When publishing a new series...
I'd suggest even more chapters, maybe around 10 or 15. I tend to avoid novels with very few chapters as there's not much to read anyways and if the author continues it'll pop up again later, which is convenient for me of course, but means there's not much latest series exposure to capitalize on...- Zirrboy

A good title for an infamous killer
Infamy is a detriment for a serious criminal. If they were voluntarily furthering their own to send some form of message, it would make no sense for the names to be as generic. So either the character is chuuni or the story is.- Zirrboy

What a reader explicitly criticizes doesn't have to be helpful at all, but there's no smoke without fire and the decision of whether that fire is of any importance to you should come from looking at the fire, not the smoke. If there's something to it, they're not going to stay the only reader...- Zirrboy

Reader side: But didn't you also mention that things are salvageable if mistakes are caught early? Waiting until the writing gives irrefutable proof that what irked you is an error is handy if you don't want to be wrong, but at that point it'll be much harder for the author to fix. Of course...- Zirrboy

Whether a disparity in a scene ends up as "damn I can't wait to find out what's going on" or "shitty plot holes" depends on how it's written, and both is possible without explaining anything or being extremely elaborate respectively. What you describe sounds more like willingness to put up with...- Zirrboy

Might just be a pet peeve of mine, but I've come across too many authors mocking critics because the thing they're pointing out is supposedly intentional. Whether this should be a mystery or just setup for a future development, if your readers take it as a plot hole instead, you're doing...- Zirrboy

Recommendations Powerful MC with Calculative Mind and Large Harem
The same goes for getting stronger, like with the ending of Warlock. You're just moving up the ladder in terms of who you're powerful or rich enough to interest in acting against you, usually narrowing down the pool of possible alternative victims. The way I see it, the safest way would be to...- Zirrboy
