My stories had been posted on other sites and some of my stories are even on Amazon. So I never considered taking the contract offer from Webnovel. Now, I have been offered a non-exclusive contract which allows me to keep my stories on other sites. Any other writers here taken up this offer? If yes, what will this means for me if I take it up, and how's your experience with it?

    Chichii They do. I was offered a non exclusive contract for my works on wattpad as well last year, but I turned it down because I had too much going on with work and couldn't keep up with writing at the time.

      Ghostman it means that you will be able to monetize your work on Webnovel without losing your copyright, but you'll have to share your earnings with the one you sign the non exclusive contract with.

        Demonic_angel Oh, is that what the agent is? If that's the case, then I shall pass. Some of my works had been around for a few years already. Thanks for all the comments!

          I just message from a person from Webnovel to make me do the non-exclusive contract and this was helpful. but I'm still debating, I'm a teenager.

            Eyj_B Check it on the Discord for authors , it could be scam , before try to give your family for signing something legally binding.

              Eyj_B Same, I got a contract from Wattpad. The discord link expired so I can't ask questions. What did you do?

                Mstorius If you want to join the discord but your link has expired, make an account on Inkstone and there's a link there too.

                All the information is on the discord server so first join the sever and then you can find out about the invite, contracts and more details on everything.

                  If I may ask if I write a fan fic do I need to change the name of the character so it will be an original?

                    Hello! Someone messaged me just now that they wanted me to sign a non exclusive contract for my novels in wattpad. What should I do?

                      HaruhiHotori same but I'm still thinking if I should since I'm a fanfic author and also a teenager, I'm afraid it's a scam

                          MissMic Yeah, I got the same text through Wattpad, too. Hope it's not a scam...

                            Its like not a single person has taken a non exclusive contract. Everyone is still just considering which iw sad because it doesn't really answer our question lol

                            I was contacted on wattpad too. Some may liaison? I emailed but she replied like after a month. I asked her some questions but the way she replied was complicated and I just got more confused. I started writing here in hope of earning sum because thanks to pandemic Im broke and can't do part time. I heard people on YouTube say that they actually get paid and its a good experience her regardless. But I guess its just a matter of how past we can get views and such for us to earn real quick. Im going to post a few more chapters before I dig up the inkstone or discord link?
