Hello! I am a newbie author as well so I won't be able to help much. But for me, the easiest to write would be those in realistic fiction. Other genres needs a lot of explaining from the writer which I find hard. Ex. Those cultivation novels, you have to explain every detail of how this and that works so as to not confuse the readers who doesn't know about it.
Err this is just my own opinion. I don't mean that the realistic fiction doesn't need explanations. It's just that for me, it's the easiest.
And if you have a confidence problem with your novel, I'd suggest you find someone you're close with, to discuss your story. Have their opinions or so first, (I did this actually) good or bad, it'd feel better coming from them.
Choose the genre you are most relaxed with. Different people have different writing styles. I wish you good luck! I hope you'd gain more confidence.

RyZiinG Your first novel won't be good. (I believe only at Volume 4/5 of my story, this Rabbink could make something that I will be proud.)

For example: Current first ranked author in Original AuthorWiz first account could write current Rank 1 novels after this many trials:

WizOFTime at RR

Very few could make a masterpiece.

The best thing is just start. Don't aim for popularity. Aim for you to practice.

If you look at my novel. The beginning is WORST. Gwahahaha. [Luckily, some people could move pass those Wall of Text and Information.]

The easiest genre is the one you like. Some people suggest FanFics since you don't need to make the background and characters. However, I don't think so. A Fanfic needs to 'know' about the original story and adhered to it.

Negative Feedback would always happen. Check my novels. People who like will give 5 stars, who hate will give 1 star. If you went to RR that would be even harsher, with critics everywhere. Go there only if you confident, their standard is higher.

Sometimes the critics are correct and helpful for me to fill some plot armor and find my weakness. Yet, not all suggestions should be added, as an author you should filter them. Whether that would add to your novel. Would that change your beginning 'goal'?

However, some critics are truly TROLLs. You can check the reviewers history, see how they commented to other novels. It is not hard to find a troll. If you see a troll. Just move on. They loved to make war.

Remember since you make novel for free. The one who should enjoy your story is you.

If you are afraid of feedback, then you should not publish it before it was completed.

If you want some 'check':
I would suggest you to 'study' (not read, read is for enjoyment) The Red Bride (It is a female novel, but even as a male you should check it). It is the best Original I saw based on the words fluidity and description.

Then check 'Reborn: Evolving From Nothing' if you didn't have SS or check The King's Avatar if you want to check the translation. If you want more sample.

'Showing and Telling' is the biggest barrier that made a difference between a good author like those and common author like this Rabbink. A common author could tell the story, but a good author could make the reader experience the story.

Bin auch ein deutscher, haha, mein Englisch ist ganz ok und fehlerfrei aber auch nicht perfekt. Solltest aber schon auf einige Grundregeln achten, kann viele abschrecken wenn du die Verben nicht richtig konjugierst oder Groß-Kleinschreibung nicht ganz einhälst. Wobei allerdings es anderen komplett egal ist und trotzdem das Geschrieben mögen ;)
Das Thema des Buches sollte dich interessieren, und du solltest dir darüber Gedanken machen was du damit erreichen willst, wo deine Charaktere enden und wie sie sich entwickeln sollen. Ist besser wenn man ein grobes Bild vor Augen hat. Und es muss nicht ewig lang gehen solange du dein Ziel erreichst, aber am Besten nicht mitten in der Geschichte iwo droppen. Das mögen viele verständlicherweise nicht.
Ich schreibe an zwei Storys, und für mich persönlich ging es darum eigene Ideen aufzuschreiben die ich originell fand im Vergleich zu den Storys die hier veröffentlicht werden.
Ich wollte auch ein Mix kreieren, zwischen diesem typischen Chinesischen Genre und den mir bekannten Westlichen (Fantasy) Geschichten.
