short, almost fragmentary sentences, interspersed with longer ones. Self-demanding. Irony. Willingness to delve into one's depths – for the sake of answers. Respect for the dash.
If this is a debut and specifically in short prose – a cool choice and maturity.
Trying to guess your age. My surname is constantly repeated in the chapter. Apparently, throughout the entire book. Interpreted as a symbol of searching.
I wish you to choose your editor. The rhythm of the heart will tell.
