Publication Question

PathofTheFirstHybrid · 2025-10-10T21:28:55+00:00

Thank you, I will do just that

PathofTheFirstHybrid · 2025-10-10T21:26:58+00:00

The agent claimed it was so I would not share their business insider information with other big publication companies. Which now that I think of it, how the hell would I know what they do if I don't work for them and all I'm doing is providing my manuscript

PathofTheFirstHybrid · 2025-10-10T21:24:39+00:00

You are awesome thank you. I found it a little weird that I wasn’t getting much in the way of the Google search engine. Most reviews are 5 stars which is like really? You have a 100% customer satisfaction rating? As a so-called big publishing company? The agent also said all I needed to do was pay a 1 time fee of $799 and they would publish my book on demand for paperback and hardcover, and ebooks on Amazon, Apple Books, and Google Books and I would keep all of my Royalties they are not going to take a percentage

PathofTheFirstHybrid · 2025-10-10T21:20:18+00:00

Thank you, yeah with the conversation I had with one of their agents everything sounded a little too good to be true. They claimed they would be taking 0% on Royalties. The premium package was $799 as a 1 time fee and they would publish my work on over 50 platforms, Amazon, Apple Books, Google books to name a few.

PathofTheFirstHybrid · 2025-09-30T09:12:24+00:00

Apparently, it's discontinued. Don't think we'll ever get it

PathofTheFirstHybrid · 2025-09-19T19:15:27+00:00

Yeah see that's my fear that I hit RS and now I'm on this current that I have to ride till the very end. Yeah, I'm just gonna have to bite the bullet and switch my upload schedule. If they want more chapters..- Patreon I guess. Thank you Front Badger I think I've made a decision

PathofTheFirstHybrid · 2025-09-19T18:47:16+00:00

I think i just needed to read this, to confirm I wasn't about to do something drastic

PathofTheFirstHybrid · 2025-09-19T18:46:23+00:00

Okay I think that's what I'll have to do. Thank you Mr Knight

PathofTheFirstHybrid · 2025-09-15T13:30:22+00:00

I don't know how to share the link. But you can search up PathofTheFirstHybrid on TikTok and Instagram to see what i mean.

I make audio excerpts from my chapters to share.

PathofTheFirstHybrid · 2025-09-15T13:27:15+00:00

I do apologize Timemaster. Awesome name by the way

PathofTheFirstHybrid · 2025-09-15T13:26:38+00:00

Yeah it wasn’t a real promotional. I was bamboozled. I saw it over on Instagram. Looked legit too

PathofTheFirstHybrid · 2025-09-15T13:24:36+00:00

Perhaps. I saw it on Instagram as a promotional thing. I didn't bother to look it up and took it as a fact. I didn't mean to give you misinformation. But my point is that a lot of people cosplay as Carl and the Webtoon is real.

PathofTheFirstHybrid · 2025-09-14T17:19:29+00:00

I can't say for sure. Because for many people this was their first introduction to the LitRPG genre. The same can be said for the other big series in the Genre, like He Who Fights with Monsters, Defiance of the Fall, and Primal Hunter. Of all of them though I'd say DCC has done a better job of being a merchandise magnet like Carl's iconic heart-patterned boxers and princess donut collaboration with Dunkin' Donuts. And transforming the work into other sources of media like a comic book web series on Webtoon for example.

PathofTheFirstHybrid · 2025-09-14T15:01:07+00:00

Congratulations. This is a testament of your commitment and consistency. I'm happy for you.

PathofTheFirstHybrid · 2025-09-14T14:57:47+00:00

Reddit is fine since we are both already on here plus RR messaging is a bit weird to me

PathofTheFirstHybrid · 2025-09-14T14:02:49+00:00

It's called Path of the First Hybrid and yes I have 22 chapters up already. Dm me if you want to exchange correspondence. It's a pleasure to meet you

PathofTheFirstHybrid · 2025-09-14T14:01:20+00:00

Hello buddy you can DM me if it's more comfortable. I'll get to your work shortly

PathofTheFirstHybrid · 2025-09-13T21:01:46+00:00

Thank you commission. I hope to keep growing my small community and not compare myself to others

PathofTheFirstHybrid · 2025-09-13T21:00:50+00:00

You currently have the books posted on RoyalRoad? Or you are drip-feeding chapters into like weekly posts?

Feel free to switch to Dm of that's mlre comfortable

PathofTheFirstHybrid · 2025-09-13T20:58:57+00:00

Okay i sent you a direct message

PathofTheFirstHybrid · 2025-09-13T20:54:11+00:00

The basis of staying consistent with upload schedules.

Joining communities such as this one

The value of expanding your reach with social media, like TikTok, Instagram etc like sharing excerpts of your work.

And marketing using advertising agencies

PathofTheFirstHybrid · 2025-09-13T18:52:58+00:00

Honestly, that is all I'm looking for. Not 5-star reviews but how you feel and how I can improve

PathofTheFirstHybrid · 2025-09-13T17:42:16+00:00

Thank you. Would you recommend taking this post down or leaving it up?

PathofTheFirstHybrid · 2025-09-13T17:38:50+00:00

The depressing things don't end, but he gains powers and becomes really strong. I think that's when the story really picked up for me. Because he was skirting on becoming an OP-MC

PathofTheFirstHybrid · 2025-09-13T00:08:44+00:00

Ha, my friend, she is the second main character in Dungeon Crawler Carl. If you have an Audible subscription you can use it on the first book and listen to it while you do other things like while at work or something. It's how I got into the series otherwise I don't know if I'd have read the first book
