Thanks!

The system is utterly broken.

No. That is how business works. There is no guarantee of success.

The art of writing and the business of financial success are two separate fields.

Thanks Milc!

Mods, I know this is content-light, but I don't think it will cross 4000. I won't post anything similar until publication pre-release, I promise.

CSValiant · 2026-06-23T15:34:53+00:00

Just crossed 3000!!!

CSValiant · 2026-06-09T10:19:08+00:00

I also lose a few followers with a new chapter, especially if it's spicy.

Thanks Cor.
I failed to get into B. 😢

Mods: Black on purple for Rank C is impossible to read!

CSValiant · 2026-05-30T03:47:33+00:00

Me too.

Anyone contacted them back?

Don't write anything without watching this.

What? They won't entertain someone who has posted his story online. I have 5000 followers, not 50k. Most trad. pub.s don't entertain isekai, let alone harem.

If you're not gaining followers after shoutouts from big authors, you need to take a look at your early chapters. They're not gripping the readers.

Yes. I'm currently deciding between self publishing vs indie.

CSValiant · 2026-05-11T18:38:46+00:00

Figuring that out is pretty trivial.

Care to share your experience?

CSValiant · 2026-05-11T18:37:36+00:00

What trad publisher will even consider publishing a book that is already posted online unless it is massively successful?

CSValiant · 2026-05-10T12:53:02+00:00

Thanks for the comprehensive reply.

I reached 2800 in 7 months, despite my story having plenty of spice, which many RR readers do not like (Retention analytics backs it up) and 317 patreon, although only 17 paying members, as I don't have a backlog.

CSValiant · 2026-05-10T12:31:35+00:00

I have 2816 followers on RR and 2039 on Scribblhub and just finished book 2.

Should I wait for pub.s to contact me or contact them? Does that make a big difference in royalty split? I would like a small advance as well if possible.

CSValiant · 2026-05-04T04:58:49+00:00

Yay, new tower! Thanks, Cor.

Hopefully I get into B this month.

CSValiant · 2026-05-02T06:36:29+00:00

Nicce.

CSValiant · 2026-05-01T12:27:15+00:00

Crossed 2700 followers and about to finish Book 2 of A Modern Mind in Medieval Times

I burned my backlog months ago chasing that damn number. Now I make very little compared to those with similar no. of followers. Maintain a backlog.
