what genres do people read more on this website?

[emiangel]

heyy, new writer here. i see alot of fantasy on this site, and i wondered.. what genres do you all look for on the site? do only fantasy/action/romance get popular?
personally, i’m into psychological romance, or maybe just silly slice of life romance (mainly lesbian/gl) … if i wrote that sort of thing, will that gain any attention or are there any sites that are better for me?

sorry alot of questions .. thanks if you do answer :)

maybe just silly slice of life romance (mainly lesbian/gl)

This will definitely work. Lesbians are amazingly popular here, but I am by no means against that. I would say this is the, or close to, best site for lesbians. Not so much psychological romance, but there is still an audience.

Smut. Smut seems to be the most popular.

iirc didn't someone make a whole stat charts about this?

Not necessarily accurate though, it counts stories that don't actually appear.

Yea, but its a start for some simple stats on scribblhub.

Smut. Hardcore smut.

 

[Snake99]

adventure with ecchi

 

[Fox-Trot-9]

Fantasy/adventure with a touch (or a LOT) of ecchi.

I don't touch ecchi or smut... (generally)
I enjoy the genres you mentioned liking, so if you go down a smutty route I request skippable smut... or don't. I'm a single reader, so do what you'd like to write.

That is still a popular option, ignore smuthub and embrace lesbianism

My non-smut book is doing better than the smut one. I’d say the fantasy elements are popular, but I don’t think the smut is all that relevant.

Smut is not as popular as some make it seem. Action, fantasy, slice of life, GB, GL, BL, and isekai tend to be the most popular. Though all genre's do well here.

Except horror

 

[CarburetorThompson]

Fantasy, harem, gender bender, girl love, boy love, isekai, litrpg, smut

Fantasy. You can write any genre, but anything Fantasy does better than others.

Except horror

Horror doesn't do well on most reading sites. Thriller does well though, weirdly enough. I know they don't seem too different but they are like night and day when it comes to readership and stories.

Historical romances taking place during the Irish potato famine starring people with names like Sturly Stembleburgiss, Grampton St. Rumpterfrabble, and Irascible Coxwain Saunterblugget Hampterfuppinshire. Don't bother looking for any on here, though. They're so insanely, ridiculously popular that the authors always take them down in less than a week and upload them to Kindle Unlimited, where they sell them to their army of rabid fans for well over $5 million a year.
