Shout out in scribblehub

[InBetweenRealms]

The way authors constantly shout out other novels on RR still makes me wonder if there's some mutual back-scratching going on... Is it just me, or does this never happen on SH? Maybe I'm missing those stories.

I could never figure out what the point of the shout-outs on RR were because most of the time, it gets ignored.

You don't have to make cliques on SH to get to trending. Probably the main reason people don't really do review swaps or shout-out swaps.

Scribble Hub just isn't as talkative as Royal Road either to be fair. There are literally way more active people in the forums vs on Scribble Hub where most forums don't hit past 100.

Plenty of people yap on Royal Road and scratch each other's backs.

It's a nice thing to do... but meh

Shout outs do bring in readers though

I saw one author doing shoutouts to new stories on their favorite tag, but nothing like the weird cultlike behavior on RR.

I liked to put songs on some of my chapters, though.

We should shout-out others' works.
I'm heartily recommending @ThisAdamGuy 's "Skinwalkers".
It is brilliant horror and so well-done. I'm hooked from the first chapter and reading currently. ?

Skinwalkers

For as long as humanity has ruled the earth, skinwalkers have existed right beneath its nose. A race of shapeshifters, they live secretly in the lands untouched by civilization. Their only contact with the human world is to find other skinwalkers and awaken them to their true nature. Fey...

I suspect a majority of them on RR come from some mutual endorsement agreement.
