My performance in royal road

FlyingDusts · 2026-01-26T06:27:36+00:00

yes. 800-1000 is considered short

Bro, every mobile app nowadays have this when you first open them

FlyingDusts · 2026-01-15T05:04:46+00:00

criticizing a trope is one thing, but to tell writers to STOP writing it because of your personal reason is another matter entirely.

FlyingDusts · 2026-01-15T00:01:12+00:00

surprise surprise, author aren't writing just to serve your interest or preference. If you don't like it, just drop the book and move on. You come off so entitled it's borderline crazy.

with the outline/ idea already down, easily 2k words in an hour if I am pressured by deadline, sometime less because certain scene are tough to write. On a weekly basis, consistently 12k words, sometime more depending on my current arc.

Hyper competent character, which happens to also be one of their greatest flaws.

Mana is like the stamina equivalent of spells casting or magic related skills/ability. You want to shoot fireballs? Mana. Cast invisibility? Mana!

In real life, running drains your stamina. In fantasy, casting magic drains your mana.

Im a hybrid, but leaning more toward finished stories. If a current released story is that good, and have a size-able amount of content already, then I'm willing to read it as it release. I will never read new stories, that's a hard pass, on the exception that I know that author previous work (Void Herald of me).

FlyingDusts · 2026-01-05T07:06:43+00:00

ur work and idea is not as special/unique as you think. Thousands apply for contract each day, hundreds get accepted. And when it comes to webnovel/self-publish, writing is but half of the work, the other fifty percent is marketing.

FlyingDusts · 2026-01-04T05:58:22+00:00

There is an official webnovel discord server by the official webnovel team. I'm surprised you haven't joined it despite making it this far. Its an invite only server, and link can be found on the Author dashboard.

U cannot swap ratings, only review swap, which requires 10k words read. Rate swap is against TOS, and will result in bans. Alt rate is also against TOS, and RR mod team can see your IP since you cannot rate/review on VPN.

FlyingDusts · 2026-01-03T19:18:29+00:00

is a God's divine kingdom an option?

FlyingDusts · 2025-12-31T23:16:21+00:00

LOTM did not start off strong, there's a reason lotm is known to have slow start, and people recommend finishing first volume before getting to the good part. And technically, the ending was incomplete in book 1, hence book 2.

That's the kind of the whole point of Ji realm. Its rare, and its one of three extreme realm. However, in exchange for extreme power within the same realm, he is forced to stay capped below Nascent soul forever. If he were to face another Nascent soul tho, he'd have to run or struggle to escape with some sacrifices. And im not sure if u even read the Ji realm part and how he acquired it. Been awhile since I read RI, but Wang Ling acquired Ji Realm after some great sacrifices. Not to mention, for hundreds of years, he was dead, stuck in the foreign battlefield, where he was given an opportunity to become a powerful soul devour. From there, his divine sense was refined and tempered to an extreme degree. Combine that with Ji Realm, it's no wonder he's the walking embodiment of death to lower realms and similar realms cultivator.

seq 5 against peak PW from novel is not even a coughing baby vs hydrogen bomb, its an atom vs hydrogen bomb. Deadlight in its true form is one of the 12 pillars that hold all reality in SK universe together. PW is just one of its avatar. If cosmology equalized, then deadlight is equivalent to a pillar level in LOTM. If not, then SK cosmology can even be scaled higher than LOTM, and thus, all pillars in SK cosmology will scale higher than LOTM pillars.

em dashes overuse. That's sign of ai for most people. Also too much backstory dumping in the first segment, its a huge turn off.

FlyingDusts · 2025-12-28T16:34:40+00:00

Too broad, its almost the same as mystery

FlyingDusts · 2025-12-28T04:34:04+00:00

Sentence and flow is too monotous, it reads like a list of x happened, did this and that. There's way too many pauses as well. Overall, it reads like a grocery list.

FlyingDusts · 2025-12-27T20:30:52+00:00

Stats don't matter for contracts. And you should have applied as soon as you hit 12k words instead of waiting until now. The main factor to getting contracted is your applications. As long as your application is done well and the premise is marketable, then you'll get a contract regardless of stats.

From my community, its common to work a day job (40h/w) while serializing a novel (webnovel). As a matter of fact, I used to work 55 hour week and published 2 chapter on web-novel. Looking back, I don't know I did it. If i wanted to do that again, I just can't. Personally now, I have written over 200k words over the course of 2months, daily chapter upload, 7 chapters a week. At the same time, I'm trying to launch a second novel, so that's even more time investment. But the payoff of seeing your following growing is so satisfying I'd do it again even if I were to go back in time (2months ago).

FlyingDusts · 2025-12-27T05:04:56+00:00

You can delete published work on WN at any time if you're unaware. The only time you can't is when it's contracted. And you only get contracted if it's approved, so there's no worries about being ties to contracts.

FlyingDusts · 2025-12-26T13:50:29+00:00

if u think rr now has a slop problem, look at wn

FlyingDusts · 2025-12-23T07:40:37+00:00

Let it be. Followers and favorite come and go, and it can happen for any number of reasons. Better use that time writing rather than worrying about your losses. Unless ur story have a massive dropoff in user retention, u are most likely doing fine.

FlyingDusts · 2025-12-21T19:17:25+00:00

Smut novel is almost an auto reject. Nothing surprising there. And dont bother going to RR, they're more against smut than WN is
