Question

Hi!
Just finished my first novel and almost done editing. They say while waiting for agents to contact you back, to work on a entirely new idea (not book 2 of a series) that way you might be ready for querying your new idea if everyone rejects your first one.
It would be loosely based on my life with many things changed or omitted because my story is just too sad and unbelievable (but happy now!)
📚We follow a 14-15 year old freshman that lives with her single father after her mother leaving them indirectly causes her father's schizophrenic break. He is unmedicated, as his religious delusions of grandeur lead him to believe he is not schizophrenic, but the reaper of souls and the knight of the apocalypse. He is servant-warrior of God, sent to rid the world of evil, so long as he's home to in time to cook dinner.
In order to cope with this our protagonist plays out fantasies and we follow along as she tries to make friends, get straight A's, and get rid of the evil witch infestation plaguing the world. We follow as she gathers up the courage to confront her father and demand that he get the treatment he needs.
(About a quarter to half of the book will be the fantastical adventures in her mind and the stark contrast with reality when she is spoken out of her daydreams. And the big bad in her inside world with parallel with her fathers treatment in the outside world. It will be a sparky sarcastic writing style much akin to Percy Jackson, although different since obviously its my writing and I'm not copying Rick Riordan)📚
What do you think?
I dont want to tell it too close to my own story because my dad was abusive, although that wasn't because of his schizophrenia, he was abusive long before that surfaced. He's gotten better so I kind of want to write as he is now, a bit zany with some days better than others. Schizophrenia doesn't make people dangerous and I don't want to make a mentally ill person the villain. I want to write a positive, but realistic, depiction of loving a schizophrenic parent. TBH I have him and my abusive mom to thank for being a writer, as my extensive reading was thanks to escapism.

Answer

It might get a bit confusing between his delusions and her daydreaming; difficult to follow what is real, who sees reality and when, but I guess this will depend on how you write it. It could work. 
I would probably not read it because it hits too close to home. My first boyfriend had a schizophrenic break 2 years into our relationship, I was in love, in my late teens and it traumatized me, I watched him being taken away in an ambulance, he refused to take his meds once out of the hospital and so forth, so it would probably pain me too much. It's a heavy subject but they say write what you know and maybe this is story worth telling and you 'll approach it better than someone who will just do some research on schizophrenia. Good luck sweetheart 💓 with this and with your submitted book. 
Wishing you lots of success in your future. 
P.S. Sorry for the long comment! This got me in the feels.

Oh wow! I like the synopsis. It reminds me of King of California or Infinitely Polar Bear. I have a tiny bit of insight on the publishing industry since querying my first book and I got to tell you, it’s a crazy ride. From what I learned, the query letter is your chance to shine and get your foot in so I would research all you can about that. Maybe even buy a query letter session with an available agent. Then, get a list of agents who are looking for your genre. Manuscriptwishlist.com is a good one to check out or twitter- agents love twitter. I would definitely suggest attending a writers conference in your area and meet an agent face to face, sometimes an agent will agree to read your work just bc you’re there. Anywho, way to go! And good luck!
