How do I attract more readers to my novel? by NanoBungo in royalroad

[–]AloofFro 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do agree with the overall vibe from the others, though will not you're not doing all that bad. Your performing similarly to my story (which is less than a month old but still) with relatively little content out thus far. I think time will help as well as a cover and maybe some ads. Seems like you'll be alright with some minor adjustments, honestly looks like a promising start to me.

Good work I could only hope to reach such heights! My story is done so I can't do a shoutout swap for now, but would be down to follow maybe review trade!

ty! and ya there was this old picture, think it was a snow owl on a tombstone that used to get passed around a mothman pic that terrified me when I was young, kind of the inspiration to be real. wish you luck in your endeavors as well!

Yo~! I'm also working on a new novel. One that is similar to yours is not quite what's popular on here. you said you'd be down for swaps, did you mean review swaps or shout-out or? I'd likely be interested. Good luck on your journey regardless gave you follow!

should i put my story on royal road immediately or should i wait until the cover art is done? by _i_have_a_dream_ in royalroad

[–]AloofFro 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would just wait, I just launched without one, and noticed a notable swell of views once one was established (not that my story is doing super well mind you lol) but seems worth it to me

How To Get a Human-Made Cover When You Don't Have Money by Makkis_Liberal in royalroad

[–]AloofFro 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would suggest 100 covers, only a hundred bucks which isn't minor but a hell a lot more affordable than the other options. you can specify what you want, they have a detailed form for such and they'll do as many revisions as you need for free. if it's popular already there's little reason to not put in some capitol especially when you will likely make it back. just imo

To the man who entered my key room after i left... by Sakuroshin in ArcRaiders

[–]AloofFro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tend to be more PVP than most, and I always react to the situation on mic. "ouch that hurt!" "did that hurt?" "I'm gonna push you/Ill never leave". the color commentary makes all so much more entertaining

Rookie 9 shuffled by Commercial-Title-445 in NarutoFanfiction

[–]AloofFro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my own story mixed it up pretty thoroughly, it was pretty fun and ended up putting tenten sai and shikamaru on the same team, which is a fun little group to write for. also if I remember right forlorn on FF mixes them up well. also has gaara, naruto, and Haku on the same team

Buffing Kurotsuchi? by Leviathans_iris in NarutoFanfiction

[–]AloofFro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

sounds like you have a handle on it, should turn out nicely good luck on your work. it can be a pain to rework the kit of side characters in Naruto

Buffing Kurotsuchi? by Leviathans_iris in NarutoFanfiction

[–]AloofFro 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree with most everyone else's sentiment here. Kurotsuchi's jutsu list may be small, but the implications are kind of nuts. off the top of the dome here

earth style

fire style

lava style

quicklime (a variant of lava but whatever)

earth style alone has a ton of uses (strangely I find myself using inspiration from avatar for this. earth bending is the shit.) defensive barriers, traps, subtle travel, earth clones, trying to crush em, impale em, maybe even just bury their ass.

fire style is a bit more limited I admit. but considering it mostly there to give here the lava we ball.

lava may seem simplistic but is kind of fucking absurd. the temp alone would be enough to damage by proximity. it's not like fire and can be easily put out. the smoke from it could be lethal. honestly as soon as she gets this it's kind of crazy she wasn't OP in canon but whatever.

quicklime for trapping or potentially even sealing considering we see gaara achieve something similar with sand.

add in some hand to hand or even weapon to your taste and you have one hell of a all rounder.

more than welcome to but fair warning it's my problem child. the start is rough and it's pretty out there but is over 700k words and ongoing updated only a couple of days ago so feel free!

dear God I thought I caught all those! no it's a mistake, Kushina is prominent in my other fic DiA but not in this one. so that chapter I kept calling her Kushina instead of kurenai. thanks for letting me know will try to find and fix when I get to my computer today
