How to delete a story??
- Edited
LostInFictions Be glad that you don't have such readers.
Then again, your Begin Again story is so beautifully written and amazing that it's impossible for anyone to hate it. Almost everyone who reads it agrees that it's excellent (I have yet to see a single negative comment or review on your story, other than a single person finding the first chapter confusing - I personally don't find it confusing, for what's it worth, I think it's a lovely first chapter, and I'm still waiting for you to upload your fifth chapter). So I guess it will never be something you have to worry about.
Ah, I think it's just really kind of you to say that. I agree with everyone who finds my first chapter confusing. I didn't realize while writing it back then that it seemed fine to me because I knew the characters but it wouldn't be the same for the readers. I plan to edit it whenever I get time though.
That's right to a great extent. I have got a bunch of beautiful souls who have been extremely generous when it came to appreciating my works. You are yet found a negative review on my story because 70% of people who have reviewed Begin Again so far are the ones who have read my previous works and they ended up liking this one as well. Kind people, I told you. I have a couple of Webnovel readers also and even they have been kind enough to me but I am sure, sooner or later the story is going to receive criticism. I wouldn't mind as long as it is for the story. A couple of personal attacks and I ain't quite sure how I would react. I can't really take them.
You shouldn't have deleted your story. Doesn't seem a good decision to me.
LostInFictions Nobody was reading it except the guy who told me to delete it, so it's no big loss.
I look forward to your updates! Hmm, I thought your first chapter seemed fine to me. I like Evelyn as a character, and you really put in a lot of detail into her perspective and offered us readers a glimpse of her daily life (or job), and the emotional/psychological obstacles that she is currently facing. But that's just me.

Tomoyuki Nobody was reading the story? Views are deceiving?
Junior college - second year. I think, I have mentioned it in the second chapter.
It was just a while ago when I was telling my sister that I am a little too invested in Begin Again when I clearly see not a lot of people are finding it interesting enough to stick around. Nevertheless, the story has so insanely got inside my mind that no matter what happens, I can't drop it.

LostInFictions Yeah, her assignments. Damn, somehow I missed that. I was focused more on her inner conflict and her interaction with Caleb, my bad. Don't drop the story! It's great and has a lot of potential!
I dunno, I never checked views. Views are deceiving, they are always artificially inflated. People often read the story multiple times, so you've to divide them, and most of the views are from bots. And I bet 99% of the remaining views are from people who only read the first chapter and drop the story immediately after that.
I think, I have said it earlier also and I'll say the same again. We can't please everyone. We are not supposed to please everyone. We are not here to please everyone. Everyone has a different perspective and liking. I don't exactly remember if I have read it in the reviews or the comments in your story that a bunch of people do not like the protagonist wearing specs. I personally love people with specs. I find it really cool.
You get what I am trying to say? You can't really be giving up on your story because some people do not like it the way it is. That way, you are snatching the read from the people who are actually looking for the same stuff. You are snatching their chance of reading who are in need of it. Believe it or not, sooner or later, one always finds people, who can see the things the way one wants them to see - the story and the characters here.
Tomoyuki yes my own story,,
LostInFictions yeah. I've done that. Gone all rock star and erased my story. That's because I was under a belief no one reads it, so I have my tanty and get away with it. Undiscoveredness does that for you.
Veronica8 I know. It's all about for how long one can manage continuing despite the low (or maybe no) response. It's hard. Especially for the beginners. I remember, when I had just ventured into writing - I needed people to respond so that I could write further. It was a desperate need, which I believe is quite natural for a lot of us thrive on the response but over the period, my perception has changed and now, it doesn't affect me the way it used to do. Gone is the silent complaining attitude and what is left is only gratitud - for everyone who invests any amount of time in my stuff.
Have you reposted your story?
Cheers.
LostInFictions Yep. Well one of them anyway. It's contracted here. Why? I'm still scratching my head. It didn't have readership when it's was not contracted here. But, that wasn't the reason I signed the contract anyway.
You're the same LostInFiction from WP? I've been planning to read The Golden Ribbon for a while.

Veronica8 That's right but I'll suggest you not to because I don't plan to update - not anytime soon. I feel so guilty everytime someone mentions TGR. I receive a bunch of DMs every now and then asking for the updates and I am still yet to learn the lesson - not to start multiple stories at a time. I could write them once though but then two years ago, I got diagnosed with a serious health condition that puts a lot of restrictions on my activities - especially writing. I am taking it VERY slow now. Sigh.
I suggest you to try Nynaeve's Deception though if you already haven't. That's a completed and a mind boggling piece of work.
LostInFictions Thanks! I'll give that a go. I'm got free time coming up and really itching to read stories I've been want to read for a while. I like to read uninterrupted. That's hardly ever due to real life annoyances lol!

Veronica8 Do that. I am quite sure you would enjoy Deception.
I got a notification from you the other day but seems like I have lost your username now in the bunch of notifications. Is is the same as that of here? Your reading lists had some good stories I remember. I was looking forward to pick some.
