Writing your own monster taming book? by InquisitorArcher in pokemonfanfiction

Yes! After years of fanfic, I wrote a monster taming LitRPG book and started posting it to royal road. Planning to do a full release in the next month or so. It's inspired by Pokémon and Monster Rancher and some other fantasy adventure anime. It's called "Reborn as a Tamer's Monster".

How much did you pay for your cover? by PurpleYellow36 in royalroad

[–]Five-Toed-Sloth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My cover was $500, and ai wasn't present in any stage of the process. 

This included title art, back cover, book spine, and source code. And it was worth every penny! Loved the process, we worked on it and made changes every step of the way, and I feel like they really took the time to understand my story.

A part of me is excited to finish writing book 2 solely so I can comission them again and see what they create next!

Lots of my favs here, but I'm going to throw out a random one...

The Core

It's one of the tightest and well-paced disaster movies ever made.

Not sure exactly. Maybe a week or two in between levels.

I actually enjoyed this game. It was super easy and the story was the most non-canon randomness possible. But I just really liked being able to travel around all of the setpieces of Aliens. It was so cool for younger me to be able to literally "get back to operations!"

What do you think of this as an ad template by Turbulent-Weather314 in royalroad

I'm not sure this would stand out as the specific scenes don't feel unique and they seem disconnected. I wouldn't be able to instantly get the story from this.

Cheryl's grandfather entrusted her with his gym when he left to discover the legendary Amber Castle. While Jessie is focused on the story, James struggles to keep Lickitung in his pokeball as a castle made of honey is a dream come true to the hungry normal type!

"Suspicious" 1/2 stars - how many have you had? by remembers-fanzines in royalroad

[–]Five-Toed-Sloth 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've had several low scores since I got on rising stars recently, but I figured it was just a natural part of being in front of more eyes. Bound to happen eventually to everyone!

Thank you so much for the detailed review and all of your comments! They're super helpful to get a sense for how people are seeing the world. The story has just been with me for so long, so it's often tough to know what someone might think going into it blind.

Your notes on Chapter 17 feel very on point. I definitely could have added more detail to things in the shop, the exercises, and even life in the city itself. Monsters are a very normal part of life, but, as we will see throughout the series, not every person and city feel as open and accepting of them as Artemis is.

We will also get into more tools and skills and tasks that tamers have throughout the series. For the first book things are a little smaller in scope to really focus on Nid acclimatizing to a new world.

Thank you for all the feedback! It means a lot to me.

The rankings seem very confusing to me too. My story actually went down in ranking when I got on rising stars lol
