I'm walking into a conundrum where I've been spitting this story out for going on three years now, and in the process I've learned and grown considerably as a writer. I've gone back and rewritten my first 20 chapters give or take, and I'm proud of the result. The problem is that takes away...

This is the opening scene of chapter 1, so it has to be pristine. I thought maybe if I trim the fat... but am I losing anything valuable? Original: Revision:

Shoehorning [there's probably another word for this but IDGAS] is when the author insists on shoving some piece of plot element in where it doesn't belong because [at the time] it feels important. I have, traditionally, been quite guilty of this, especially when it comes to new ideas I want to...

Question in the title. And yes, this is a very important question.

I currently have 64 chapters totalling 280,000 words released over the past two years. Because I value quality over quantity, it's taken me three weeks to release my latest chapter. I was wondering: how established must a story be before the audience stops caring about release frequency...

I have a story 63 chapters in. If I wanted to post special content for a premium subcription, where's the best place to do that? I've tried Patreon but they disabled my account. I didn't have much up there, though

Current: An orphaned peasant lives a frivolous life chasing girls around the village until he’s called to war, where the harsh realities of survival draw out his true nature. After hope, tragedy, love, mystery, and betrayal, the monster in the mirror faces a chance to reshape an empire. Another...

Understanding that not everyone who reads my crap is going to like it, how much of a drop in viewership should I see between chapters 1 and 2? I currently see a 42.6% decrease. Is that a little, a lot, or what?

I kept seeing this term pop-up over and over, and so I googled it. Here's what it gave me: a character is suddenly transported to or reincarnated in another world, often a magical or video game-like one. The protagonist frequently gains new powers or forms and must adapt to survive and thrive...

Good morning, Can I please get some feedback on my landing page, https://www.scribblehub.com/series/967246/a-place-to-bloom/ The cover. The blurb, anything else that compels or detracts you from wanting to check out the story?

Ok so here's the situation. MC and his friend have arrived at the foreign city and walk around, seeing the sights. What they see [but can't process because of their patriarchal upbringing] is that women are in control. They get catcalled and everything, and they don't know how to feel about...

I did this whole chapter as a conversation between four characters getting to know each other. I've never done this before. Beneath it is something going on that won't be clear until much, much later (chapter 100ish). My hope is that the reader won't pick up on it until it's explained in the...

I'm looking at my stats, and I think maybe I'm seeing a sharp drop somewhere after the first few chapters but I'm trying to figure out where my audience is losing interest. Any insight would be helpful https://www.scribblehub.com/series/967246/a-place-to-bloom/

Under stats, I click on insights, and it shows me a heat map of where my story is read over the past week. How do I see the same map but for all time?
