I don't think scribblehub reviews are very common and readers don't really use them much compared to say, royalroad or amazon. I think everyone here just expects things to be bad. :sweat_smile:

Amazon keeps the money the scammers made for themselves.

There's certainly a pressure to maintain a 'schedule' that patrons are expecting. It can be very draining to know you need to produce on time to a clock, at least for me. There's been times where I've forced myself to push material just because I was behind schedule, and the story and myself...

From experience: A lot of people who leave 'feedback' are just in a bad mental state and want to lash out and hurt you. Since you can't really do anything to defend yourself, we webserial authors are an easy target. Engaging them just allows them to create a flame war and turn on their troll...

For webserialization, it feels like chapter art is a no-brainer now. Takes about 30-60 minutes to generate something relevant for me. I just finished up re-writing Newly Summoned Demoness and got a nice collage of the story:

Prologues are often the first thing a writer writes. Writers get better with practice. It stands to reason that prologues are often some of the worst writing of a story, before the writer gets into their voice or groove. Webserialization and ameatur stories often have no editing, and authors are...

No visibility/discoverability on wattpad. You will struggle to find any views at all unless you are in their primary genre of romance or werewolf stuff, unless you bring your own already established audience strong enough to prop you up to the very top of their lists. At least that was my...

If you're referring to Zendaya of the Dawn, that's not true. The art of the individual frames was not copyright-able since they were unedited and just prompted and done by MidJourney, was the USCO determination. If the author had put in human effort and edited them enough to become derivative...

You're focusing on the 200 dollars. But what happens when your story is making six figures after you posted it on amazon in breach of contract, and they have the rights to *all of that* plus the fact that you're on the hook for *their* court costs and you live in a country like the USA where...

Some people might not realize this, but its possible for a contract like this to take ownership of everything you write. Not just the one work that you sign to them, but sequels and completely unrelated works you might write in the future, too. Forever. A detailed analysis and reading of the...

I realize that it seems great to get a contract, but this is really a big no. The contract is legally binding and you are giving all your IP rights to them forever. The person contacting you is an author acquisition agent, who receives a bounty for every author they scam into accepting. New...

The amount of energy you have to put into a single story is limited. Think of it like a tank of gas. When you write, you're using up your fuel. You can only store up so much fuel at one time, and you can only replenish a certain amount of it every day. Guess what? Dealing with everything else in...

Does take a while to show up... like... 120 chapters-ish :sweat_smile:

definitely smut hub

The biggest possible issue I see is: MC decides to commit suicide > Is rewarded This could come off as glorifying suicide if done improperly (even if it is framed in that it didn't really happen and was just a dream), which is a big no. I'd consider dropping the suicide bit, as I don't think...

Really it depends on what your goals are, and how much online you are, how much you like to use discord...where you are at in your writing journey and how many readers you have already. As a pretty heavy discord user for a very long time, I find my story discord invaluable. It's extremely good...

From your previous post it seemed like you were unaware of soft-sci as a genre.

Hard Sci-Fi: Scientific Accuracy: Hard sci-fi places a strong emphasis on scientific accuracy, logic, and detail. The technologies and phenomena presented are either based on current scientific understanding or are plausible extrapolations of it. Technical Details: These stories often delve...

Sci-fi ship sizes, hulls, mission types, ship specialization and purpose... all this allows so much creativity. I generally split between hull types and vessel purpose. Typical Hull Sizes: Drone / Fighter (if they exist in your universe) Cutter (Shuttle) FAC (Fast Attack Craft) Corvette...
