Is that a program? Because if it is, I've never heard of it. I thought most industry professionals typically use Word. I know Brandon Sanderson uses Word. And I do to! wink*

I'm not really familiar enough with SH to worry too much about ratings here. I'm trying to get people to rate my story on RR, because I want to hit Rising Stars. It's a huge boost to growth and follower count if you can get on there, that's the reason. All right, got a lot of interesting...

...contact my readers on an individual basis to beg for ratings? Haha!

You've just convinced me to write a fantasy story about guilds, all about guilds and guild politics and the inner workings of guilds, lol. It'll be called... The Guild!

Lol, whaaaat?

Money or no, I'll always be a writer, though I might not write as much in the future if I have to do something else, lol. But the dream... Harry Potter failed miserably. And then suddenly it didn't. Luck is a thing. It happens.

How often do you do that? I've only ever hit 8k once. One day I did 8,500, but that was my record high. Right now I'm doing six thousand words daily.

Presumably from RR. I don't know about here, but I always felt that on RR the forums were where the writers spent time hanging out and talking rather than the readers.

Any tips of advertising? Yeah, I have 18 fictions on Royal Road. I know all about not chasing the readers, haha. There's always hoping! And I'm surprised with the amount of readers I have on here. I only have 27 followers on RR for Oni Rōkura.

Indeed, I am!

57 with 11 planning to read. But I have a really sweet cover, too. I noticed that, and I really like how it shows you that metric!

Thank you for the answer. What do you mean by "kinda" though? lol

My story has 56 readers, but I'm curious what that means. Is that number simply the amount of people who have clicked on it and read it, or are they actively following that story? When I go to my profile, it says I have 1 follower. So Readers/Followers. I assume followers are people who follow...

Good heavens... Thank you for this explanation!

I don't really understand what I'm seeing. Says I'm #40 in Youkai, but... out of what? thirty-nine other stories? lol I guess I understand Royal Road better because I've been on there for over two years. Over here, I have no idea how to gauge the community, the number of writers, etc. I don't...

I will argue that there's nothing wrong with head hopping, so long as you do it correctly. Oniscient is a natural head hopping POV.
