The ability and imagination to create a world with such detail is not an easy feat. Especially if the world has little to no plot holes that could lead the reader to feel isolated when it comes to specific information. Worldbuilding is a concept that takes a writer many works to master, but the way you tell your story gives me enough information to stay content with what I could know, shouldn't know, and don't know. It's hard for readers to grasp the concept of "I'm setting this up, so please just wait" because some writers give too much information and others too little, but you're quite the master when it comes to the notion. Something that I studied in great detail and took notes on, so thanks for the information. I made a post on the forums giving my opinion on the novel and felt bad when he had an interview stating that most of the hate for his book comes from that part of WebNovel. I wasn't trying to be disrespectful in the least. I set my expectations too high for someone who's writing for millions of people and not just me. I accept that now, and if you took any offense to what I said, I want to apologize. Whether it be your diction or worldbuilding, the quality of your book is up to your readers to decide by themselves. That doesn't mean that any of them are right or wrong in their assumptions about why they like or dislike the book. In fact, the only person who's to say if a book's standards are good or not is the author's. **If you do decide to read this, I just wanted to say thank you.** You're doing something that no one else but you can do at this point--Give aspiring writers the courage to write and bring potential readers to this platform for smaller writers like me to influence into reading my work. Without a powerhouse like yourself (along with other spectacular web novelists), the platform's WSA wouldn't have doubled in participants and given the opportunity for other content creators to pursue a passion that's bigger than themselves. I'm currently a junior currently studying for a degree in Information Systems to become a Data Scientist next year. Despite my love for data, if writing gave me the financial stability I need to pursue other hobbies and interests, I'd finish my schooling and work as a writer full-time, but that's just wishful thinking. That's why this contest is super important! If I were to win, then I'd take a year from school and travel to grow my experiences and be able to write an incredible novel based on my excursions; However, I don't win, I'd probably just let it remain a hobby which would probably dribble away due to work and my social life. *Life happens.* But just in case something like that does happen, I'm pretty sure there's someone in a position like mine and was in a position like yours who needs the inspiration to write, and you're giving it to them! So once again, tha
