The demon of reading comprehension attacks you. It's obvious that I'm going to publish a volume with chapters. It's just that it's numbered 8.5 because it's the continuation of what happened in volume 8.
You're wrong, the most popular novels stand out because of their fandom, not because of their cover. With the cover, you only know that the novel is popular.
As I said, the physical format is absurd on a continent where people no longer read; the web format is better.
That escalated fast. Just was interested and tried to be nice.
You mentioned you will release the entire volume on Wednesday. I just didn't think you would release the entire volume in one go, so yeah, I might have misunderstood you, but if that's really the case, then your readers will be pleasantly surprised. Most people (99.9% of WN authors) wouldn't do it. They would release chapter by chapter over a span of a few days.
I think the demon of reading comprehension is attacking you, not me. My argument was simply that if I saw a novel with your cover in a store, it could compare with the others LN's next to it. I think it looks quite professional; that was what I was trying to get across. It's really quite good.
I wasn't talking about what makes a novel stand out in general. Obviously, you figured that out on your own. *wink wink*
Of course, the web format is better, but you said, and I quote:
Volume 8.5 of World Ixion/Saga will be released on Wednesday.
which implies that you will release the entire volume on Wednesday. I don't know how many chapters that makes, but that's really unorthodox and strange because you usually stretch out the chapters and not release them in one go. Releasing the entire volume in one go is almost unheard of, which made me question if you maybe release it for Supporters or on another page like Amazon, and YES, authors do that. They release their works in books. Since you create a brand new cover for each volume, I think it wasn't unreasonable to assume you might release your works on Amazon or another site.
Also, a volume 8.5 does not indicate a continuation, but it usually implies a side story. Every single volume is a continuation. It's a little silly. It's not an arc, but simply a volume. A volume is simply a measurement of pages and not content. Most LN's/Mangas have the same size, so even if the arc is not yet finished, the volume only contains so many chapters.
Anyway, I just wanted to tell you that the cover is nice, that's all! Just a little support.
No need to argue any further, good luck with your release, hopefully your readers enjoy it.
