    Mixed feelings about a message i recieved.

    I'm sorry but if I see 'Natalie' I instantly think 'scam'. Probably a few other names too, if I can go dig them up from my FFN profile (I have like couple hundreds of accounts blocked there :v).

    Got my first 'rage' comment. Yay!

    Me caveman cannot read apparently :blob_pat_sad: . I'm also sorry for the mix up.

    How many chapters before you read?

    If the genres interest me, but the setting don't particularly hook me - 200 chapters. If the setting is good too, then around 50.

    Got my first 'rage' comment. Yay!

    I think my top one has to be this one "重回1982小渔村". Maybe some English readers know it too, I'm not sure, since this story kinda dominated qidian's top list for a while. Nothing fancy, just a guy died and went back in time, into his younger body, real world, no superpower (unless his extreme luck...

    What's the ScribbleHub Meta in 2026?

    From a popularity pov, I think Isekai is an asset rather than liability. Just putting it in the genre together with smut and a decent cover is already guaranteed clicks. It then becomes a matter of what to do with that isekai. I write Isekai smut with a mostly normal protagonist (his 'cheat' is...

    Trending Troubles

    Made second place once and never again :ROFLMAO:. My numbers grow consistently, but there has never been any big boost (except for the day on the trending), so no idea what got me there in the first place.

    What is a shoutout swap?

    The more people you swap with, the more reach your story has. Literally no down side. Also it can be an investment. If your story somehow blows up, then they'll benefit too.

    Scammer Board of Shame

    I've been on FFN for too long. When I see the name 'Evelyn', I instantly think they're a scammer. :sweating_profusely: Still haven't got any here though, lucky me.

    Is hinting at SA done to child too much?

    yeah that's the intended effect of that memory. The world in that story is quite fucked up.

    Is hinting at SA done to child too much?

    I might be dim, but 'his thighs still hurt' didn't connect me to SA. I would have thought that he was beaten or something if it wasn't for the title. But yes, I think it can be done in a more tasteful way than physical effect of the fact. Like in Tsukihime, a SA girl was described (in a memory)...

    Seeking Hardboiled Critique: Does the atmosphere hit hard enough?

    By this definition, OP's first chapter isn't even 'softboiled'. Read like the start of a slice of life smut comedy piece.

    Opinion on horror( or eeriness ) in my work.

    A nice piece of action with a little thriller, but not scary. Though this might just be me. Imo the 'horror' comes from the unknown and unseen. A 'horror' that you could see and converse with normally and disposed of easily isn't a horror. I'd be scared if I was Aegis in that situation, but...

    Free Developmental Feedback on Chapter One From a Seasoned Editor

    I didn't say there isn't any editor here though :blob_hmm: . I said that no editor would write a forum post full of spelling errors like OP did.

    Free Developmental Feedback on Chapter One From a Seasoned Editor

    Read your only other post on this forum. I don't think any 'seasoned editor', or just normal editor, would write like that. Sorry if I'm wrong but it just doesn't instill any confidence.

    Silent acceptance or vocal criticism--Which is better?

    I go case by case, based on whether I feel their comment is valid or not. I have a reader that can't seem to agree with many things my protagonist was doing (still, they stuck with the story despite the disagreement, so I'm grateful). Even so, I only changed the story when I feel like he had a...

    Frequently Asked Questions

    It's related to that, so I can post my schedule on my blurb, but I didn't think of an universal 'best time'. I was just trying to find a good time for myself.
