where are the werewolf books?
metgoda soon... Soon... Right after I complete this series kind of book I'd probably write a story on the co-exist ant of werewolves and dracukas and a twisted plot of deceit, backstabbings and cross mutation.
Imagine a werewolf with little itsy bitsy bat wings on its ears and try to fly in the darkness of the dark that had been shrouded with low hanging and heavy clouds while searching for a victim walking among the wet and slippery after-downpour of the dark alleys that were crawling with varmins and creepy insects.
Hahaha

BattleLord BattleLord She is right.
There's a simple reason for that, people on sites like RRL, Wattpad and now Webnovel don't try to create classics (or maybe they did in the beginning but not anymore), as those do not generate popularity. See for yourself, all the top 10s on this site are either generic porn plots with some fantasy, or generic divorced romances (I call them like that because it's most of the time 30 yr old single ladies who read that).
A good story requires time, preparation and effort. in other words, everything that goes against what generates popularity here.
Let me explain:
1. One of the main ways to generate viewers is to update daily and consistently. For a good book, that's way too hard. It's not impossible, but a lot more easier for the shitty books.
2. To keep viewers, they need to look forward to new chapters. Meaning, every chapter needs some instant gratification, which is why many books here have a that repetitive story line which builds up two chapters to give a small face-slap. A good book, which requires foreshadowing and exposition will be admonished as too slow, or having nothing occur.
3. You need to update chapter by chapter. Every good author knows that every good book requires a draft and countless editing. That is not possible when you update chapter by chapter. In a traditional book, you complete the story before publishing and thus can look back at any mistakes you made in the plot. But here, it's not possible, since you already updated it.
To conclude, if you want to be popular or earn money, it would be wise to go against your judgement and write those 'shitty' books. That is also the reason why there are so many. Can't really blame those writers, really. It's just how the system works.
Though funnily enough, the person you replied to has written one of the deepest books on this site, dealing with life-death, judgement and justice, love and betrayal, heroes and villainy. One of the most philosophical books I read, though it can drag on at times. Also, it's well written (most of my English, I learned from there lol). It is, by my definition a good book, furthermore it manages to do so under these grueling circumstances..
Rebirth of a Broken Demoness, check it out hehe.
Lildickyrida You hit everyone of my angsts in one reply and added a book to read as well. Thank you for your comment.
In my opinion while this style of writing provides amateur authors with a platform to publish and theoretically a modest income. I believe it ingraines poor writing habits that will cripple them from writing more than eObituaries in the future.
The comments each chapter are rarely better. I like to think of them as a book club where readers discuss the virtues, failings, or insightful tidbits the author might be presenting. Instead, they are full of self interest begging for mass release, thanks and other one word bites to qualify for daily SS bonus.
When I am through reading the few novels that drew me here, I may return to purchasing enovels. They are cheaper than this and provide food for thought as well as entertainment.
PaperbackWriter sounds cute and funny, I am looking for something deeper, with a plot or better yet a tapestry of them, interwoven and revealed as the novel unravels. Where threads become knotted and characters emotions are strained to the breaking point. Finally a conclusion that may or may not lead to more.
Good luck on your story. This website needs more science fantasy and less sitting around cultivating.
Hi there! Just started writing my first werewolf fiction!
Feral Confessions - Adrianna and the Alpha
https://www.webnovel.com/book/13855323005708205/Feral-Confessions---Adrianna-And-The-Alpha
Would love your review on it:)
silentscarlettt I started writing one! C'mon silentscarlett - how could you forget that lmao
BattleLord well... If learning about chakra points, practising meditating breathing and gathering energies around you to create psi energy balls...it doesnt sounds like cultivating does it?
The horrors of book titles that include cultivation, rebirth, reincarnation, ceo, et cetera really puts me off.
BattleLord well, uh, checked in and saw someone recommend my book. I hope they haven't overhyped it o.o
Anyway, have fun reading, and if you like it, feel free to leave your thoughts!
Lildickyrida hahahaha.
Maybe I'd write a shitty little novel right after this one which most what web novels are after anyway.
MishaK ok, I just finished reading chapter 1 and I feel this is a great story. Plenty of action off the bat, smart combat scene that involved a shift to utilize the shapeshifters human form to wield a knife. Even included a hint of elemental or shamanic magic.
While it sounds descriminatory, I find I can't identify with female main characters. That being said more books should be written with female leads. Authors of my generation were predominantly male and I enjoyed imagining myself in the main characters roles. Women should enjoy the same pleasures of strong role models.
That said, the lead character going into heat when confronted by the Alpha is different from male characters placed in the same position. It's death or forced submission, a testament to mindless violence that has served caveman to marine for generations.
I recommend this novel to women who enjoy strong female main characters and werewolf fantasies novels with a hint of sex in chapter one that I am certain will developed into a steamy romance within a couple of more chapters!
Lildickyrida Rebirth of a Broken Demoness. I agree, this novel is interesting starting at chapter 1. Quote, "Born a guy, died a guy. There's absolutely no sense in changing my gender after I had entered purgatory." LOL, so the story has a gender swap theme at the get go. I can't say I have read many with this theme, so I am interested by the smart writing style and insights. Checking his chest and Adams Apple, my gender identity and primary concerns start lower, so I assume Author Hyowha is female.
Regardless, I will be reading at least a few more chapters, and at 91 chapters this should be a good read. Thanks for the recommendation.

BattleLord The FL is a strong one. But then there are some rules when you write this kind of fiction and you have to conform to them... Thanks for taking a look at it.
