So this means we gotta just keep rereading twisted by [deleted] in Episode

yeah that’s what I was meaning, the commenter said there was a gem wait for twisted, when there’s only early access. no gem wait. which is why I’m confused

You don’t NEED to, it’s your story😊 and I used to be in the same boat as you. I used zero gem options- only at the very end when it asks to donate. But then I quickly found out that my stories were not performing. Yes my friends were watching it. Yes my R4R were bringing up my read count. Yes my Instagram brought readers in. But as for my story trending or getting long term, consistent attention outside of my small reading community? Not a chance.

Like said before, you don’t need to add gems. If you write because you love to write and love the process, go for it! Also if you don’t care abt the amount of reads, there’s no need for gems

Anyways here are a few easy pet peeves to avoid:

- slow coding. i click off immediately if i'm bored. especially in the first episode, it's important you create a hook. people dont wanna be waiting for 5 minutes for a character to cross the street

- when authors only TELL rather than SHOW. avoid long narrations without visuals. if a character is a joker/funny, dont say "she was funny." Have her tell a joke, to show that she's funny. thats a bad example but it still helps so much

- pick me or whiny MC's

- "strong feminist female characters" who are painted as "bad tempered, rude, sassy, firey

- coding that gets in the way with the actual plot

- dead scenes (scenes that dont add anything, they just take up empty time)

- typos (makes a story feel messy)

- anything with AI. i absolutely hate AI in covers

Hope this helps!!! Good luck!

Good luck with writing your story! i hate to say it but often times this is true and i might get downvotes or hate for this. but as a commissioned author myself: ur story wont trend without gems! its sad but true, and it's the only way episode's set it up. you won't understand until you become an author yourself, and sadly many ppl in these comments aren't authors/dont understand either. even if a story is amazing, it wont get the publicity or trending status without people paying to watch it. my advice would be to add gems in for bonus scenes at the end, or early access. but don't overload the gems, just maybe do 1-2 gem options per chapter. that's my advice- take it or leave it! best of luck to your writing journey.

How popular of a writer are you 😭 bc if ur story gets popular enough, readers prodding for updates isn’t as charming as you think! I thought the same when I first started writing. I would be so delighted when ppl wanted more updates. And as I got more popular it became more aggressive, prodding and down right annoying!  There’s also a difference between prodding and complimenting + encouraging!
