PsyberRose So much so that even when one person announces they have dropped your book, you don't get upset anymore. You don't like my book, even as far as hate it? No book is loved by all. It's fine, but I still don't see the need for you to tell the Author you are doing so. It's so passive aggressive.
Whenever someone tells me that, with the new gif/img options available on Webnovel, I'm more than happy to post this image.
Tomoyuki hahahaha! Good one.
I reply nicely though, and just say 'thank you for giving the book a try'.
If the person means to upset you, nothing would be more fitting than to make them see it doesn't bother you. Though your image is more suitable, esp if one is being in a sarcastic mood. /heh
I'm not a writer, but im following an underdog/new writer and I could feel how upsetting it is that there are not much readers who interacts with the author or leaves comments and review. If you want, you can paste your novel titles here and I'll go check them out and leave comments. I will also ask my twin to check it out.
But be aware that I am brutally honest with my reviews.

KristineElias check out my book and give me your honest opinion.
nmendes066 I don't write on Wattpad anymore as there're no readers there for me. Hasn't been for a long time. Webnovel has a lot of vocal readers that is if you write to the mainstream here. There is a higher chance for readers here than Wattpad. At least for me it was the case.
Hello All,
So I am new to the site and I just feel like it's super difficult to even get readers let alone reviews. There is zero engagement on my book and it kind of demotivated me because I am writing sorely for the readers and you all can relate to how busy we all are. My issue i that I am not a native English speaker and that is what may effect my writing to an extent.
Is it me or it's the same with everyone here? When ever I think of new ideas I just starts assuming my book will be super popular with the readers with how unique it is but later it leaves me disappointed to see my book not getting any recognition and readers not engaging with my book or trying to interact with me.
I don't want to drop my book yet because i feel it has the potential but at this rate how no one is showing any kind of interest I might just drop it.
KristineElias If you'd like, you can check my novel Duality.
The writing starts somewhat rough, but I feel that it has improved a lot in later chapters.
JohnnyKbca will check it.
Social_Butterfly52 Unless your book has no views or no one added it to library.. then don't drop it..

It's that kind of experience with original concepts and innovative writing. It's a lot harder to convince readers to commit to originals at this place because readers here are light readers. They only have enough time to read what they already know. It's the reason that trope and clichés work well here. The energy to invest in new originals is thin. And the search function is buggy and not in favor of new originals. It leaves a chunk of the catalog undiscovered.
So keep writing and finishing the story even knowing it might not be read. A writer is as good as their next story. You can get better over time if you keep writing and reading to learn more about writing.
Also renowned authors have faced similar situations and asked similar questions. Brandon Sanderson wrote 13 books without making a single sale on them. So this indicates they weren't being discovered and read. If he gave up back then, he wouldn't be the author he is today.
I'd be happy to hear your thoughts, tear me a new one I have thick skin and would love an honest opinion.

KristineElias hello, kristine. Thank you for appreciating underdog writers. Idk if I'm good enough too, but I would really love to hear honest thoughts about my work. I'm getting demotivated now, honestly. Feels like I lost my feeling of having fun when I write. So if you have time, I hope you can check out my work too. And thank you very much.

Looking at you guys post, I just came to a sudden realisation that hardly anyone ever read my novel only happens each time I post. I honestly just realise that I was the one who started the novel and I enjoyed writing it cuz ever since I started writing my novel. Honest to God, I have not seen any novel worth reading to me.
I feel like my novel is another world where I can just escape reality.
The feeling of satisfaction you get after each complete chapters is what I long for!
I don't know about yall, but I just honestly realised I didn't care if anyone read it or not. you can confirm as it was only once I did the stuff called review swap and that was like a few minutes ago. It was also only once I promoted my novel.
I just love my novel a lot
. To the extent I didn't realise ii needed to be promoted
mssuigeneris I'll check it out.
Typhlix There is no need to. The author of the book Daughters of House Castellan, have been sent contract invitation twice, yet she did not sign it because she said she is writing for fun. unless a better offer goes by, I think. But, yeah, you don't have to be pressured by being a great writer if you are writing for yourself.
lilGoat Okay.. I'll check it out.. will leave a review too..
