As a whole, web novels are infamous for content sprawl and pacing issues.

Not too often though. When I get around to it,the next thing is checking the rest to see if they're sold on Amazon or elsewhere. Maybe add a publisher column since that'd only be a few. Possibly an Audiobook column. I could a verification column, though I don't know how many would be willing to do that aside from anonymously posting in the thread that it's them. That's not enough. If anyone has any other ideas for it, let me know.

>Moonshadow Gu had a unique use. It was able to suppress the primeval essence in a Gu Master’s aperture. That means, with a C grade talent like Fang Yuan, only having 40~50%, if they were hit by this Moonshadow Gu, they would be unable to deploy a single ounce of primeval essence, losing all their battle strength and were as good as crippled.>Of course, if it were Fang Yuan, if the Moonshadow Gu was used on him, it would be ‘throwing a meatbun at the dog’ - what’s gone can never come back.>That is because once the Moonshadow Gu enters his aperture, the Spring Autumn Cicada will demonstrate its dominance, and under its aura, the Moonshadow Gu would be instantly refined by him, and become his.

>>24781806Yes.

>>24780225They dont spell it out for you explicitly with how little the anime covers, but honestly if youre paying attention and actually think about what the cast is going through thats the conclusion you should get through anyway. They show up with no idea of who they are or where they came from and are promptly introduced to the draft office where they are informed they can either work for their meals(serve as irregulars in the military) or starve to death. Alsowhile it wasnt clearly apparent in the show the rest of humanity outside the 'beginner city' is basically in ruins and/or anarchy despite the city the story starts at being the frontier. The story is told through the eyes of retarded teenagers though(the perfect draft material) so they are pretty much entirely unaware of whats going on in the greater world as theyre just trying to make it to tomorrow.

>>24781541Anon, you're probably talking with an AI jeet trying to get a quick buck with his AI generated litRPG harem story
>>24781897Caffeine used to be nothing to me in my teens, then in my 20s it started working and was a huge aid for focus without hindering sleep much, and now in my mid 30s they have enough of an effect that if I drink any caffeine after 2pm I have a hard time falling asleep.When I'm writing specifically it helps me stay on task and focused rather than tabbing away the internet or other bullshit. And the dopamine effect makes me look forward to writing time every day, and it has a further beneficial effect as an appetite suppressant which is good because I'm on a cut.I'm not saying everyone has to drink as much caffeine as me. But I do find it very helpful.
>>24781913we are not seeing the black thread here.We could be generating hundreds of sloppy AI harem novels and earning enough money to spend the rest of our lives writting our real novels.
>>24781925As disgusting and revolting an idea as that is, it's simply not feasible. AI slop is garbage and nobody likes it. The low IQ people who fail the turing test and find AI slop acceptable simply generate it themselves. That's why retards fell in love with chatgpt 4 individually rather than all dating the same AI model and persona (which would have been way easier to monetize).Pull your head out of the Ganges and stop posting retarded.
>>24781924I doubt it'll have an effect, but I'll go buy some tomorrow.
>>24781964that's the spirit, anon
>>24781964Er, I'm going to feel bad if you go from zero caffeine in the last year to 500mg in a single sitting and have a heart attack.Ramp up slowly. Maybe just sip on one across an hour or two of writing.

>it's another useless catgirl anxiety backstory chaptercan she just die already or something
>>24783153the anxious catgirl is what makes the story good
>>24783158it's literally just paragraphs of dumb and boring anxiety, and she literally serves nothing to the story other than inconvenience the protagonist
>>24783166she gives the story an emotional corebut yes, also clearly a plot device
>>24783172A weak core then, if I literally have no reason to care about her. She's just a pitiful puppy from first appearance, and her being there or not has no effect on the story.
>literally>literally>literallyhad a bad night's sleep and my vocab is taking a hit

I loved Donut, but some people literally stop reading the series because of herLots of people like the catgirl, and yeah, lots of people don't like her too>her being there has no effect on the storynow that's just silly, she's been a major plot device for more than half of the plot beats. the story revolves around her fundamentally
Guys, just 10 follower left to 200 forFFF-Class 'Unlucky Antagonist!'Is the anon who did Elf-GF art still here? If yes, are you willing to draw the 200 followers special?
>>24783205>she's been a major plot device for more than half of the plot beatsI'd say she's been a major forced plot device if anything.After her rescue arc, they go to Meridian on Vivi's behalf. The whole train scene forcedly involved the catgirl. The classic uptight noble scene could have happened without the girl. She happens to forget the one item she cares about in the world, only to force an extended action scene (with many annoying catgirl anxiety chapters).Then in Meridian, we get more catgirl anxiety, getting to the inn. Vivi does her thing, then goes on a whole arc going around the city secretly to formulate a plan that targets the catgirl's source of anxiety, walking on eggshells to avoid asking the catgirl (and thus causing her anxiety). Then she outfits and trains the catgirl, leading to a few more catgirl anxiety chapters. They visit the library and get more catgirl anxiety scenes. And now we finally get another catgirl anxiety chapter.>her being there has no effect on the storyWhat I really meant is that her being there doesn't cause the plot to advance. The story would have gone on whether she's there or not. She's just an accessory that takes 80% of the screentime.
>>24781813Adorable
>>24783107Like Manyu Scroll?
>>24783284I've always thought this system in particular was retarded and completely arbitrary
>>24783230Wait. You've been posting all this time, uninterrupted, shilling your story every chance you get, and you've got 200 followers?Jesus Christ.
>>24782381Vile space merchants who would sell out their families if it meant profit, and this is a well-known established fact by pretty much everyone who has a silver of wiseness, they play off both sides of a galactic conflict to preserve their autonomy and who knows how many lost generations they've produced as a result of their scheming and setting piece battles where millions are just typically expected of any one battle, in the century and a half this war has dragged on.
>>24783308I don't think it's that arbitrary, it follows it's own logic consistently and looks that way because new Warrens can be created. It's just not apparent to the reader what that logic is. I find it more interesting than a simple one where the gods or whatever created it to be a certain way and it stayed static like that with no effect on it by dragons, elder races or eventually humans.Of course it's probably not suited for web novels, it's better to have a simple system there.
>>24783318you should be the 201th
>>24783318My story doesn’t aim to throw a bait into a large pond hoping to catch as many fish as possible. Instead, it focuses on creating a slow but steady influx of readers who will stay and who don’t expect to be pandered to in how the story goes.So, I’d say I did a good job overall.
>>24783230BRO KILLED HIMSELF RATHER THAN ACCEPT MY MONEY!
>>24783347Seems like he doesn't want to be associated with you. Or get depressed by AI art. Or maybe he took starving artist a little too seriously
>>24783348Right now, I’m so fucking sad. His art was soulful, and I kinda daydreamed about hiring him to illustrate the official release of my book.I've lost a friend today....
>>24782381They're elves. Literally, stereotypically, elves. Humans manage to piss them off so badly the elves go on a genocidal rampage trying to kill all humans and become known as demons. It's a bit of a plot twist later on because the demon threat is known ahead of time and it's only when they show up in person that the reader is clued in.While I do have humanity broken up into races I just don't even get into racial differences outside nationalities. All humans are white, just different tribes/nationalities. They are, of course, prejudiced in their own ways but it's explicitly just a matter of cultural chauvinism and competition for scarce resources. There are also class differences that are relevant for plot reasons, but remain unexplored in terms of whether a class-based society is good or not.I hope readers find it refreshing to read a story where the bad guys are clearly aliens, and humanity is just different kinds of white and there's no racial allegories or any of that bullshit.
>>24783318>guy writes a lot, posts frequently and steadily, and puts effort into marketing his story>gets followersI'm shocked. Utterly shocked. The guy consistently did the thing that leads to good results and is getting good results.
>>24783371I think we have a very different understanding on what is a 'good result'.
>>24783377For his story, it is a good result>not written to the larger RR market>not heavily advertised>not shouted out by a large network of successful authorsHe's taking the slow and steady approach and he's getting average to good results for that approach. The more followers he gets, the more RR will recommend him below other stories that those followers are also following.It doesn't seem like he's monetizing his book(s) through either patreon or amazon, so I'm not sure what his endgame is, but if he's in it purely for the love of the game he's doing well (even if his posting style is obnoxious, it's within limits).
>>24783371I've uploaded like 1/4 the content he has by now, have mentioned my work here once half a year ago, am currently sitting on my second long hiatus, and I still somehow have twice as many followers. Just how terrible is his story?
>>24783393How many views after chapter 1, Mr success?
>>24783393> Just how terrible is his story?Do you even need to ask? It's awful.
>>24783402Ahem...masterpiece
>>24783393Read it and find out!
>>24783398What do the views matter, if they just look once and don't subscribe?
>>24783416This.You’ve probably pandered to some popular story---the one that gets hordes of tards who subscribe forever---only for you to go on hiatus when they all lost interest when you have tried and failed to bait and switch.

>>24782736It's okay but that dumb mopey shit is the worst part of it.
>>24783433>making nuances with the whitesYep. I know exactly what I'm doing and that's part of why I don't like my story here on 4chan. My author persona is a total goody-two-shoes and politically oblivious who just so happened to write a humans vs elves story with extremely strong european vibes and heterosexual young romance and a huge focus on family and overcoming adversity.I got a comment IRL from someone when they saw the MC on the cover and it was like they couldn't imagine such a european-looking hero. I just smiled and said "yeah, that's him, what's wrong with that?" and they dropped the subject.It turns out, representation does matter and I'm doing my part. Even if the actual writing and structure isn't the best because it's my first story lol.
>>24783433I'm still writing its big beautiful backlog, I showed a few of the immediate alpha version chapters dealing with them but they didn't get much eyes on them, oh well. Maybe next time
>>24783318I'm grateful to him for his shitty shilling ways, because when I searched out his story, which sucked so bad I dropped it on page one, I stumbled upon FFF-Clas Trashero, which delighted me for about eighty chapters before devolving into incoherent MTL nonsense that was still more engaging than Unfortunate Antagone or whatever the fuck shill-kun calls the slop ChatGPT rolled up for him.

>>24783854>seethe every time he's brought up?Stop being a samefag schizo. I don't seethe and complain everytime he appears, but he is annoying. Multiple people can share the same opinion
>>24783870I post here because you are all my frens.
>>24783885>but he is annoying.Yes. He's vaguely annoying at worst. But the schizos constantly seething about him are even more annoying.
>>24783887I'm not your friend
>>24783887cute
>>24783891>I don't seethe and complain everytime he appearsJust told you that I don't constantly complain about him, but I guess you're so retarded as you can't read. Or you're a samefag schizo
>>24783904I'm not even referring to you at this point, I'm speaking in generals, you dumb fuck retard. Holy shit nobody can fucking read here.

>>24783912Its ironic, isn't it
>>24783892You willHUG
>>24783893Are you the anon that avatarfags with a harpy and was writing a story like a poem?
>>24783917It's in that sweet spot of irony, but also exactly what you'd expect.>4channers>capable of reading or skilled at reading comprehensionI love it. It's my favorite post of the day.
>Have idea>Realize the conflict would be political in nature>Ugh
>>24783945Political conflicts aren't against the rules, just IRL politics. And even then I think that's only on RR, I don't know if webnovel or other sites have that rule.
>>24783963I meant writing political shit is boring and a slog, unless I just have the MC assassinate the lord and say everybody lives happily ever after.
>>24783966Nah there's a decent audience for political intrigue. At least several Japanese webnovels have done well.Realist HeroGenius Prince's Guide to Raising a Nation out of Debt (Hey, How about Treason)Ascendance of a BookwormImperial Reincarnation: I Came, I Saw, I SurvivedEven ASOIAF is largely political intrigue. It's just a different kind of story than shounen power fantasy with flashy fight scenes.Don't give up on your idea just because it's not Primal Hunter.
I learned how to make art assets so I'm making a visual novel instead. Statistically speaking, visual novels do better than webnovels and often gain a patreon following almost 300% more often. I'm also going to make it include a fetish, further boosting my chances. Cya later suckers, no matter how well you write its just not gonna attract an audience while I'm gonna cruise by on easy mode
>>24783986>I learned how to make art assetsMay we see? What style is it?>visual novels do better than webnovels and often gain a patreon following almost 300% more oftenSource?And where do you post them?
>>24783986>Statistically speaking, visual novels do better than webnovelsmaybe in 2008
>>24781020I had 5 followers. Now I have 2.I guess that's what 2 months of hiatus gets you. Poetic.
>>24783986u sure? are you underestimating how many successful web novel patreons there are? it was my understanding that vns are kinda impossible to make money with
>>24784031Rip anon.
>>24783986Let me guess, it's ntr
>>24784028I can produce them at a rapid pace and at a high quality, and it isn't AI if you were wondering. I've been actually sitting on my ass on this process for a while, since last year. If I reveal this process, it could possibly create a new wave of art spam, since anyone who's good with a computer can learn it. Which I don't want, as scarcity is important for something to be valued. >>24784030I will post here a few months later on the progress of the patreon
