I signed a non exclusive contract and for almost two months my book still isn't up.
What is the reason for the delay?
Non exclusive contract
Whendhie1 Book isnt up? What do you mean?
Lullabybao when you sign a non exclusive contract, they open a different account entirely and post your book.
I signed the non exclusive contract almost two months ago and my book hasn't been posted. They keep saying the delay is from webnovel
Whendhie1 huh? I have never heard of such a thing. Usually you have to post your book in Inkstone, after which they give you your contract. As far as I know, they dont create a new account.
Which website did you post it? Inkstone right?

When you have problems with the contracts, it's generally the best idea to contact the one you signed the contract with.
When I published my books through the non-exclusive contract it took quite a long time before they were released on the website, but every time I had questions, I asked the one I had contact with, and they would give me an update on the process.
Lullabybao I posted on inkstone. I honestly don't know what is happening anymore.
Whendhie1 Then.... I'm not sure if I can help. I've signed an exclusive contract so... I dont have much info about non exclusive.
You should contact your editor through discord. They will help you out with whatever info you need.
But I was genuinely concerned. There has been a lot of scams going on. They claim that they are webnovel and make people sign contracts.
Lullabybao I'm really tired of this. But thanks for your help.

I have signed the non-exclusive contract with EMP for five of my novels. Whenever I began the signing process for a new novel, I was told that I should expect that it would take quite a long time before they would go live on Webnovel. I do not remember exactly how long it took, but it did take quite some time. However, even so, all novels are up now and it is working pretty well.
I can understand your frustrations, but I don't think there is much else to do than wait.
Zanyyy Hi, how long did it took..? Because my contract is in processing
Sweetdreamer20 mine took like a month before it was finally uploaded on Webnovel.
Sweetdreamer20 Hi... When did you sign your contract?
[unknown] a week ago
Sweetdreamer20 Alright.. My books went live just yesterday. So don't worry. I guess it just take some time.
