Interesting idea but I would rather have an app version of the site over this given the choice of which comes sooner. RR has this feature and I can't say I've ever felt the need to use it over scrolling the mouse wheel one millimetre further.

The actual site seems pretty well designed. Royal road likely has 3-4 times the traffic that scribblehub has, Webnovel likely has 3-4 times the traffic that Royal road has so in terms of the audience it is well worth getting in to.

“Give me your horny, your frisky, your huddled authors yearning to lewd, the wretched refuse of your teeming sites. Send these, the homeless, tempest-tossed to me, I lift my lamp beside the waifu door!"

Hmm ReadWolf kinda changes the appeal : >

Tony has a special secret sub-algorithm to the trending algorithm that uses facial recognition to detect loli covers and auto frontpage them

Longer chapters for the more important character shorter for less important is a way I've seen it done that I quite liked. Also something to keep in mind is likeability is a stumbling block with multi-character stories, the reader can be be very unhappy if they are forced to read about a...

Mix for sure, too much of either is exhausting

That legitimately sounds hilarious. "It’s bullshit, I did not kill her. I did nooot. Oh hi, Xian Li!

I've had a lot nicer time on Scribblehub than I have had on royal road, sucks to hear there are butts over here too. I think there's not much to be done but ignore them sadly, the author life is rough

Had some coffee and thought of some more: Sixteen ways to defend a walled city by Tom Holt (I would be curious if anyone here has heard of this book, It's got one of the most unique styles of writing I've ever come across.) Kings of the Wyld (dope mix of medieval fantasy and rock and roll band...

I've seen reincarnated as a fork and reincarnated as a stone but not clothing. The kill la kill anime is the only thing I can think of that comes close, although it's not reincarnation but simply sapient clothing. If you haven't seen that then it's worth checking out.

Because people who want a shonen animes vibe in their work replicate terrible anime tropes to achieve that. It's for the same reason the stupid back of head scratching and pushing flashing glasses up nose with middle finger tropes get used. If they don't like it they won't include it. If they...

I think people who grew up as an only child are a lot more enthralled with the idea of wincest than people who had siblings.

There's a few that stick with me but this would be number one. It's very unsettling. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uzumaki If you want an idea of what it's like there is this short manga by the same mangaka which has similar vibes:

I don't understand that stuff to the point that it's killed any desire I have to get into it. I've seen a few episodes here and there of these series and I've read descriptions of how it's all supposed to make sense, but it really is just a hot mess. They for sure made a mistake making it in...

Who cares what others think, write from the heart, write what you like not what others like.

+1 on hard to read. Quotation marks would fit better imo, or UK single quotation marks 'like this' I've seen that used as a replacement for italic emphasis before.

Obligatory link to Brandon Sanderson's excellent writing lecture on magic systems:

: > ...Interesting I think if my story ever gets into a trending tab on some writing site it's going to get a lot of divisive opinion from the general public even though that wasn't really my intent. Not sure how I'm gonna deal with that currently ? I guess this is something BL and similar...

Hayfever, meaning I have to keep my windows shut in summer and I have no AC TT_TT
