    Oh wow, I just saw my novel being sold on Amazon. What the fuck?

    Like it matters. They literally sell porn. And the scammed products are posted that way to avoid any auto-moderation.

    You can submit a DCMA request, as long as you provide a LOT of proof, and they might not do anything anyway. I tried that when someone stole my story (three of them so far on different sites) and the sites did nothing, until I asked my readers to spam the thing with bad reviews and reporting it stolen. It took a few weeks for them to remove it; but, it worked and I couldn't thank my readers enough.

    Hope you have a nice day Forest.
    But you have to learn to move on from the negativity on your stories. If you are disheartened by it, don't click on reviews; ignore comments.

    The more one thinks how sad something is, the more you feel stuck, sad, and unmotivated by it.
    Felt that way, but for a different case. Its a work in progress to break out that thinking, but once you do it feels so much better + more motivated.

    At least it's better than no comments at all?

    In other news, I learned that 30 bucks is a tiny amount for a Patreon writer. And I thought I was slowly making it big.

    There goes my writing motivation for the day.

    I wonder how much a professional-looking anime cover would cost you.

    Eh, you can tell the professionalism by the shading, proportion, coloring, perspective, etc.

    Yeah, but those are still subjective to a degree. I can get proportion, but what constitutes "professional" shading, for one? Those are stuff that you cannot hard qualify. Once we reach a certain level of "good shading," it starts getting subjective and dependent on your own taste on determining "professionalism."

    Exactly as Eter says. Everything you listed Forest can be the result of how you describe what you want to the artist. Unless you don't make complex descriptions. I do. And they always love them. I write stuff to the very smallest detail and then talk with the artist about their opinion on it. BIAW cover is exactly the way it was in my head.

    Damn, I'm jelly for a 2M view novel with not a single one star review. And barely any review that isn't five star. Even when the review is just complaining with no praise whatsoever.

    Sometimes, I wish you can reply to reviews. Not just because I want to reply to my own, but because I want clarifications on the points the review makes on another story.

    I agree, that would make it a challenge keeping those responses towards the review short. The only good point in doing that would be the advertisement.

    Damn it, I think I'm liking Sousou no Frien less and less lately. And one of my characters took inspiration from the MC too.

    Tournament arc fatigue is a real thing.

    Also, why are there so many fucking forests? I feel the author just reuses the same forest over and over for every scene that takes place in a forest.

    Probably because they're just moving around in a relatively small area. Or the author thought medieval europe was basically covered in forest lol

    Thought I'll get into trending after getting a massive boost on my viewcount. Guess you need a lot of comments too.

    Even these are just one of the small gears in the whole machine. Don't forget the "assumingly" new system where it places a few of new/less popular series in the trending sometimes and also how others fare. Welp, and lots of other things I bet.

    I'm glad one of my readers finally decide to be honest and just say my story sucks. Might be able to stop writing now.
