High Views, but Low Engagement? Seeking Advice from Fellow Authors

+ your announcements are too much mate. A few chapters in are you're already giving huge thank yous. 20% of your entire chapters are just announcements. Should've probably put them in the authors notes.

This makes me wonder, who tf reads these?

+2, I tortured myself to read more. It was a disaster, this is definitely AI.

But that makes me curious. I heard that AI has like, I don't know, child protection shit going on, so it can't actually produce smut (it sounds like that's what it is). Or did I misunderstand that child protrection thing? How would he do that?
I really dislike any hype about AI - be it positive or negative. It's okay for things like grammar checking, because we've used aRTiFIiCiAL INtelLiGenCe for like 3 decades in fucking MS Word to grammar correct. I hate people who say "It wiLl TOtAlLY CHAngE ALl YouR WoRdS" because if I have eyes and a single brain cell, I will notice. Unless I WANT it to change shit, it sure as hell won't. Obviously, you shouldn't use it to translate proper text, if you don't got a clue about the language you're translating into, but that's a given. Either way, used for anything other than that, it just maks you lazy.
For example, when I first started writing properly in English, not just used it in YT comment sections (not just there, but you get the gist), I had to "re-learn" grammar. So I used DeepL, way back when you could still put at least SOMETHING into the window without paying for it. That's how I learned. I compared the changes it did and learned how to properly do it myself. It may not be perfect - but who's perfect anyway, right?
What I mean to say is: It's nice to have grammar correction, or the choice of phrasing complex questions and getting answers, but you should then still ask for the sources and read those, unless the info isn't THAT important and doesn't have to be a hundred percent accurate.
In the end, I just don't like how it makes people lazy. I don't hate the options and possibilities it gives. In the end, it's just a tool and it depends on the person using it.

18cm is very unrealistic.

How the fuck is 7 inches unrealistic? I'm assuming you're talking about Johnsons, and brutha, they can be that size

You can download local ones, if you have a powerful enough computer, and remove restrictions. My buddy has one he's using to play Hoi 4 with.

As I mentioned before, I am not fluent in English. That is why I translate my Korean manuscripts using various translation tools. Of course, I also utilize the translation functions of AI. I go through a process of selecting and combining the sentences I find most appropriate from those tools, and then back-translating them into Korean to finalize the work. In essence, I am putting in three times more effort than a typical English-speaking writer.

Throughout history, humans have always developed the tools they need. We have evolved by using those tools effectively and advancing them further. For me, AI is simply one of those tools. Using AI or a translation tool does not make me a robot.

Here’s some actual advice: select “smut” as your genre and watch the numbers go brrr.

Jesus Christ, this makes me want to reach for a rape whistle.

I bought a rape whistle.
Took it to the bowling alley on league night.
I blew on the damn thing all night.
Rape whistles don't work, I want my money back.
Didn't get raped one damn time.
