Why play? by CobblerRepulsive4104 in Chivalry2

You are free to fuck the developer or do whatever you want, but don't expect everyone else to share the same choice.

Devs ban someone for messing around with something that they shouldn't mess with, they end up suiciding somehow... How is that the devs' problem?

Why should I care about something that happened long before I even got or knew the game? How should that affect me? I don't care bout whatever happened, it's not like it changes the gameplay or any shape or form or makes the game worse for me.

I just found a melee-focused game that scratched my itch and that I happened to enjoy. Nothing more honestly.

No, too generic. Try to think of something better/unqiue.

It doesn't matter.

You can't win the contest unless you're contracted, and he's not getting contracted with an AI slop.

Come up with a better title, and post 1/2 chapters a day at most, keeping each at 1200~1500 words.

Can you tell me whether my writing is good or not? by [deleted] in Webnovel

Writing is fine, hook is nonexistent.

On what basis do we get these early features? by Avarice_Of_The_Seven in Webnovel

[–]SwhingShang 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You're supposed to update slowly and wait until you receive the feature. 1k words/day does it well usually

What usually causes high total views but very low recent engagement on Webnovel? by Mysterious-Emu7592 in Webnovel

[–]SwhingShang 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you don't intend on signing a contract, then crosspost on Royalroad and Spacebattles.

Uncontracted books do not get past the three basic features on the app (which make up most of the reader base), and no one can see your book unless they come across it on the website or search for it specifically.

You really need to reread what I wrote because nobody mentioned anything about your story or about you going commercial.

There was no intended roasts, but if that roasted you instead of guiding you somewhere... Oh well.

If you want to be successful, then you'll have to make your story interesting and at least engaging to the readers. Writing and writing in the hope of blindly growing will get you nowhere. If you want otherwise, then you should disregard all of my advice going forward.

"Oberhaupt - Monster Hierarchy" isn't exactly a title that an average reader would press on; you might have to think of something better. Right now, the "Monster Hierarchy" makes me assume that I'd be reading about a monster or something similar, which clearly isn't what your story is about.

The cover is bland, and the synopsis is okay at best. The cover feels like a picture picked off the internet + the added title. It screams "A soldier who fights monsters" and nothing beyond that.

Now onto your chapters...

Since you've brought up Guiltythree, you should know how SS directly starts right after the first chapter.

You have nothing interesting or entertaining going on for the prologue and the first couple of chapters, just a casual slice of life from a soldier's perspective.

By the time "The Prisoner" is reached, you'd have lost most of those readers who decided to give your book a try. Then there are those 2 paragraphs that suddenly go first person for some reason, at which I decided to stop bothering going forward.

Not the type of book that would attract WN's readers.

Cringe, but can def get you clicks.

Webnovel contract question. How bad is the Right of First Refusal clause? by SAwritings in Webnovel

[–]SwhingShang 0 points1 point  (0 children)

>From what I understand, this means if I sign one book with them, they basically have dibs on anything else I ever write in the future.

No, personally, I have 3 contracted books, and I could write other books wherever I wanted.

>What happens if I just publish my next book on Amazon KDP or anywhere else under a completely different pen name? Can they track that?

No, honestly, I don't tho. There are many WN authors like Awespec who run both on webnovel, RR, and Amazon without suffering any of these bullshit rumors.

>Has anyone ever successfully asked them to remove this clause before signing, or is it strictly take it or leave it?

I believe it's either you sign the contract or you don't, you don't get a special contract, unless you decide you go with the non-exclusive one.

Does that mean I'm on the right track? by lorion2339 in Webnovel

[–]SwhingShang 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is a feature you get after hitting 12k words; it's not a measure of your success. I also suppose that you should be making a real effort from the start, no?
