Well... the problem is more like you won't attract that many readers till quite a few chapters are up anyway. I don't think a slow start is a downer, but a BORING start is. For example, you could start saying this is an underdog story and that the MC will take time to get his strength. But you...

Well... most dark fantasy readers are guys. So its more like to find a male point of view in that particular section. Other sections are more male then female also, like LIT RPG novels, and Isekai novels. But its also true that most book buyers and readers females outnumber the males quite a...

I'd found if you are describing very good descriptions of the scene, the people and what's around them, you can easily surpass 1,000 words before you even get anything done. :S Well, just keep trying.

You know a few years ago I remember they used to have video games where the characters would age, get married, and have kids. And when it first came out people were really excited because it was something new that had never been done. But then they realized when playing that their characters...

If it helps you feel any better the news suggests most people are insane now. Although ... if you can still walk and chew game and think at the same time you are doing pretty good!

LOL. Yeah that had some really VIVID scenes! Thanks. Yeah that's interesting. In theory if they use less energy, who knows how long they'd stick around for. They might be there for decades maybe...

:O That one Korean movie that was ... the train zombie plot was REALLY SCARY!

I've found you have to experiment a bit to get something good.

So feel free to speak up and chip in. I was thinking, you know it would be fun to talk about how zombie physics work. OK so here was what I was thinking; If zombies are more primal and beast like in their rage and aggression this means their senses are sped up and heightened (for some world's...

If you get really fancy with the AI sometimes you can get them to put up a pic with like siamese twins joined limbs and stuff like that. Thumbs up. But... probably readers won't be attracted to siamese twins style art. ;)

That makes sense. Its hard to invest emotionally in a story if you think its too short.

That's an interesting point to. Like would they still try to drink it after coming back to human, from the addiction side? I kind of don't like vampires that much. But maybe people are fascinated really with the idea of not getting old. Character doesn't have to be immortal, but sounding long...

Thank you. And thanks to you also. OK, I forgot to follow up on this... You know how youtube videos people are always claiming some people aren't seeing their videos, or that subscribers sometimes get dropped or... mess result? Does that ever happen here too?

So, I wanted to ask readers... if its a harem story and if someone gives your 'waifu' a cure for her vampirism, what would you do? Do you tell her to take it, and then have to watch her age like a poor human? Or keep her immortal but having to drink blood? And... what kind of side effects do...

Question re: reader notifications? So when you post a chapter, do all your readers get a notification? Or how does that work exactly? I feel like I've forgotten how this works, partly because I had to take a break for a few months from writing last year. And if they do get notified, do they...

I just want to know what readers like and are like better so I can give them good stories. To make a good story you have to have good research. Its also really satisfying when readers send you a note about a story and what they liked, and you feel like, Oh all that hard work paid off. :)

Do readers generally read warnings for both the story or for chapter heading warnings? From the perspective of being the writer it looks to me like some people either skip the warnings or become fascinated by them instead of avoiding them? I was curious to study the psychology of this and see...

You know I was very surprised to see that this thread, had no one say anything about netory stories. In the past I'd heard readers say they really don't like when they read a story and the main character's girls get taken by some other douche. This kind of story bothers people a lot. (Although...

Wow. After hearing about the headaches, I have to agree with you that its not worth the trouble. :O

You are all pretty funny. Thanks.
