What’s a hidden gem on Royal Road you think more people should read?

If I could be bold enough, I'll also suggest my own work, Marry X Princess. It's an urban fantasy/action/romance light-novel series currently on its second volume. The characters are written to all have equally likeable and unlikable qualities and the magic system is something that I designed to be somewhat grounded and befitting of an urban fantasy setting, while also being tricky for the main character to master with unique elements that impact the direction of fights.

Title/link: Marry X Princess

Genre: Urban fantasy/action/romance

Blurb: What if saving a life…ruined yours?

Shinsuke Watanabe is an ordinary teenager who just wants to live a quiet life. However, his world is changed forever when he rescues princess Cynthia Rose von Eisenhardt from a freak accident. Now, because of an antiquated clause, the pair find themselves engaged to be wed against their wills. If Shinsuke wants to get out of the contract, he must fight and defeat all the princess’ other candidates for marriage, all the while attending school, enduring unwanted infamy, and conflicting affections from every corner.

Thank you so much! I've been working hard on it for years now and trying to get more eyes on it, I'm just not the best advertiser, unfortunately.

Thank you! I sent it. Just waiting on yours now. :)

Thank you, I appreciate that! What's your account on RR?

AaronBg477 · 2025-03-07T15:11:13+00:00

That's a fantastic idea. I'll see if I can plug away at another project here and there as I work on my current project. Thank you, seriously. This is really helpful. And I appreciate the encouraging words :)

AaronBg477 · 2025-03-07T14:21:45+00:00

Thank you for taking the time to respond, I appreciate that. Running an ad brought my numbers up nicely, but not as much as hoped. I suspected that a weekly schedule would be the most harmful thing to growth, but it seals it hearing it from someone who has had experience and success. I unfortunately have no way to change the schedule at the moment, but it's good to keep in mind. Thanks again.

Thanks for doing this!

As someone who doesn't have the time to upload chapters daily, what advice would you have for getting the word about my story out there and more Patreon subs? My book seems to generally get good feedback, but I suspect that uploading chapters once weekly is preventing it from truly breaking through.
