Tbh that is a good thing. I get bored if a story is only about romance/action adventure etc. I like kitsch (as long as the story does not head away in a tangential storyline) in my stories. Most popular novels always have multiple genres.

I've written a few short stories (for contests, based on the Mahabharatha - Indian epic etc.) Do people usually read stuff like that here? I haven't seen any short stories on this site (or is it just me not looking hard enough?).

Sci-fi for me as well. I do well with contemporary (humor, drama, romance) but really struggle to fit things in a sci-fi setting. Maybe I ought to challenge myself to writing something with sci-fi.

TTTT by Mike Truk. Awesome series.

Here you go - https://www.scribblehub.com/series/2096682/their-wonder-years-fall-/ The story is about found family, friendships and finding love set on a college campus in 1998.

Alright! 8 chapters up and more to come every 4 hours. I love the schedule feature. This site really has some awesome tools for publishing. I guess that's why people publish every few seconds. LOL. It's brutal in the latest updates list!

Congratulations. It's always a great feeling to finish. Wish you the best on your future arcs.

I've seen a few authors that format the text like an actual conversation with different colors for different participants. That works as well. IMO, if the conversation is longer than a couple of sentences it makes sense to do it in the first format. That said, unless the conversation is...

I learned that writing smaller chunks of my large story helps. The engagement has definitely been longer now. Aiming to keep in the Latest Updates list on the homepage until a critical mass is reached.

I started writing one story. Then to keep my name alive on the front page (not on this site), I started one more. The funny thing is my second story became more popular than the first one. I slowed down on my first story. Writing multiple stories is fun. However, it does take away from your...

New chapter posted (Chapter 5)

Thanks! Yea. It's interesting to learn how each platform is different. I like the way you've embedded your stories in the signature. I have shamelessly borrowed it :s_tongue:

Thanks. I broke my first chapter up into 4 parts :) It's a lot harder to do this than I thought! Oh well. I wondered how some of the writers here had 1k+ chapters. I guess I may reach that point as well at some time!

Thanks. I think I'll do just that. Seeing the top stories and trending stories - I see the same format over and over. I'll just have to redo the chapters :mad_s:

I do too. Problem is exactly what you mentioned earlier though. That you'll come back to it instead of getting started with the story. I think I'll probably break down the existing content into more consumable chapters. I want people to read asap - not earmark it for later.

Thanks for the reply! Should I break down the stories into smaller parts? Are such big chapters a no-no here? I write on storiesonline. I had started one story on Scribblehub way back but gave up because I rarely saw anyone engage. I was told that people don't read until you finish a...

Chapters 2 and 3 are up.

New chapter released... Some mornings change you. Others just remind you how much is already changing. https://www.scribblehub.com/series/1566049/yantra-protocol/ Bharath wakes up different — not just because of a dream, but because the dream is starting to bleed into everything else. The day...
