Get burnt on RR once? Quite dismissive there. Check the link. Someone scraped every ad on RR currently and put them there. They ordered it by target link so all ads to stories on RR come first, then amazon, then the audiobook place. So if you scroll pretty much to the bottom, you can see them...

On RR, my story is top 10 on 4 different genre rising stars categories, is on 11 genre rising stars lists in total and has a solid chance of hitting the main RS. Checking SH, I've got 13 readers and 4 favorites with 490 views. That doesn't even come close to the numbers I'm pulling on RR...

I wrote a short story for a contest and made myself cry three times while writing it (it was about dealing with the loss of a beloved parent)

Villainess, noble girl, princess. Reincarnation is a fickle matter, unpredictable and capricious, uncaring and unforgiving in nature. [Insert something about before dying MC] Stranded in unknown lands, in a different time and age by the mysterious forces of magic, Aurora is reborn as the sole...

Oh, in that case, I can't recommend Villains Are Destined to Die enough.

sales pitch. ✅ 100~200 words. ❌ No world-specific terms. ✅ Call-to-action ❌ Red, ? Blue, ✅ Green ❌ Grade B sales pitch. ✅ You’ve only got 64 words, and you made them all count. I don’t even know what the story is about, and you have me interested. You know your audience and what keywords will...
