    Nothing I write ever satisfies me anymore...

    It is the difference between your taste and your experience. Most authors go through this in the beginning. And other artists too. It just means that you have an eye for quality that you currently lack the experience to recreate yourself. The way you can go at it is mostly to keep writing...

    Anybody got art of their characters?

    Do you have filters?

    Anybody got art of their characters?

    There are confirmed patterns obviously, like the fact you aren't getting on trending once you have 2k+ readers.:blob_catflip:

    Anybody got art of their characters?

    I got one character fully done so far. Two more are still in the process of getting a coloured picture.

    Word Count

    Honestly, I would stay on the side of reason and say that at these numbers the actual number is irrelevant. The question becomes if you can maintain the level of quality or even increase it by lowering the word count down. If you think that you are still at the maximum of your quality at such...

    How do you guys get so many favorites (those heart thingys idk)?

    I think there is also some value in how large your story is, unfortunately as it might sound. Up until my story hit 50k words and 20 or so chapters I also had much fewer favourites than afterwards (and readers too). probably some sort of psychological commitment - if the story is too small yet...

    Question about gunpowder weapon's in mediaval setting.

    Gunpowder is an easy part of guns. The question is do they have proper tooling to carve out something more intricate than a cannon and steel strong enough to last more than a few shots? Gunpowder had been known for centuries before it was used in guns and not because people didn't understand...

    Vampires vilification and other nonsensical portrayals.

    Vampire prototypes had originated as early as Mesopotamia and most likely had tales even earlier than that, Christianity just appropriated the myth as it had done with many others. Originally they were monster myths. not because of some trope. The notion of 'friendly' sparkly vampires is much...

    Just curious about smut-harem writers

    Personal experience and imagination Depends on how well the chapter is written, but usually, my own stories don't arouse me since I am too much into editor mode when I read them Hobby in writing yes, hobby specifically for a harem? not really just as they dont know I write fantasy or isekai. I...

    You’re Fired

    It can mean whatever they want. What really matters is what is written in the contract you are signing.

    Damn you! To be able to finish your own story! totally jealous here.

    Authors who chose a name with a particular meaning for their MC/s, what is it and why?

    MC has a short barking name suitable to be yelled out by a master with ease - due to his background. The rest of the cast has names either associated with their character, some historical significance or both. Higher the status - fancier the name

    Does Time Matters?

    Most of my early readers came from tag searches, specifically from "recently updated" Sort by whatever tag they were most interested in. A story usually lasts a whole day on the 1st page after posting (some tags las longer but they are also searched less) Your time at recently updated lasts...

    I like my genre but you don’t

    We will see what the future brings, but yeah shadowban is a garanteed expectation heh.

    I like my genre but you don’t

    Most likely because I had no idea what I was doing in the beginning since I have never written a novel before. And especially set the task for myself to learn how to write sex scenes properly. I will edit my early chapters however, I am aware of how much polish I would probably need and would...

    I like my genre but you don’t

    I wouldn't say stuck per se, especially since I do post on similar sites already. And selling is likely to be possible I think, not sure about success but that's a different story. Then you probably missed hints of Irje's power as early as chapter 4. Granted many did too - these were designed...

    I like my genre but you don’t

    There is always something else to strive for in my opinion. My concerns are probably the same as yours just a step above. Yes, I am blessed by views and lots of comments. But every time I think where I can expand further the only option I see is probably Amazon. Because my story is too explicit...

    Teach me some good curse words for a Goddess (18+)

    Honestly, I would drop any mentions of "goddess" from curses, period. That already acknowledges her status. If you wish to lower someone with words alone you actually have to lower them, both is status and qualities they consider most important. Or highlight the qualities he considers the most...

    Writing How to NOT break the reader's immersion in the story

    I would say the major factor for immersion is consistency. As readers read your chapters they start to form ideas of your characters and the plot flow. i.e they immerse themselves into the story. And they will stay that way as long as your story and characters will remain consistent. It is fine...

    Can Someone explain what these following are?

    Yes, it does. becomes negligible with more readers, however. update schedule normalises after 4 weeks (or 30 days, I am not sure exact interval) in the beginning it counts weeks before you started writing as 0 so the update number is lower. This is actually a blessing in disguise - your trending...
