I wholeheartedly agree frnd. This conversation was like a thorn to me to see everyone popping crazy numbers in thousands.... I only hope that one day people will atleast think about my novel once in their lifetime...... Maybe thats pushing it tooo much.....

    I only hope to write a chapter in two to three days so that I cansatisfy my meagre readers.... And not make them run away...

    My biggest threat is not even the views and collection count...my biggest threat is myself...what if I get bored writing more chapters?...will I ever finished my story? So, yeah...many writers abandoned their own story due to many reasons...my biggest challenge is how to finish my story to the very end and not suddenly stop in the middle, that is what am currently focusing at...not so much on the collection and views, ( they will come later if it's meant to be )...because finishing a story is the most important thing and the most challenging for new writers like me.

      LexieM3 if your asking what collection is, its the number of people who have saved your novel into their library.

      If you’re asking where to find it, it’s in ink stone next to views

          Lizabelle88 Try planning an ending and maybe a few major events in between. I know some writers enjoy coming up with things on the spot, but I found that doesn't work for me all the time. I need a detailed plan to follow so I wouln't run out of ideas and become frustrated (and, you know, quit). Hope this helps.

            i have 1.5k views, 49 collections, one auxiliary chapter and one actual chapter and that sums up to two chapters. it has been exactly one week.

            Lizabelle88 Thank you for the pep talk. I was seriously wondering if I should just end my novel and move on due to lack of response. No reviews and only a single comment so far.

            My underwhelming numbers stand at 25 collections and 74.6k views for 33 chapters totaling 74k words or so since August.

                Xyphon_Storm Wowww, that’s awesome dedication! Really respect your perseverance to keep going.

                I had a quick look and your writing is good! Language is perfect with proper grammar, etc, with clear descriptions of every setting. Not sure why the response rate is so low.

                Maybe a bit of rebranding with a new exciting cover, book title and synopsis? And from what I’ve read in 3 chapters, yours requires a bit more immersive reading, so some scenes need to have a different, more urgent feel to it like the fight scenes so that there’s variations in pacing.

                Keep going and don’t give up! 😊😊😊

                    They were both made around the same time. The first one’s on pause. I wanted to finish the second one as it’s shorter and then continue the first one but now I've decided to just write it over as I think it could be better now that I've read it a few months later. They have both been out for about 9 months and I'm a new author. I occasionally get some power stones from them, though it has never reached above 20. If you know, can you tell me if this is a good amount to have and what is the average amount of collections a new author on webnovel gets? Because I'm not sure if I'm off to a great start or am doing terribly bad.

                        I've been writing since the beginning of 2021. So, this is slow in my opinion.
