Tomoyuki

I mean, some readers never remove webnovels from their library, whether they liked it or not.

If you repeat to every reader of yours how awful you and your story are, it's like unpromoting yourself.

Whatever you write, you should at the very least be your first fan and defend the good points of your novel. Writing 890k words needs some real commitment as bad as you think it is. Some great authors can't do as much.

Remove all your negatives author notes and fix what should really be fixed, or start anew. But 5 collections with 2M views, there's definitely an issue.

Just my opinion.

      Tomoyuki 2 million views and almost 900 thousand words is a lot of work, it's cool! For what period of time? Great performance!

      In just 1 year, 1 month, I was able to write only 4 complete stories, 1 drop, 701,000 views, a total of 332 collections, 463,100 words, 516 chapters. And you are so cool! Not every writer can write so many words. And before a bad comment, how many collections were there?

          Arkinslize The issue is definitely with me, and there are no good points of my novel. There are only bad points. And I don't mind unpromoting myself - I honestly hope people stop reading my story. Everyday I get a new comment telling me how they hate the story, how they hate the protagonist, telling me to stop writing, telling me to delete the story, or "TRASH STORY. DROPPED." Those are the only comments I get. There is nothing positive about the feedback I receive, and my story must be really horrible if not even a single person has anything good to say about it in the comments.

          Gourmet_DAO I posted this story in...June or May last year, I think, so maybe about 10 months now. There were zero collections. I don't think it ever went higher than 5. Nobody likes my story. Most readers say that I'm the worst writer on the site and that I'm an embarassment to Webnovel (Ariq is one good example), and demand that I delete my story and tell me to gtfo because I really am that bad.

          I think I will follow the readers' advice, delete the story and quit writing for good. The very existence of my attempt to write a story has offended thousands of readers, and it's best if I just disappear forever.

                Tomoyuki Didn't that novel go on a contract? Some of it's chapters are locked under paywall, so I imagine it did.

                Somehow I don't believe a word of what you're saying. 5 collections and 150 power stone votes this week? Not to mention going on a contract?

                Just stop it...

                    Tomoyuki Of course, the writer depends on the reader. But sometimes the reader is biased. You have 5 readers who read you. You are a great fellow, could write 900 thousand words in 10 months! This is a very good performance! 2 million views! for 10 months, it's really cool!

                    Do not stop writing! You can write for your reader! You can write a new novel! You can take a new nickname if you are afraid of bullying. But quit writing is not necessary!

                    This is such a thrill, it shares its thoughts, sometimes getting honest reviews. Try to improve yourself!

                    Well, I was delighted with your performance !!! 900 thousand words in 10 months! I wrote less than 500 thousand words in 1 year and 1 month!

                    What is the secret to writing so many words?
                    And what is the genre of your novel?

                        Tomoyuki Those stats make me confused. Not matter if you or others think that your novel is bad, there are still many other even worse novels that still have more reasonable stats than these which make no sense to me. So I don’t understand how that’s possible.... Regardless, if you like writing the story, then keep going and ignore the haters. Give yourself more credit. I think you’re pretty awesome, and almost 2 million and 1 million words are huge achievements.

                          Tomoyuki Preferences are subjective. If a mass likes something, it doesn't mean every one will like it. Then, there wouldn't be any uniqueness, making the world a boring place. So, your story probably found its way to a unsuitable audience, that were unable to appreciate the hours of work that has to be put in writing. Just seamlessly hating on it, which shouldn't discourage you. Your are doing much better than them who were unappreciative of your works. At least, you have something original than their banal hatred.
                          Personally, I write for fun, being uncaring to both my good/bad reviews or collections/views.
                          So yeah, don't let it get to you and keep on honing your skill as an author. Find a better purpose too, for why you write. I already said mine.

                              I think you should be happy with your word count. That's extremely impressive to accomplish and you definitely should keep going until you reach a million. I'll take a look at it and collect it some time soon.

                                  This one is for my owned series.

                                  Original Music Makes: 1187:1

                                  Pretty realistic since I only have two collections and 17 chapters to date. The story is new to webnovel, but not for everywhere else. Oddly a lot more views than expected for a new release here. Yet the story hasn't been showing up on scrapper sites. Weird.

                                  Book one of this story is completed at 95K worth of words. Likely be about 100 chapters for scheduled release.
                                  I'm revising it to be a re-released light novel paperback and ebook in May/June. Like SKC, I intend to continue this series to the end here. I've planned 7 x books for this one. Like SKC, wonder if I can last the distance.

                                  Seriphyn Knight Chronicles SKC: 289:1

                                  Not bad considering I'm starting from scratch with this one. It was Zaldizko previously, but I decide to make it a new book page under its series banner. Since my intention is to continue the entire series to the end. I have 10 x books planned for it. Be interesting to see if I can endure. So far, the word count for this story is 145k and 180 chapters scheduled for release. That kind of takes the story into September on automatic releases. :grin:

                                    You are too damn OP. Please share the secret of your OPiness with us humble ones, Your Excellency! :pray:

                                        RABBITICOL Haha. Call it a death wish. I intend to saturate the Google with my useless book junk by the time I bite the dust. I want to at least have 20 x paperbacks and maybe 100 x ebooks of various sizes self published to virtual stores. I'll be saturating those shelves so much that my name will be like furniture parts. :smiling_imp:

                                            Tomoyuki I always see you in the comments talking about your story and how bad is it and people saying you bad things about it.I dont understand why you always care about them always try to talk about it.I saw your talking with other people about the different things I am sure you are not "lame" person , but I dont get why do you care about people thoughts about your novel.Just do your thing and write , and not look back , It is not that hard for you I think ?

                                                Hi! Nickaido here.I just started publishing my novel eleven days ago but I have 3.2 K views with 9 collections I don't know if it's good or bad.No comments or suggestions for now,the silence is killing me.

                                                  I remember my other book I dropped doing way better
                                                  Although my book hasnt got enough words to reach the newbie rankings yet, and guessing yours hasnt either, I feel like our books might suck 😅😥

                                                      21K views and 210 collection update in 5/6 days

                                                        Tomoyuki The haters gonna hate.
                                                        Look at it as honing your skills, practice if you may, write some more.

                                                        I'm gonna check out your story.

                                                            Nickaido leave the link to your novel I will check it out. Also, I can't tell much the comments on my novel are concentrated on a few chapters other chapters are just barren of comments.
                                                            Also, my reviews are pretty barren too.
