QTV You can only feel that way if you are an author of great fame. But if you still new? You wouldn't care about rights or even having to write 10 chapters a day, cause at the end of the day, u are still learning and improving and everything else is irrelevant, who cares even if they had all rights to the book, all I care about is writing, writing and improving. And the moment I reach the point where I know that I'm good enough and I have thousands of people reading my work or smth like that ( just an example), then at that point I'll care about rights or writing whenever I want. At this moment, the contract of Webnovel even helps me to get that daily chapter going on and help me try to improve even further. My advice is: Only think about such things when u are a top author.

    QTV The 1500 words per day isn't required tho. Only if you want to lock chapters

      @Choka and what about the fact that they can actually get someone else to complete your book if you are unable to meet the quota. Haven't met anyone who told me this happened to them but i have read in many forums and exclusive contract does have a clause like that which is anything but sketchy

        Shubhangi_Kene The only situation where something like this happens is when your novel is famous and have thousands of people waiting for it to be completed and u suddenly drop it. And if that happens, it's fine if they take it for themselves since u dropped it anyway. And even let's say that they will forcefully take away ur novel which is not something they have ever done without u either dropping it or ruining it entirely, you can simply create a new novel with those skills u finally learned and make a way better version of ur ex book, at the end of the day, you are here to learn how to write and improve and not to care about the rights of your novel or money, these two things are but a plus if u are fortunate. For info, I'm as well but a new author who just started writing and hopped on his exciting journey, and I honestly believe that I have no rights whatsoever to speak of money or rights of a book unless I'm good enough. Let's not be delusional and only think of such things when we are good enough, no offense ofc.

          I am a new author too. And i want to gain experience as well as money. So is it right to get contracted. I mean is it safe. ?

            Sweet_xiyue it's obviously safe and even encouraging since u gonna have to write everyday 1.5k words in order to get payed. At the same time Webnovel helps advertising ur book from time to time which also helps in growing ur fan base. In my case, I got contracted and I'm fine with it, but I don't know about u or other people.

              Can you elaborate about your contract experience if you're okay with it. And which contract is the better option?

                Sweet_xiyue Not yet. My AE submitted my story almost 2 weeks ago xD
                Personally I'm getting nervous even tho they say it could take a month or so. I hear people get AE contracts after a week
