HIGH FIVE YOU BROKE ASS PEOPLE

I have more problems and events in life than difficulties for authors. So, sometimes I don't know what to write here.

A co-author told me to write something fictionary, like dramatize what happened in Discord. I thought of doing that today but I can't even remember the drama, so I have to skip it. I also don't want my friends to think that I'm using them for my entries here.

Anyway, I want to write something about errors, habitual mistakes, and others that readers caught in our books. Some are even unusual ones. These might sound funny but a bit disturbing to us authors. With no further ado, let's start rolling.

1.) I got this reader's review in my IGMB book.

-Although I have not read too much, lemme summarize the first 9 chapters...
Ending of each chapter: "Little did she know"
Please have better cliff hangers as I read on.- 

Haha, I didn't realize it until this person pointed it to me. I laughed and felt frustrated at the same time when I read it. Don't think of looking for those errors now, I've changed it right after he told me.

2.) This one I found in another story but I won't tell on what book.

-He often puts too many thoughts into one sentence, and it can get exhausting to read. In addition, he uses the same physical descriptions too often. For example, whether it's "knitting eyebrows", "cocking eyebrows", "raising eyebrows", "lowering eyebrows", or "quirking eyebrows", the character's eyebrows are in a constant state of flux. In fact, the word "eyebrow" comes up 435 times in 40 chapters.-

Readers, please be forgiving to us newbie authors. 

3.) I saw this one as a meme but it's hilarious.

-I'm sure a spy is near. She wears shades, black. She wears that usual color, black. Her clothes, black. Why writers always describe a spy or villain as if these characters love black colors?-

A color problem when describing. I'll take note of this and make sure my villain and spies wear bright colors.

4.) I got this one from the forums.

— The fact that ONLY the protagonists can coome up with new ideas and methods. Everyone else just follows their predecessors and assume they were right as the methods are time-tested. This is the biggest reason for protagonists in cultivation novels to go from weaklings to OP...and its just lazy.-

What can a newbie or even veteran authors do? But follow the style or topic of famous books.

5.) Can you consider this as a review or hiring advertisement?

- Hello! Let me know if you need an editor. I can help you when I am free. :) that is if you are interested hahahahhaha. I just wanted to help you out. -

Ugh! Please, English is not our first language. Have mercy.

6.) Grammar errors are common reviews.

- Dear author. I hope you'll read this. I'm a bit confused with the word you use sometimes. Is it CHANGE or CHANCE? Aside from this, i love the story and the development. The characters as well. -

Most authors here really need editors. 😅

7.) I don't know what to say with these reviews. I'm speechless.

Harém Harém Harém Harém Harém Harém Harém Harém Harém Harém Harém Harém Harém Harém Harém Harém Harém Harém Harém Harém Harém Harém Harém Harém Harém Harém Harém Harém Harém Harém Harém Harém Harém Harém Harém Harém Harém Harém Harém

8.) This is one of the worst reviews. I don't know what to say. (laughs, sighs, and frown)

.......i am commenting to get power stones.....😅....thanks for constantly updating😉...😊....huh?...its still not 140 character?😅

9.) Uhmmm.

If you are going to read this, do not waste your stones. Web novel wants your money. This novel is already available for free on websites if you search for it.

Please, support the authors by reading it here.

10.) I wonder, why books with Original mark on it are mistaken as Translated?

— Thanks translator. The book is getting more interesting. The CEO is becoming more human... -

— The translator should consider releasing more than one chapter a day. —

— I like the story, it's a very nice story n the translation is good. -

- End of Reviews -

Why am I posting these here? Because these reviews and comments are part of the spices of the authors' lives. 

Honestly, I love to read reviews from my readers and to get an honest review makes me happy. But I also feel bad when I receive negative ones, mostly only criticism with nothing helpful to improve my story or writing skills. Somehow, this is part of life. 

Come to think of it, famous authors received the worst, and they just shrugged it off.

Anyway, as long as people read our stories then our hard work is worth it.

Started as an entry for fun and submitted for writing prompt #63: One chapter post but still ongoing.

 Please add tags: #diary #drama #comedy #author #writing

Please read my ongoing story:
The Sorceress' Heir: Blossoming Youth and Power

Prologue

[The path to achieving immortality is a long one. One has to have a sheer will and enormous talent. I don't know if you will able to reach it but you don't have anything to lose right. So, why not give it a try?]

I stared at my screen as I read those words. Those were the words the Immortal Spirit has said to Tang Xu when he had first met him.

I was reading a novel called [The Immortal Cultivator]. It was a modern day fantasy novel which I have been reading for some time.

It was a typical novel in which a ordinary boy finds a old dusty ring by chance which has a Immortal Spirit in it and embarks on the path of cultivation.

It was like those clich wuxia novel and the only difference would be its setting which was in modern world instead of a cultivation world.

It was not the best novel I had read but I personally liked it very much. I don't know why but I just can't stop reading it. 

But this novel is going to be discontinued by its author. I don't know why but the author has decided to discontinued the novel but I was sad when I heard that it was going to be discontinued as I personally liked the novel very much.

I scrolled through the latest chapter and decided to write a comment.

There were already some dozen comments on it.

[Why you had to drop this novel author?]

[I was waiting to read the new chapter everyday. Sad to know that you are discontinuing it]

[Will you release a sequel or a remake?]

[Hope you come back soon!]

[I wish you didn't discontinued the novel]

Those were some comments written by the readers. Although it wasn't like that the novel was in top stops in the rankings but it had its own popularity and there were many people who liked to read this novel.

I started writing my own comment. I had been writing a comment for every chapter and this would be my last comment for this novel.

I wrote and deleted it several times as I wanted to write a perfect final comment.

[It was a really good read and I really enjoyed it. I don't know why you have decided to discontinued this novel but you must have your own reasons. I just wanted to say that I love your novel and hope to see you writing more great novels]

I wanted to write more but I couldn't find words to write, so I just decided to post it as it was.

Anyway those were my sincere words. I have reading this novel for 2 years and I have enjoyed every moment of it.

I have found this novel when I was casually browsing through the website and it has really intrigued me.

As I was going to close the website, I noticed that I had received a notification that a 'message has arrived'.

I clicked on it and a message appeared.

—GX07 : Thank you for your comment. I really appreciate it.

—Me : Are you the author?

No matter how much I tried to remember but the only person I know who has that username is the author of [The Immortal Cultivator]. So, I suspected it was him.

It was a slight unusual username to have, so I clearly remember it.

—GX07 : Yes,  I am the author of the [The Immortal Cultivator]. Thank you for your comments till now.

It was really the author. I excitedly started typing my keyboard as it was my first time talking with a author.

—Me : No, no it was your novel that was good. I really enjoyed it.

—GX07 : Thank you for reading it till now. By the way, I want you to do something for me.

—Me : You want me to do something for you? Tell me author. If I can do it, I will surely help you.

—GX07 : It isn't something major. I just want you to answer some casual questions for me. It's like a survey.

—Me : Questions! Sure I will answer them.

—GX07 : Thank you. Here's the link.

I noticed that he had sent me a link. As I was about to click on it, another message arrived.

—GX07 : By the way, if your answers passes the minimum requirements, I have a gift for you.

I was confused by that message. Passing! Minimum requirements! Will I also be graded for my answers?

I didn't think much of it as my eyes went on the gift part. I don't know what type of gift the author is talking about but I was looking forward to it.

It's been so long since I had received a gift from someone.

Anyone will like it when they received gifts. He also likes when someone give him a gift.

He clicked on the link and some questions appeared. There are five questions and they have some space to write answers for them. 

Q. What do you think is a good novel?

A.  A good novel is a novel in which the reader can visualize the scenes and the characters. It should have a good plot and there should be interesting storylines to make the readers engrossed.

He didn't know how to write a proper answer for that question and just wrote what he think. He wasn't a author, so he can only write his answer as a reader.

He didn't waste time thinking about it and skipped to the next question.

Q. What do you think is a good main character?

A. A good main character is a character which the reader can relate with. If the reader and the main character didn't relate with each other, then the reader wouldn't like to read the novel.

Again, he wrote what he thought would be the answer and moved to the next question.

Q. Do you think that the MC having multiple girls make sense when the story is in the modern world?

A. No, I didn't think that the MC having multiple girls make sense especially in a modern world. It literally breaks the common sense of the world. I can approve the MC having multiple girls if it is a fantasy world but in a modern world where the society is monogamous, it didn't make sense.

For him, it was a tricky question. At first, when he had started reading novels, he loved novels with the main character having multiple girls but as he started reading more novels, he found out that it didn't make sense for the main character to have multiple girls. Most of the time it only brings trouble for the main character and many authors only decide to go with a harem because they wanted to show the masculine side of the main character but it only helps in ruining the love side of the novel. He had seen many novels getting ruined because of the harem.

Those were only his personal thoughts of the harem. It wasn't like he hates that genre but he only likes it when it makes sense for the main character to have a harem. He didn't like protagonist who were dense and didn't know that the girls around him had already fallen in love with him. 

Well, moving on the next question.

Q. What will you do if you have the chance to enter the novel you like? Will you like to enter it or not?

It was more like a Yes/No question unlike the previous ones and there were two options, Yes or No to choose. Honestly, it was a rather easy question to answer especially for a reader. I mean, which reader didn't want to get transported in a novel of his liking.

I immediately clicked on the Yes option and moved on the next and the last question.

Q. Imagine if you got a chance to know the ending of a novel you liked which was discontinued or never finished. Will you like to know the ending or not? State your reasons?

The last question was a interesting one. I started thinking what will I do if I really found myself in that kind of situation. 

The question reminded me of the [The Immortal Cultivator] which was discontinued today. I wonder if I will be able to know its ending someday.

I decided to write my answer after some time.

A. If I really can read a discontinued novel which I like, then surely I would want to read it as anybody would want to know the ending of a novel they are reading and couldn't read because the novel was discontinued.

I finally wrote all the answers to the questions and clicked on the submit button. After he clicked on the submit button, the site asked for his e-mail to send him the results.

He filled his e-mail address and exited the site.

I wonder whether I will win or not. There's also the gift from the author if I passed the minimum requirements. I wonder what gift he will give me if I really passed.

Well, he didn't mind even if the author didn't give him a gift. He had only agreed to help the author answer the question because his novel was a fun read and it was free, means he was able to read the novel without any cost.

That's why he had decided to help the author, it was not for the gift.

Well, it wouldn't hurt if he really give me a gift. But I will only receive the gift if I passed the minimum requirements after all.

I was thinking naively back then, I didn't know that the Q/A session will change my whole life upside down.

A ordinary guy founds himself in a weird situation.

He was in novel, a story that he read for 2 years.

He had become a character with no destiny, a Mob.

In this world of Cultivators, Warriors and Mages. How can he a Mob become someone great.

Let's see, how he a Mob can change the story completely.

Title: Sleep Counter
Description:
On a night where Michael was fighting his usual sleepiness while complaining to himself 'Fuck I still want to read more why do I have to sleep.' Michael then forced himself to stay awake and read a chapter more but his sleepiness made the chapter seem boring and dull so he gave up while crying in his heart obviously.
 
Right before he sleep he said to himself 'just a chapter more' but as he didn't notice it another day passed and Michael have read the novel without any sleepiness.
 
ONE-SHOT
Damn Korean novel is really interesting, well to me it's fresher than Chinese novel or Japanese novel that I am tired reading off, but of course their anime and manga is still the best.
 
(Seriously, the first novel I read Is a Japanese one since I want to know the story faster than the manga so I already read hundreds of Japanese novel that I am bored of it, the same is true as I read numerous Chinese novel in Qindian when I got addicted to novel but before Qindian I read novel in Royal Road I even posted an unfinished novel there)
 
Michael thought while going trough a chapter of a novel created by an author name Toy Car, Michael who was bored was looked for more novel when he clicked one of his favourite novel EEC and it's author and he began to read the author's other work and he was enchanted that he read until 140 chapter in 10 hours but now his sleepiness is overwhelming and he can't read anymore he sometimes even doze into a short nap, Michael cried In his heart before brushing his teeth while complaining.
 
"Why do I have to sleep now, I mean I know the answer biologically but still it's so frustrating when I want to read a novel all at once I can't because I have to sleep and when I have a great dream it ended midway because I woke up, I fucking have those halfway excitement." Michael want to grumble more but he can feel that his body is getting heavier because he is a little sleep deprived.
 
(This is a novel that I made to vent my personal feeling, hell generally all the novel I made have that in mind."
 
Michael then entered his room glancing at his phone that is charging, "Alright just one more." Since he was about to read a chapter Michael didn't took of the charger.
 
Michael then procced to read the next chapter, since he is sleepy, he won't need an alarm to remind him of time right, so Michael sat down and began to rad the novels, clicking next chapter and next chapter without noticing hours passed.
 
(Heh! Did you all thought that the MC is going to be electrocuted so he will gain a system ,superpower or something too bad it's not the way, Disappointed ?.)
 
As he is often immersed in his novel word for hours his mother didn't call out Michael to eat breakfast and if he really is hungry he will come out on his own. Hours more passed and it's finally night again. Once again Michael's mother is not worried since he did have numerous snack in his room that could fill his stomach, in fact it happened twice or more before.
 
(Of course, my IRL mom would drag me out to bath and eat her cooking.)
 
Finally, as the day turn into night Michael groaned in pleasure and satisfaction while his bones is making popping noise from his stretching. "Ah… it is indeed a good novel as expected from the creator of Everyone Else is a Returnee, I guess I will read the other novel….." Michael paused his last sentence because he saw the time on his phone.
 
(What I am planning to do, as I am writing this I am reading the Infinite Competitive Dungeon Society at 120s chapter and perhaps when I post this one I would have finished the novel and is reading Toy Car other work) 
 
"What's happening did time stop. "but of course, a second later he got his answer. Michael looked at the calendar in his phone and saw that a day have passed.
 
He went out from his room and confirmed it with his mom, Michael then felt his stomach rumbling so he ate his dinner while thinking about this issue, then he finally come into a conclusion "Did the legend finally work!" Michael said in surprise.
 
There is a legend in internet and manga that he read, the legend stated, if you are really sleepy and managed to withstand it for the next 24 hours you will feel livelier and energic. 
 
Of course he had tried it before but the only feeling he got was lethargic, tiredness, dullness, and sleepiness.  
 
Michael didn't spend a long time to think about it more carefully, he took a bath and began to read the other novel that stated it only have 53 chapters and an epilogue, since it was only 53 chapter he should be able to finish it fast right, NO! he can't! he was cheated it was actually 300 more chapters that is said to be part of the 53 chapters but in fact the 300 have the length of ordinary chapter.
 
(If you really looked for it, you would have guessed the novel right just search it from Toy Car works.)
 
As usual with his passionate for novels he didn't notice another day have passed but this time the hunger combined from only eating once yester day plus not eating breakfast and lunch from Michael's concentration.
 
When Michael have realized it, it was already afternoon and he didn't felt any sleepiness or tiredness from his eyes from continues novel reading in his phone, he only felt the hunger. So, Michael went to eat his dinner early.
 
Experiencing this bliss Michael informed his mother that even if he didn't got out from his room don't drag him out, his mother then eyed him and said "Are you going to finish that more than a thousand chapter novel in one go?"
 
( I always like to finish it in one go but sleep and life always hindered me)
 
Hearing this Michael remembered that time.
 
"Mom, I will finish it in one go, although this Chinese novel is full of filler it's filler is not as long as Naruto's or One Piece right so I will finish it!" Michael said determinedly.
 
"Ah…go, go do whatever you want it's better for you to experience the consequences first so you will listen to me since I already warned you don't blame me." Mom said before shooing Michael.
 
"Mom, you are the best!" Michael ran to his room but after two day and a night he fell asleep with his face smashing his phone.
 
(Actually happened once so I thought that I would be using this method to fell asleep more satisfying since I fell asleep while reading a novel but it was to painful to withstand the sleepiness so I abandoned the idea)
 
Michael then excitedly ran to his room, to refreshes himself Michael took a bath and took out his headphone before listening to Anime'a OP and ED that he liked while laying on the bed while closing his eyes so that he could enjoy it more but only after a minute a snore could be heard.
 
( In IRL I don't snore my brother does it.)
 
After hours of activation the wireless headphone turned off after a loud warning, 8 hours passed and Michael is still asleep, as he is asleep with every beat of his heart his muscle twitched and it seem to pull his body to form something, another 8 hours passed and just like she promised Michael's mom didn't even enter the room after the morning come, and the muscle twitch succeed making Michael fell into a fetal position and the last 8 hours passed, Michael's body was automatically breaking down the fats to supply himself and his muscle was growing as his muscle was always twitching as if he was excessing, as the result Michael will be energic and won't felt hungry as his Stomach Acid wasn't produced any further when he is asleep but the effect won't be visible as he is only asleep for a 'short' amount of time and as If there Is some kind of alarm  Michael slowly opened his eyes and smiled.
 
(Yeah… real 'short' isn't it.)
 
"Ahh… what a good dream, rarely I got a complete one and a good end one, what's even rarer is that I remembered all of it." Michael said while getting up and stretching his body for a little, but the morning wood on his lower body made it a little hard to do, seeing this Michael chuckles. 
 
Michael was chuckling because the dream was about him becoming a hero and rescuing the princess, the dream ended with him rescuing the princess before marrying her and fucking her minds out.
 
The princess was his crush in middle high school, the companion was the beautiful girls in his class that he wasn't sure he liked or not and the enemy is of course the jerks in his school.
 
Remembering the dream and seeing the morning wood, Michael grabbed his phone to do an alchemy, turning an hard wood into an elastic rubber or perhaps turning back the elastic rubber to hard wood again before transforming it back with some white liquid as the leftover material.
 
(If you are men you all should know what the 'alchemy process' is right.)
 
But then he froze because the day he saw on the day on his phone. Michael's hard wood was usefully transformed into an elastic rubber without the 'alchemy' process, the leftover material, white liquid was not seen anywhere, what a shock, what method is this? Well it is a method know as shock.
 
(Did it form a pun?)
 
Michael then confirmed the date with his mother who had a face saying 'it goes just as I expected' but Michael ignored it. As it was holiday, he can do whatever he want since there will be many weeks before he went back to school.
 
Since i did have that many times, why don't I experimented to figure out the weird thing that is happening on me. Michael thought.
 
A month passed.
 
In this one month it could be said his experiment was very successful. Michael found out the limitation and advantage he got so suddenly.
 
Firstly and the most important point is that he can stay awake as long as he want; Secondly, he can fall asleep whenever, wherever he want just by staying still and closing his eyes for a 5 minutes max.
Thirdly, he must sleep and can only sleep 8 hours a day, are you saying this go against the first statement, well…no, Michael could accumulate the Sleep Counter he called, with every day he didn't sleep it will add 8 hours more sleep to the next one and it's accumulative so if Michael didn't sleep for a week so when he closed his eyes he definitely will sleep, 7x8 hours=56 hours.
 
Fourthly, in his sleep he will consume his fat to maintain and support his body activity also he will always end up in fetal position and in his sleep his muscle will develop too, he found this out because his slightly protruding stomach became flat and packed with six pack, even his hard wood got longer and bigger. 
 
(Pun again?, in my novel the MC's penis will always be on the large side even if it's originally not)
 
Fifthly, the dream he had will always be complete even if he only sleeps for 8 hours; Sixthly and the last one, he didn't know why this happen.
 
Satisfied with his research Michael spend his days using this ability to read novel, manga, and watch anime, movies, film series at one go along with increasing his body fitness
 
Thus Michael who felt satisfied, felt that he didn't need to find out the truth of his power, where it come from, or something similar, with every sleep his body grew stronger but his body always maintain the slim but muscular look even though he became stronger. 
 
And so because he became tall, as he was already good looking, he became handsome combined with his muscular body, and every since he got this Sleep Counter he found out his mind is unusually clear making his originally already smart but easy to distract mind to become focused so he always got good score as long as he paid attention in the class without reviewing it. Combining all of this, he found a pretty and kind girlfriend with the same hobby as he is reading novel and making one, but unlike him, her novel is popular.
 
Time goes, they got married and Michael lived off his wife but his wife accepted that since  the two of them doesn't have a real job just making novels, just like an 'usual' couple they discuss novel they read, recommended novels to each other, fight over their favorite novel and character.

Stories that ended in One Shot

Author: Yang Chen（314）

When writing your webnovel, what "surface appearance" means is the packaging and appearance of your novel.

In our daily lives, we're well aware of the importance of packaging in influencing how well a product sells. Oftentimes, the packaging is even more important than the product itself. Yet, many authors tend to neglect their work on the packaging of their webnovel. They believe that this is the responsibility of the website staff, and that only the website staff can help design and beautiful their novel's page.

What authors don't realize is that no matter what website you post your novel at, you as an author can modify quite a lot about your novel's appearance. These factors are quite influential in the success or failure of your novel. Since improving your novel's surface appearance is vastly easier than improving the content of your novel, it could be said that this is especially important as well as efficient.

As for the surface appearance of your novel, it can be categorized into the seven types below.

1. Your novel's title

In your packaging, one of the most important elements is your novel's title. For any novel, in most normal circumstances, the reader will find out your novel's title before any other information about it. The title is the most important factor in whether a reader chooses to click on it and read your synopsis or not. It also helps the readers to understand the most important elements of your novel. And so, there's no need for me to speak any further about the importance of your novel's title.

In that case, what type of a novel title is a good one? I believe that a good novel title should accomplish the following points.

（1） Simple

Simple here refers to using easy to understand words that even elementary school students can recognize, rather than using some highly esoteric or difficult words that few people can read in order to sound fancy.

（2） Only English words in the title

Don't use a title with words from other languages. Nor should you have numbers, punctuation, or individual letters in your novel's title. This will make your novel title look more professional as well as make it easier for readers to search for your novel.

（3） Easy to read and remember

Perhaps "easy to remember" will make some authors confused, but actually, it's connected to being easy to read. A good novel title should flow quite well when people try reading it out loud. That's why you shouldn't use words that are difficult to pronounce. Otherwise, if readers can't even remember the title of your novel, how are they possibly supposed to remember your story?

（4） Not too long

This is also an issue about readability. If your novel's title is overly long, it's not easy for readers to search for it or remember the name. Normally speaking, the average book's title has around two to six words in it.

About the length of your novel's title, there's something else that needs to be noted. Amongst authors, there's a saying that the shorter your novel's title is, the better, because this helps your novel to be ranked farther in the front. In a way, this is correct, because many websites often put the novels with the shorter titles first when giving recommended reads on the front page, so the titles that are shorter will naturally be at the forefront. However, this alone shouldn't make us conclude that a shorter title is always better.

The influence of a novel's title has so many factors involved, and being on the recommended list is only a tiny portion. If you can have a better position on the recommended list, of course, that's a good thing, but if you choose a shorter title just for this, then you'll definitely lose more than you gain. Besides, even if you have a really short novel title, can you guarantee that there are other recommended novels out there that don't have equally short names? What if you're in the middle? Honestly speaking, there's no real difference in being at the left or in the middle of the recommended novels section.

（5） Not esoteric

When choosing your novel's title, it should be just like writing your novel. You should consider your general audience. And since you're writing a webnovel, your general audience would obviously prefer to read words in an easy to understand manner. If your novel title is overly esoteric or poetic, or sounds too philosophical, then your novel's popularity will be greatly affected. The majority of readers probably won't even click on your novel to read the synopsis.

（6） Appropriate bandwagoning
From a certain standpoint, bandwagoning can be advantageous. For example, since "Library of Heaven's Path" is a highly popular novel, perhaps you could write a book titled "Library of Hell's Path," which will naturally bring your novel some attention.

However, it's obvious that this actually isn't so much of a good thing for either the readers or the website, so it's quite easy for your novel to become suppressed if you bandwagon too much. For instance, if you really do call your novel "Library of Hell's Path," then it'll be quite difficult for you to receive a recommendation on the front page because it'll be too similar to the popular "Library of Heaven's Path." Not only that, there are also disadvantages for the author, because using such a copycat name will make some readers displeased as well, making it harder to attract some readers.

And so, that's why newcomer authors should only bandwagon appropriately and observe what type of novel titles are the most popular. Then, you should create your own original title that's similar in spirit but not in style.

（7） Express the uniqueness of your novel

A good novel title should express the uniqueness of your novel. The best-case scenario would be that your title expresses the main wish-fulfillment point of your novel. For example, a novel named "Returning to the Yuan Dynasty" can already tell you the two major information points that this novel is about returning to the past and historical fiction. Or, the famous franchise "Spiderman" tells you simply from the title that the story is about someone with spider-based abilities as well as being a superhero story.

In conclusion, when naming your novel, a good method would be to organize your novel's keywords and special vocabulary as well as all the most interesting factors in your novel, then categorize and modify them while seeing which point or points would be the best to put in your novel's name. Finally, come up with an excellent novel title based on the above seven points.


2. Choosing your genre to categorize your novel as

After choosing your novel's title, you should choose the specific genre your novel belongs to. Actually, perhaps it's not quite appropriate to use the word "choose" here, because the genre is really decided by the content of your story, not what you as an author choose.

About choosing your genre, the most important, and basically the only rule there is, is to "never do false advertising." That's because the end result of false advertising will be bad for everyone.

For example, even though you're clearly writing a novel about mystical abilities in a modern-day setting, you placed your novel into the alternate history genre. This way, readers that enjoy alternate history novels will happily start reading your novel but will leave disappointed, while readers that enjoy modern novels with mystical abilities won't even be able to find your novel by genre.

For most novels, it won't be difficult to classify its genre at all. However, there are some novels that have elements from multiple genre types. Perhaps your novel is both modern as well as xianxia, with science fiction and military added as well, and even fantasy. This doesn't mean that your story is bad, however, this type of story will often confuse the author. Just what overall genre should the author classify such a story under?

First of all, what you should consider is the matter of which story elements are truly the most important. This is the foundational issue at hand.

However, if you as an author really feel like all the elements are equally important, then you'll just have to make a decision and choose one genre on your own. There are two factors you should consider here. First is that popular genres will have more readers, and the second is that less popular genres will have fewer novels and thus less competition.

These two factors are a matter of not being able to have your cake and eat it too. For newcomer authors, you can choose a genre based on your own confidence in your novel's ability. But normally speaking, it's more recommended to choose a less popular genre to categorize your novel as.

All of the same could be said for your story's synopsis as well. Make sure that your story's synopsis matches the genre that it's supposed to be under.

(Translated by Diodra)

Honestly, making some hype was not a shameful matter, it was just getting some exposures.

This kind of exposure was cheap and very efficient. In the Earth, many celebrities, some writers, or people who had little fame would create many sensations online to increase their fame.

If there were some TV shows or movies that were coming out, all of their crews would actively make some postings or promoting it on forums, Weibo, and all online media that many people used.

In this age, even good stuff didn't necessarily be in good places. It needed more publications and advertising to ensure their success and profit.

Xia Ping was also someone who had experienced the world. In his past life, he had seen a lot of such things. If he wanted to become popular, half depended on quality, the other half depended on the management!

On Yanhuang Star, the netizens seemed quite innocent. They had not experienced such crazy advertising as in his past life. They just honestly posted something and started discussing each other.

In this case, he estimated so long he casually made some speculations and hypes, he should be able to become popular easily and got some fame to his novel.

Thinking up to here, Xia Ping immediately took action. He would make some hypes on the largest forum on Yanhuang Star, The Skyhawk Forum. But before that, he needed to make a dummy account.

Using this dummy account, he wrote a post [Teacher Bai Rong, This is the best erotic novel I have read in recent years. Those predecessors were all trash.]

This post was to make some praises from different angles such as the plots, creativity, story's depth, its descriptions, and so on. In short, this story was the best of its kinds, you were going to regret it if you didn't read it. It was such exaggerated flattery that even made Xia Ping blushed a little.

Bu this was only the start. Then he made several dummy accounts to respond to the post.

"Agree with you, although this novel not necessarily the best in the world, currently there is no better one. This is a masterpiece of the erotic novel, an anomaly from all those trash works. I am very optimistic it will be the most popular erotic novel this year. A master of the erotic novel has risen." A dummy account boasted.

"Bullshit, can't you die if you were no boasting so much? A master? Screw yourself! I have read this novel, it's the same with those trashes. Even primary school students can write a better novel!" A dummy account mocked the post before. After all, a sensation couldn't sing the same tune, otherwise, it was easy for people to turn suspicious. It should have both flattery and critics.

"The person above is right. When I see it, it turned out to be written by some dog from Yangzhou Region. What kind of work do you think that could be born from that underdeveloped area in Yanhuang Star? It was just a pile of rubbish. I tell you, people from Yangzhou Region have no culture at all, they were one hundred years behind my Jizhou Region." another dummy was very sinister, it provoked dissension of other regions.

Because of the unification, Yanhuang Star was divided into nine great regions. They were Jizhou Region, Weizhou Region, Qingzhou Region, Xuzhou Region, Yangzhou Region, Jingzhou Region, Yuzhou Region, Yizhou Region, and Yongzhou Region.

There were gaps between their developments, so many contradictions happening between regions. They disliked each other. Occasionally, there were several battles of words online between people of different regions. 

"Hey, you dog of Jizhou, don't think it was great to have many famous people came from your region. They are old men, while none of your younger ones could keep up. You have declined, only proud of your past glories. Just this novel alone can make bury you for one hundred years." a dummy countered, making him looked like someone from Yangzhou Region.

"Good! I have looked at those from Jizhou that were not pleasing to the eyes. That is just a place for retirement, what is so good about it!" an innocent bystander replied, "Of course, as a person from Qingzhou Region I am very fair speaking about this."

"The place for retirement your sister! Even a starving camel is still bigger than a horse! No matter the condition of my Jizhou, it was not comparable to your garbage region. You, Qingzhou Region's people are not a good bird, still acting like impartial people. Who knows how many scammers were arrested from your region!" a person from Jizhou was annoyed, and immediately fought back.

Because it was evening when people used the internet the most, this battle of words immediately became hot on the Sky Hawk Forum and making countless people spectated the battle.

In just one hour, the post had been read at least 3.6 million people and the replies reached almost nine hundred thousand, it was almost impossible to read them all together.

People from different regions crossed-words against each other. Some people even boasting they would pay some people to hit others. The situation escalated quickly.

The moderators from the Sky Hawk forum were alarmed and immediately came calming the situation.

Xia Ping was speechless seeing all of this. He had not expected these people were so stupid and easily provoked. The matters were out of his anticipation.

But, such advanced provoking skills from Earth suddenly used to noobs from Yanhuang Star and produced this kind of effect was completely understandable.

However, that didn't mean that he would stop. To publicize something, one needed countless people to participate. This was only the beginning while the end was still far.

Going to a few rather disreputable forums, he once again created several troll accounts and started posting. The first one read: [COMRADES, OUR LUCK HAS ARRIVED! It is the erotic web novel Teacher Bai Rong!]

"This web novel is too good! Before even if I used viagra, I still couldn't get it up, but after reading this web novel, I feel as if I'm invincible. Now, my wife no longer beats me, instead, she looks at me with a gaze of reverence. I feel as if this web novel has changed my life. Practically a second coming of youth! This web novel is simply a divine medicine! Even better than viagra!" a troll account commented.

"Everybody, he's telling the truth. I also feel the same as him. Originally I also didn't believe it, but after my big brother introduced it to me and I started doubtfully reading it, I found that it worked. Even better than those medicines," another troll account echoed.

"I know right? Besides, using the money for treatment still costs money, but reading this web novel doesn't cost that much. So why not give it a try? Who knows, it just might work," a third troll account persuaded sinisterly.

"Really? It's that good? I'll also give it a try then."

"Thank you, brother. If it's as good as you say it is, then you'll have saved our life."

"Same! Ever since I got that problem, I'm looked at in scorn everywhere I go. By my superior, by my wife, even by those night dancers when I go out to party. It's utter hell! I feel as if I've got nothing left!"

A group of unknowing bystanders expressed their thanks.

Xia Ping's troll account immediately responded, "There's no need to be so polite. As a person, what I enjoy the most is helping others, so there's no there's need to thank me."

“Shameless Xia Ping, not only did you steal my martial arts manual and medicinal pills, you even took my fiancée! We’re not finished!”

“He’s the embarrassment of the Martial Way and a parasite of the human race. A complete scumbag.”

“There’s nothing that he won’t do. Not only would he not help an old person cross the road, but he would also steal the lollipop of a three-year-old.”

“He causes problems everywhere. All of the geniuses of those big families have been beaten up by him before. Now, he’s no longer tolerated by either humans or gods!”

Countless martial arts experts of Yanhuang Star hated Xia Ping down to the very bone. They were just itching to completely crush him into pieces.

As for Xia Ping? Facing the hatred of so many people, he just calmly pulled up the interface of the “Grand Hatred System” and looked at all the wonderful things there. He rubbed his chin, “I’ve already saved up so many Hatred Points. What should I exchange for now? Saint-grade medicinal pills? Or perhaps that Primordial Pill? The peerless martial art skill, Tathagata Palm also seems pretty good too. But then there’s that divine weapon, the Cosmic Cauldron. It is too difficult to choose!”

UP master: A newcomer's new online series with high CG sci-fi. It is to be uploaded with the novel at the same time.
It was really a CG series!!
This was Ding Yang's first time seeing such a thing.
He was also stunned when he saw the sentence about the novel.
Novel?
Uploaded with the novel at the same time?
What bull!
The speed of the novel was one thing, but CG episodes required a long time to be created, how could they be synchronized?
Even though this science fiction show had come out, Ding Yang still hugged his knees in disbelief as he searched for this novel.
He enjoyed shows but not novels. He always felt that novels were not as immersive.
But this had broken all precedence.
The search results were changed around because the title of Jun Ci's novel had already been changed by Brother Dog.
But the tyrannical pen name of Emperor.
Ding Yang was able to recognize it.
He entered the novel with his skepticism and saw that it was already collecting money.
The first 100,000 words were free to read.
Ding Yang held a 'try it first' attitude and entered the novel.
It was 12 midnight.
Ding Yang read rather slowly, and he only finished reading the free chapters at 12 noon.
When he reached the pay-to-read chapters, it was as though he a bucket of cold water had been poured on his head.
It was not because he had to pay to continue reading, but the fact that the pay-to-read only started when it got exciting. It was too unbearable.
He suddenly regained his senses; this novel is rather interesting!
It was rare for him to find it interesting, and therefore he felt the need to continue.
He initially thought of looking for a pirated free-to-read version, but upon thinking about it, the UP master's decision to make the series meant that they would have invested financial resources and physical labor into it. A novel did not cost much, and supporting it by paying to read was nothing.
With that, Ding Yang opened up Luo Du literary site's VIP page and recharged it with Luo coins (currency to read Luo Du's novels) and purchased the book.
It was not until 1 AM, late in the night, did he finish reading the latest chapter.
Ding Yang felt that it was at a cliffhanger, and the need to continue was unbearable.
Who would have thought that there would be a day a novel could make him have such a feeling.
The itch clawed at Ding Yang's heart. It seemed the author had not left any message regarding the novel.
He immediately felt that it was inconceivable. By the time he reacted, he realized that he had awarded the novel 10,000 Luo coins (100 actual Chinese dollars), left a message: Very good, very good, D website's videos are catching up, the author is truly 6666666 [1]! Wasn't it said that the videos would be updated at the same time as the novel? I hope the author will start uploading them!
As an otaku living in a middle-class family, 100 dollars was nothing to Ding Yang.
He felt that it was worth it to support the author.
After completing this, he did not go to sleep in satisfaction, but instead opened his social circle of friends and shared the video.
When Jun Ci woke up, Gu Lu's voice contained a rarely heard excitement: "Your Highness, take a look at D website. Our viewership is not too bad, there were many people who actively promoted your videos, and the show has been played more than 3000 times. The number of comments are at a 3:1 frequency! Your novel is being supported as well, and as of last night, you've earned 2129 dollars worth of author's remuneration!"
Jun Ci was brushing his teeth when he heard the news and was shocked. "Where did that money come from?"
It was so fast.
"Of course, there is no need to discuss your highness' literacy. With Gu Lu's videography, it will definitely be welcomed by everyone!"

[1]: Chinese slang to mean 'awesome'


(A refreshing novel about rebirth and disguise, with the male lead Jiang Yi and female lead Jun Ci)
The popular and magnificent ‘crown prince’ was reborn into a disfigured little pathetic girl whom everyone loathes.
The Crown Prince expressed that this all didn’t matter!
The body’s original appearance was actually a face that everyone, men and women, old and young, would go crazy for.
“He” was the perfect lover in the hearts of countless men and women.
Anyone would dream of marrying her!
But one day, the prince charming became a goddess?
Male fans: How explosive!
Jiang Yi: I’m not going to accept this, I am her husband!
Jun Ci smirked. So what exactly are you not accepting?

It exploded!

Zhang Ye's blog exploded with views!

"Heavens!"

"This passage is godly!"

"It gave me goose bumps all over!"

"What a great 'I want for the sky to not cover my eyes'!"

"Teacher Zhang is still Teacher Zhang! He's still as good as ever! He just doesn't disappoint!"

"I was wrong! I doubted the quality of this novel when it was first released and even said that this was not up to Teacher Zhang Ye's usual standards, but I finally f**king understand this novel! This Legend of Wukong is definitely a masterpiece! Teacher Zhang Ye is trying to send a message through his novel! He's writing from his experiences from the past few days and channeling in his anger and considerations of everything that has happened. He is letting everyone know by pouring all of his heartfelt emotion into this novel for everyone to see!"

"This passage is a real classic!"

"'I want for all those Buddhas to vanish from my life'? Zhang Ye is really daring to write his heartfelt thoughts!"

"Teacher Zhang has always spoken through his work! This time is no exception either! The only difference is that he has always used poems to scold others, but this time he changed the medium to a novel."

"Hahahaha! I dare not claim that Teacher Zhang Ye's literary level is the top in this country, but his face-smacking level has to be the top! He is f**king using the characters to represent the crosstalk world and related people and scolding them in it! I think this is too awesome! This style of writing is so godly!"

"Teacher Zhang is invincible!"

"It's so well written that it makes my blood boil!"

"Reading Zhang Ye's novel just makes me feel so fulfilled!"

"It's so good that I'm crying! This is what you call a f**king novel!"

"How I wish those crosstalk people can see this! @TangDazhang @XuWenxiang @CrosstalkAssociation @FolkArtsAssociation! You people are really good at accusing Zhang Ye for being vulgar and not understanding what art is, but now Teacher Zhang Ye has thrown out a new work and its artistic levels are good enough to fling you a hundred streets away! A person who is able to come up with such a good novel doesn't know what art is? Teacher Zhang does not perform crosstalk according to your rules because he doesn't want to associate with you lot! But you guys still call him out so much that it makes it seem like you're addicted to calling him out just for the sole purpose of calling him out! You bunch of people are precisely the ugly and evil deities in Legend of Wukong!"

"Muahaha! This novel is so well written to fit the occasion! It's completely portrays the current situation that Teacher Zhang is in now! ‘I want for the sky to not cover my eyes’? Domination! Such domination!"

"Teacher Zhang! I do not know if the living beings understand you, but we do! We completely understand!"

"Why is this novel getting such low click rates? Such an awesome novel. Why isn't anyone reading it?"

"It's because the media outlets aren't helping Teacher Zhang promote it! He's still banned, so most people do not know that Zhang Ye has a new work released!"

"Damn! How hateful!"

"After reading Legend of Wukong! I find them even more terrible now! I did not know how much pressure Teacher Zhang Ye had to bear with in the past, but after reading this novel, I think I finally understand! I have nothing to say! Except that I am supporting Zhang Ye unconditionally! They won't help to promote? They want to ban Teacher Zhang? Let's do it! We fans will help promote him instead!"

"Right!"

"Let's do it!"

"Well said! Count me in!"

There were already a lot of people who liked the Legend of Wukong novel, but with this, they liked it even more now! The people who did not understand the meaning, or those who did not really like it at first, now changed their views about it and were fighting to give their reviews about it. Some people even started to help Zhang Ye promote the novel on Weibo and other forums to allow more exposure for Zhang Ye's new work! 

On Weibo: "Zhang Ye released a new novel! Come and see!"

On Tieba: "Zhang Ye's new novel Legend of Wukong. Link below!"

On a forum: "Extra, extra! Zhang Ye has written a new novel after half a year's hiatus from writing! The godlike Teacher Zhang Ye! And the godlike Legend of Wukong! Everything can be seen on Zhang Ye's blog! Go and check it out! If you don't like it, feel free to beat me up!"

Everyone's promotion seemed to work as a large influx of new readers surged in. Of course, not all of the people who read the novel liked it. Some people felt it was a little too obscure, or that the genre did not fit their taste in novels, so they left after just reading a little, but a larger number of people stayed to finish reading all six chapters. They were all left amazed, like those before them, especially with their thoughts lingering on the final sentences. Many of them were left with their blood boiling!

The click rate was increasing!

100,000!

200,000!

300,000!

......

At the Wu residence.

Upstairs in the villa, in the study room.

Zhang Ye had finished writing the sixth chapter and did not plan on writing anymore for today. First, this was because he had written to the most suitable chapter of his intentions and it would be good to stop here. Second, he did not have the energy to continue writing any further. He had typed out too many characters in these past few hours and was totally drained. He felt dizzy as the concentration sapped him more than anything physical would. This kind of tiredness did not affect him physically, but mentally, which made him feel much more uncomfortable.

He stretched his waist!

Gururu. His stomach rumbled. He was hungry.

Zhang Ye rubbed his belly, knowing that he had really exhausted himself this time, but he was at Wu Zeqing's house now and it would be awkward for him to go downstairs to look for food. He did not know how to cook either, and Old Wu's house probably did not have a large stockpile of instant noodles. If he were to go check the fridge, it would be as good as asking Old Wu to cook for him. It didn’t feel right, so Zhang Ye decided to just deal with it. He just drank a few more sips of water, hoping that it would help alleviate his hunger.

Dong, dong, dong.

Knocking came from the door behind him. "I'm coming in, OK?"

Zhang Ye quickly said, "Please come in, please come in."

Old Wu was really respectful towards him. This was her house after all and she held a higher position than him at work, yet she still knocked on the door courteously before coming in. Sigh, how good it would be to marry Old Wu!

When the door opened, a fragrant aroma of congee filled the room.

Wu Zeqing was holding a bowl of steaming hot congee, making her way slowly into the room. "Are you hungry?"

Zhang Ye was so touched that he immediately stood up to get it from her. "Aiyo, be careful. Don't scald yourself. I'll take it from here!"

"Sit down. Get something to put on the table so that I can place this down." Wu Zeqing did not allow him take the bowl. "It's very hot. Don't take it."

Zhang Ye immediately said, "My skin is rough and thick, so I'm not afraid of being scalded, but your hands are more delicate!"

Wu Zeqing laughed a little and placed the bowl of porridge on the table. "Big Sis is not that fragile. This was just prepared a short while ago, so eat it while it's still hot."

Zhang Ye did not know what to say. "How did you know I was hungry? My stomach growled a little just now, but I was a little embarrassed to go downstairs to look for food."

Wu Zeqing said, "You've written so much just now, so I guessed that you were probably getting hungry as well. I went to prepare the congee a while ago, so eat it first. Is the taste good?"

"Good!" Zhang Ye did not say too much. He knew that Old Wu was good to him and he would remember this. Their relationship hadn't been too normal to begin with. For instance, Old Wu's nephew, Wu Mo, had received Zhang Ye's help along with "Ode of Mulan," which Zhang Ye had written for her. There were also other incidents as well that Old Wu had helped him out with before. Not to mention the most noteworthy incident in which Zhang Ye helped her take photos and the case of sending the wrong message in the first place? You couldn't consider something like that a superior-subordinate relationship, could you? Of course not, but friends? It wasn't really so either, but looking back, their relationship wasn’t that of strangers either.

He ate the congee.

The first mouthful of it was enough to make him want more, "Ah? Century egg and pork congee? Aiyo, this is too delicious! Preparing this congee must have been a very troublesome task!"

Wu Zeqing said, "Just eat."

Zhang Ye said while he ate, "My novel...did you read it already?"

"Yes." She sat beside him and nodded.

Zhang Ye asked in anticipation, "What do you think of it?" He was very conscious of what Old Wu thought of it since the novel was mainly written because Old Wu said she wanted to read a new novel of his. If Wu Zeqing did not like it, then his all of effort would have been in vain. This was why he really looked forward to hearing Old Wu’s thoughts.

Wu Zeqing did not answer him, but just looked at him and asked, "This Legend of Wukong was really written on the spot?"

He said, "Yes."

Wu Zeqing said, "If I did not criticize you, then this novel would have never seen the light of day?"

Zhang Ye hesitated for a bit, thinking that it might have really been so, but coughed and said, "No, but it was thanks to you that my inspiration just came and I started writing without stopping like I was possessed." After a pause, he spoke, "Oh yes, you have not told me what you think of it yet? Do you think it's a good read?"

Wu Zeqing smiled and said, "It's more than that. Although this unconstrained style of writing is considered as online literature, the level it has reached already far exceeds traditional literature. Hur hur, looks like Big Sis has criticized you well and rightly. You are full of literary talent. If you don't show everyone what you’ve got, it would be such a pity. Do you know which line Big Sis liked the most?" She recited, "I want for all living beings to understand me."

When he heard that she liked it, he was naturally very happy. "It's good as long as you like it."

"There are many feelings in your heart." Wu Zeqing said, "If you just show everyone a little of it, the literary world will not be able to continue living in peace, even if it wanted to. Big Sis is looking forward to the development of the story in its later chapters."

Without another word, Zhang Ye said, "So. I will continue writing through the night!"

She waved her hand. "That's enough. Enjoy your congee and get some rest for tomorrow."

Zhang Ye did not force the topic. "Sure, I will surely let you read it before you leave Beijing. I will definitely get it finished within three days!"

Wu Zeqing took the bowl of finished congee and held it in her hand. "OK, I will wait for it then." After saying that, she took the empty bowl and spoon and went downstairs with light footsteps.

He looked at his watch.

It was getting late.

Zhang Ye blinked and blinked, thinking that it should be time for him to go home. It was already past 11PM at night and it would be awkward for a man like him to stay over at a woman's place. But since Wu Zeqing did not say anything or made it seem like she wanted him to leave, Zhang Ye pretended he didn’t notice and just went along with it. He did not mention it and intended to stay over to see if anything would arise. If Old Wu asked him to leave just before she slept, then he would go. If Old Wu didn’t say a word, then Zhang Ye would just stay over, but...Hmm, he needed an excuse? He would just call it the fine-sounding reason of staying up all night to write his novel!

Suddenly, his cellphone rang!

Zhang Ye, who was having crooked thoughts, got a bit of a scare from this. A thief would always have a guilty conscience. He checked his cellphone to see who was calling and answered, "Old Yao, what's the matter?"

Yao Jiancai said, "Quickly publish the next chapter!"

"Ah? You're talking about Legend of Wukong?" Zhang Ye was a little stunned, but he understood after a moment of thinking. He said happily, "Even you’re reading my novel? This novel isn't meant for people your age."

Yao Jiancai said in a depressed voice, "I won't read that shitty novel of yours even if you gave it to me, but my Mimi likes it a lot and she's been begging me to ask you."

"My student wants to read it?" Zhang Ye asked. "I was still thinking why someone like you, who has no class, would read it at all? Ha, but I can't publish anymore. I've stopped writing for the day."

"What about your stockpile!"

"There's isn't any. I published whatever I've written."

"Don't give me that bullshit. Quick!"

"Old Yao, I really don't have anymore written for now. Why would I lie to you!"

......

Later, Zhang Ye's colleague also began calling him.

— Peking University's Chinese Department teacher Su Na.

"Teacher Su, you're still awake so late at night?"

"How could I sleep? Teacher Zhang, you're really great. I saw your blog post just before I went to bed, so I curiously had a glance and that was the start of the rabbit hole. I’ve stayed up throughout the night and finally finished reading all six chapters and was left wanting more. Please let me read the stockpile!"

"..."

"Quickly!"

"I really don't have a stockpile, Teacher Su."

"I don't believe you. We're colleagues, so if you won't let me read the stockpile today, then let's not keep in touch anymore."

"Hai, don't mind me, but you’ll have to wait for tomorrow. I will write more tomorrow. My hands are already breaking."

"At least tell me the plot."

"I can't reveal that."

"You… We're not friends anymore!"

"Heh, don't say that, don't say that!"

......

A few other friends called him as well!

They mentioned words like "treating a meal," "smashing windows," and other threats or benefits, which made Zhang Ye at a loss of whether to laugh or cry, but his mood was very good. All this meant that Legend of Wukong was a success and popular with readers.


Zhang Ye was originally a mundane college graduate with aspiring dreams to become a star, but unfortunately has below average looks and height. However one day, he woke up and suddenly found himself in a parallel world! 
It’s like the same world, but wait a minute…many brands, celebrities and even famous works from his world changed and are gone in this new world! Armed with the profound literary knowledge of his previous world and a heaven-defying Game Ring that gives him magical items, stats and skills, Zhang Ye embarks on a journey to pursue his life-long dream of becoming famous!
Follow Zhang Ye as he takes the new world by storm, one plagiarized piece at a time, to hilarious reactions!

if you haven't read the novels yet, then don't read this, it has some spoilers.

Hi, I'm jouyou the author of this novel, anyways I've been busy, i thought about publishing 1 chapter per 3 days or per week, but when i read criticisms like:
1. this novel is like any wuxia novel, repeating the same things as the other novels, bad grammar.
2. why the mc didn't kill his whole clan, why his father didn't kill the elders.
3. taking so much time to get the mc survive the situation.
4. why would you talk a lot about the mc just get to the point.
5. short chapters we need more per day.
6. why the mc acts like nothing had happen to him, like getting embarrassing over seeing the girl's face.
7. cliff hanging.

when i read all these i lost interest in continuing it, you'll say i don't accept criticisms, if i don't then i wouldn't bother replying on comments explaining all things, what gets me lose interest is some people critic on something i already explained dozens of time, read the answers of the criticisms above:

1. bro/sis i didn't even start talking about the world yet and i didn't focus on power level at the first chapters and yet you made a judgement about the whole novel, sigh.. , English is my 3rd language so its obviously i wont be that good at it, well at least its readable, right?.
2. like a person who cant use magic, his body is weak, just got his chakra doesn't have any ninjutsu nor did he train, how he is supposed to kill them, making him killing them with a 2 tomoe sharingan lol even madara couldn't do it at naruto, as for why didnt his father kill the elders, his position is already questionable, in a world where the power is all matters, 1st elder being a mid mage lord is rivaling the patriarch, so if the patriarch killed the 3 elders (1 mid mage lord + 2 low mage lords) the clan will suffer a huge blow to its power, so the patriarch will be treated as a traitor, plus the patriarch wouldn't do it he is selfish.
3. as i said at point 2, the mc is weak af, plus i had to talk about his past life and his current life, and make him build his personality, some novels says the mc's personality got changed because the society, but its not really that much if you read the story, i want the mc to flip his switch and mature from his experience.
4. without explaining his past experience and marco's experience, the story wouldn't develop, talking about him at the very beginning plus in that kind of situation he got to after his rebirth, it was good, its my opinion.
5. i'm a beginner i haven't write any novels or a short stories this novel was my first novel or story ever, after i dropped the novel , i didn't write anything.
6. as i said the gluttony eats/devour all the bad emotions that will make the mc lose focus, but it doesn't mean that the mc will not like get revenge or will not beat someone did something bad to him, its just he wont keep crying over all things, so yeah he is not depressed anymore because of the gluttony, he got embarrassed not because he looked at her face, but because he kept looking at her face for a long time in front of her father, after her father coughed he got embarrassed of it.
7. I'm a beginner, for me ending the chapter in an interesting situation is good, i love novels who ends chapters like this, which makes you want to read the other chapters, as long as the novel is continuing and its not the last chapter, so why not, if i continue this novel i will try to improve.

anyways guys i think i will continue on this novel, so what do you think, yes or no? depends on you guys, if you still interested on reading it or not, i hope you guys can help me improve, if i did a mistake at the story or i wrote a wrong word i hope you'll help me fixing it. 
Thank you.
JOUYOU.
