Nickaido No. I believe that is his personal problem. I have never had such an issue. I can use both app and the laptop to write my chapters; you just have to be careful that you have already updated it on the app (go out properly) and save so that it syncs.
Anyone who wanted to have a contract.....read this!
PsyberRose Thks for the clarification.
Mel_Aniv After I contacted the editors, one of them sent me a link towards a page where I filled some things before sending it. I'm waiting for confirmation of whether my book can get contracted or not. Tell me usually how long doesn't take to receive confirmation message or a message saying that your book can't get contracted?

Avidfan I wasn't saying it was easy, but I've heard of authors slowing down their release rate prior to contact approval to stock chapters for the MGS. I think that was when the old MGS was more favorable though. 4 months is a lot of pressure, but with some planning and being careful, it's not impossible if $6.5 per chapter is worth the stress once all things are considered.
And not gonna lie, but I think that's a pretty pathetic amount since I don't know anyone who can write fast enough to get my country's minimum wage at that rate. And with a contract that pays for daily contributions, it most certainly is a job rather than a hobby at that point.
It's good to state the facts, but it shouldn't be portrayed as an insurmountable task since this is still a viable career option for some people.
Anyways, I would recommend any writer trying to get MGS to schedule their releases since Webnovel does have server outages and internet providers can also be unreliable. Even if illness doesn't strike or if you can manage to power through it regardless, other factors might fail, so any buffer time can be the difference between $0 and $200.
MGS is good if you can stock pile and release to the requirement. If you can't, premium is the other option for funds.
Alternatively you can just contract for free love and gifts. There are options that depends on what you want to earn/get from Webnovel with your story.

It would usually take days or a week. And if still no news, maybe they didn't see it was mature yet. I also wanted to make my other book contracted and was messaging them for four times and it only resulted for the editors to be pissed off on me. Wait for their response and maybe they will reply. Or not, it depends on them.

I think you mean, privilege?
Nowadays, once you decide to go premium after you have contracted, privilege is compulsory - the first tier, that is. Thus, you must make sure you have enough chapters for the first tier when you apply to go premium.
Considering you can have the first tier as 1 coin to unlock 2 chapters, it's not that much really.

Tinalynge But can you still get paid for your writing here without the MGS?
