    Beta Readers No Longer Needed

    I haven't read it, but I'd heavily recommend to NOT have such long chapters. For web novels, most people drop off if a chapter is too long. Rather than 10,000 per chapter, 500-1,000 is better. This is from personal experience, btw. (longest chapter I've ever written was 17,000 words...)

    Bulk import, or multi-chapter adding, would be nice!

    I couldn't really find much information on that feature, though. Like, will it just upload and release chapters from a PDF or whatever file format, or can I schedule them? Feature sounds great, but I need more information that doesn't seem to be findable about it, oof. Funnily enough, I have...

    Help needed!!!

    I would suggest checking out this section of FMHY which focuses on learning languages. I tried every AI translator tool, and each one scorned and ruined my novels far too much, not even being slightly acceptable. As for official, real translation companies (ones that don't ALSO just run your...

    Non prudish alternatives to Patreon?

    Thanks for all the suggestions! Losing a $100 a month source of income really, really hurts. So I am just going to go for broke, and set up pages on every site, haha.

    Non prudish alternatives to Patreon?

    So, uh... my Patreon account just got nuked. (I am guessing that it was from Syrilblia being uploaded there? Maybe...) Besides Subscribestar, are there any other platforms similar to Patreon? Hopefully, ones that aren't so willfully prudish still exist... (And by that, I mean sites where...

    On Author Dashboard, allow more Novels per page.

    I should add that, I only recently realized that you could sort novels, so this really isn't a problem at all. (I just sorted the novels that I am still working on at the top, which makes it so that I don't have to go forward a page, haha.)

    Allow Links in Novel Description.

    Thanks for the reply! And, yeah. I will keep all my novels posted on RoyalRoad and Scribblehub. (IE, I am not taking that specific Amazon KDP deal.) As for content... Just counting released chapters, I have well over 1mil words posted on this site. (Going by what RoyalRoad says.)

    Allow Links in Novel Description.

    IS IT!?🤯 Edit: I can only find rules for the forum, not the rules for novels. Which do state that offsite links aren't allowed in some cases. Clarification on this would be nice, as I do not wish to be breaking any rules. Thank you!

    Allow Links in Novel Description.

    I know that I bring up features from Royalroad that SH doesn't have a lot, but this one is cool, too. Not having to push people to go to the first chapter when they want to purchase a novel is nice. It would great if you could do the same on Sh, so I don't have to spam author notes with links to...

    On Author Dashboard, allow more Novels per page.

    This one is suuuper niche, but is something that would be nice. Already, the author novel dashboard thing has two pages for me, and as I have many, many more novels planned, I only foresee it getting longer. In reality, for me, this is an extremely minor thing. After all, I tend to just...

    The Ultimate Guide to Writing Novels with Obsidian!

    :Introduction: Hello, like many writers, I am insane. Insane in the sense that I need my workflow to be as perfect as humanly possible. Most writing software, such as Scrivener, word, etc. Aren't up to these tasks. Most of them have major, major drawbacks. The solution? Obsidian! Literally, it...

    Writing Scheduling chapters tip!

    Whichever timezone Arizona is in, I think? Or whatever timezone that I set my account to. (I totally forget these things all the time, oof.)

    Writing Scheduling chapters tip!

    Hello, if you're like me, you have ADHD, OCD, Dyslexia, etc. And scheduling chapters is a nightmare in a half. The solution? Well, it isn't perfect, but it will save you hours upon hours of work. My new workflow for novels is as follows. Write a chapter>Edit it>Save chapter as draft on...

    Add to the chapter scheduling system.

    Oh, I didn't see that. But such a thing would take a decent while and time to implement. I feel like, (I am a game dev, but not a web dev. So take my words with a grain of salt.) just adding an extra option to the scheduling would be easier and faster to do.

    Add to the chapter scheduling system.

    The system works fine. That is... unless you have to schedule more than a couple of chapters. For instance, I had just finished my latest novel yesterday(it finished getting published on amazon) so I had to schedule the chapters for it today. Thankfully, I started to save each new chapter as a...

    Easy way to schedule chapters?

    I think the only solution would be making some script to help with it. Just did forty chapters of volume three. I think it is a better idea to just upload the chapters you have, but schedule them far into the future, so they won't release until you're done with the novel. And yeah, RSI's suck :T

    Easy way to schedule chapters?

    Is there no easy way to schedule a bunch of chapters? I just finished uploading and scheduling volume two of Celia, but I have to do the same for Royalroad as well. It took me over two hours to do that on just this site, though...

    Named chapters, yes or no?

    If a character makes a joke in that specific chapter, or does something specific, then just use that as the name.
