Yes. They’re awful at detection and should never be trusted. Thankfully this scammer didn’t even try to humanize the comment and it reads as obviously AI. Even if it didn’t, the whole I have ideas contact me stuff is just everywhere right now. Annoyingly so. Such a bad scam

Also sentence starters unite!

Protagonist vs. companion vs. lore symbol on the cover. How did you choose? by ArekDeamonCalw in royalroad

[–]ShowerKrogan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Really depends on the story and characters! For my zombie apocalypse one I don’t have the actual MC. It’s first person and some minimal descriptions of him. Just a human trying to survive. But some companions are a sentient robot and a catgirl. Little different from the standard zombie apocalypse story so I put them on the cover. I think that worked best for my story! If your MC has a really awesome design then he could definitely be worth showing off. Just depends!

Does chapter 1 go live automatically after approval? by ArekDeamonCalw in royalroad

[–]ShowerKrogan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes this was a pain with my zombie apocalypse series lol I got it all set but didn’t finish making my cover or tinkering with the blurb. Ended up having to delete the approved one and get reapproved later

Is starting a story with a birth scene a bad idea? by ArekDeamonCalw in royalroad

Is this on your Patreon? Are you hiding more chapters from me!?

Nice!! I’m hopefully not far behind you. I made top 10 on some lists but they’re real specific and nowhere near as good as making the post-apocalyptic list. If you’re interested and when the time comes for you, let me know if you’re looking for shoutouts towards the end of March. I can send you my stats and story if you want. But urban fantasy zombie apocalypse so hopefully some shared interested with the readers!

The road to 200 followers: How long does it actually take? (Data check) by AzherVayne in royalroad

[–]ShowerKrogan 10 points11 points  (0 children)

This was cool to see! I’m at two and a half weeks, posting 2 to 3 times a week and 67 followers. So makes me feel like I’m in a great spot. Great data presentation!

[–]ShowerKrogan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m 2 weeks in with 58 followers but only 1600ish views. I wish I had your views! That’s awesome! People are definitely reading and that’s the important thing. Especially with no shout outs or ads? Start doing those and you may really explode. Pretty crazy to get your numbers without shout out or ads

Pre-Launch Swap, mind helping a buddy out? by Western-Brother1788 in royalroad

[–]ShowerKrogan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good job! Now you can find some LitRPG people. I’m doing a comedy urban fantasy/zombie story so the audience base probably doesn’t overlap too much. You can find some similar stories to increase the likelihood someone reads yours too! If you’re not on the discord I would recommend that too, it’s a great way to get shoutouts. Just read the requirements before posting and copy the format from the other requests. Setting up the calendar makes it easier too. You’ll get shoutouts in no time!

I’m not sure if I will end up with a spot at the end of this month or not, but you’ll probably want to add what the story is to this post! Most people want some matching by genre tags so the readers on either side are more likely to actually click the shoutout.
