“Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde” is a rather famous work, it's not surprising she knows about it even if it's not what she would read.

Of the stories I was reading that stopped uploading, more than 1 in 10 reached chapter 40. Several got over 60, and some got into the three digits. One of those got taken down for rewrite... in 2021, and there has not been an update since. One is technically still getting updated... at a rate of...

If you found it in search or front page, that means the story has not been shadowbanned yet. Report it with the NU link as proof, it might be enough to get it hidden. Check the name of the SH "author" if it matches the books' author on NU to be sure, though.

But is the problem that the story is written by AI, or that the AI writes like grammatically correct, flowery shit? If it's the latter, you would not enjoy the story regardless of you recognizing the AI writing, it might just take you longer to drop it.

Stupid question, but did you double-check you are actually watching the thread with email notifcations?

Their meaning is similar, but I would say Gehenna rolls off the tongue easier than Perdition's Rest, so I would go with the former for that reason alone. Especially since it's the name of a hotel.

I guess someone really hates translations. And to be fair, if all the works are translations, they should not ever appear in searches, much less the front page, because translations are not allowed on SH. They are only tolerated as hidden, to be linked from other sites, and because there is no...

Technically such function is already there. You can upload volumes as separate books, and link them as sequel/prequel. Adding it as the function you describe is, from my perspective as a reader, simply not worth it.

Sexuality is just one of many character traits. I would say good writing is not about what traits your characters have, but how you use them. If all you can say about your character is that they are gay, most people won't like that character, though in the right setting it can still work. If...

To my great disappointment, the orange ones do not taste like oranges.

Depends on the story and nature of the scene, but in general, I would say they are not needed. An exception can be explicit scenes that are significantly different from the rest of the story, e.g. a straight scene in an otherwise yuri story, or an entire optional chapter dedicated to explicit...

This. I know I would not pick up your story for that simple reason, I would see the AI synopsis and move away.

At a glance, it looks like it could be an original novel, possibly by a Chinese, or other non-native English speaking author.

Once I replied to an author asking for feedback in comments. I got a reply not even from the author, but the author's girlfriend (who is also an author, but not of that story), who then also blocked me.

Every author wants feedback. Most can't handle even constructive criticism, however, and when they are asking for feedback, they really mean empty flattery.

In my opinion it's a fair pricing. Neither too cheap, nor too expensive compared to other authors I have seen. I have seen authors make decent profit off of Patreon with just advance chapters. It depends how popular your works turn out to be, and how wide an audience you can reach. Personally...

1.5-2.5k is the general consensus for optimal length of a webnovel chapter on this site. Anything under 1k sacrifices too much quality for quantity and might have higher initial traffic, but lower reader retention, while if you go above this range, you start losing readers who do not have time...

This animal would not fit your example conditions, but when mentioning unusual animals, one cannot simply ignore the duck-billed, beaver-tailed, egg-laying, milk-sweating mammal that is a platypus. Oh, did I mention it has electroreceptors in the bill?

You will change your mind, if you ever get smacked by 7kg of steel tube.
