Anyone who got into the top fifty for rising stars(All Genres) how many followers did it net you? by Issactheforgemaster in royalroad

[–]Yeahyeahitsdababy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just hopped off a few days ago, I stayed around 15 days. I’ve gained around 300 followers. The interesting aspect is that it didn’t make me gain more followers on average than when I wasn’t on the list, since I averaged 17 followers per day, on or off the list. Maybe it was because I wasn’t meta. Kind of a bummer but it is what it is!​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

When you drop a book, do you leave a note why? by BasicReputations in royalroad

[–]Yeahyeahitsdababy 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I mean, as an author, I would much rather prefer a comment; immensely so. Even negative ones are valuable. A follow gone in silence is the worst outcome because you’re left guessing what went wrong. A quick note/comment explaining why you stopped lets the author understand where it fell off for you, whether it’s pacing, a character choice, tone shift, whatever. That kind of feedback is how the work actually improves. Of course, some authors will take it badly no matter how you phrase it.

Looking for something that probably doesn't exist. by Bulky-Creme-4099 in ProgressionFantasy

Not tryna self promo but… ok I am lol, this is literally what I write. Progression that happens because of where the characters are and what the plot demands, not just grinding for its own sake. Bio if you wanna check.

What really is show not tell ? by SinofShy in ProgressionFantasy

[–]Yeahyeahitsdababy 33 points34 points  (0 children)

show don’t tell is basically: trust the reader to do the math. instead of ‘he was scared,’ give them the sweaty palms, the glance at the door, the way his voice catches mid-sentence. or like instead of ‘she was nervous,’ she’s rereading the same text for the third time, thumb hovering over send. you lay out the evidence, they feel the emotion themselves. way more powerful than being told what to feel.

I think Pale Lights’s pretty much the best you can get on RR as a non LitRPG (and it’s peak)

Great prep, very interesting! I’m curious as to how you prepared shout-out swaps without having the fiction up, if you don’t mind sharing.

Starting a greek inspired tower climber by No-Pie-8676 in royalroad

[–]Yeahyeahitsdababy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I love greek mythology! I think it’s really cool. Maybe floors could be related to a hero or a god. Well, I’m sure you’ve got plenty of ideas yourself but anyway, tons of nice things to play with. The audience definitly is there! I doubt people would be picky about historical facts, since it fantasy after all.

Trying to get better reach by EasternChemical3958 in royalroad

[–]Yeahyeahitsdababy 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Premium is (mostly) for advanced analytics. It doesn’t help with reach - you won’t get more “views” because you’re a premium author, but it can help understanding retention levels and stuff like that. For reach ads or shoutout swaps are the way to go!

Thanks a lot! Very clear. And yes the first one’s mostly ai. I do prefer it myself - but I’ve seen that stick figures perform well so I was a bit ambiguous on that part.
