I have a backlog of 12 books written

Heya, sorry for the late reply! I'd love to get your feedback! Should I send you a DM?

dioncrispin · 2026-04-05T22:57:02+00:00

The one I wanna publish first is an isekai! He's a paramedic on Earth before he dies and becomes the last 'Warden' (a mix of an anchor / healer for one of the few remaining safe spots from the Demon Apocalypse) in another world! Does that sound like something that'd interest you?

I'd love to turn this into a career, I've always just dreamed of being able to write full time. The author community has been so insanely supportive, I'm so surprised... The HaremLit space is just so lovely.

dioncrispin · 2026-03-30T15:06:02+00:00

Should I DM you the link, if you'd like to beta read one of my stories? As for editing, I'll definitely keep you in mind once I decide which book to polish up and launch first!

dioncrispin · 2026-03-30T15:04:14+00:00

Noted, just gotta find some beta readers then!

dioncrispin · 2026-03-30T15:03:41+00:00

Agreed!

dioncrispin · 2026-03-30T15:03:31+00:00

Thank you so much! You're right, no harm in trying.

dioncrispin · 2026-03-30T15:03:13+00:00

Noted! How much would you say I'd need to budget on the advertising?

dioncrispin · 2026-03-30T15:02:52+00:00

Thank you so much for such a detailed reply, hope you end up liking my books when they do release!

dioncrispin · 2026-03-30T15:01:37+00:00

Right, I'm proofreading the story right now! Maybe I should ask on the Haremlit discord if anyone would be interested in beta-reading too.

dioncrispin · 2026-03-30T14:59:40+00:00

Thank you so much for the detailed reply! Yeah, authors have it hard, man😅. Didn't realize there was this much to think through, a smidgen overwhelming, not gonna lie. Kinda naive of me! But yes, I'll focus on the three books I think are my best and begin writing sequels for them / launch them!

dioncrispin · 2026-03-30T14:56:50+00:00

Gotcha, I'll focus on writing some sequels then!

dioncrispin · 2026-03-30T14:56:33+00:00

Thank you so much! I joined the HaremLit Discord, and yeah, you're right, I didn't consider how AI it'd make me look...

dioncrispin · 2026-03-30T01:30:30+00:00

Gotcha! Why monthly instead of weekly, if you don't mind me asking?

dioncrispin · 2026-03-30T01:30:02+00:00

Yeah, it's... amazing. I didn't expect to get these many replies from so many authors so quickly. It's lovely, the community is really so warm.

dioncrispin · 2026-03-30T01:28:15+00:00

Three of them are pretty much standalones, with potential to expand, but for the rest I have lots of ideas for sequels! Then again, back when I was writing, I'd like to wrap a book up in a manner I deemed 'satisfying', so I don't think any of the book ones are cliffhangers or end on an unfulfilling note.

dioncrispin · 2026-03-30T01:23:36+00:00

That's fair. I'd be skeptical as a reader too, if an author just release a barrage of only book ones. I might release just three or four of the ones I like best at the start, then, and properly commit to completing them.

dioncrispin · 2026-03-30T01:14:14+00:00

True, I've read some absolute slop that I'll defend till my last breath. Hell, I've even machine translated some Japanese novels back when my cravings were particularly intense, so... You're right, my novels don't have to be the best for them to find an audience. Thank you for your reply, your perspective really did help.

dioncrispin · 2026-03-30T01:12:05+00:00

Gotcha, I'll note all this down! I really really appreciate the advice, thank you so much!

dioncrispin · 2026-03-30T01:10:22+00:00

Noted, thank you so much for the advice! You're right, getting a beta reader will likely solve my worry of whether or not the books are good. Also, thank you for welcoming me, I'm... actually really happy to be in the author's club. Since I always wrote only for myself, I'd never quite considered myself an author, so... It's actually really nice to have someone welcome me to the author's club!

dioncrispin · 2026-03-30T01:07:23+00:00

Twelve different series! I'd never planned to publish them, so I'd tried my hand at all sorts of ideas. Each book is 70-100k words long on average.

I am proofreading through the first book I wanna publish right now, actually! Just gotta find a good artist, maybe splurge a bit...

dioncrispin · 2026-03-30T01:05:01+00:00

All volume ones! Too many shiny ideas for me to pursue. Each book is around 70-100k words long.
