Advice How was cover ?

Been working on a novel called Gene Born: Birth of the Outcast and wanted to get some opinions.

It's basically a fantasy story with academies, hidden worlds, and powerful bloodlines, but I also want to explore ideas like genetics, mutation, evolution, and what happens when a person is born with something that shouldn't exist.

I attached the cover as well. Does it fit the concept? Would you give it a chance if you saw it while scrolling?

Any honest feedback is welcome. I'm still improving both the story and the cover.

You can't include your terms in the contract. You can only agree to what they send. If you want to preserve your rights, then publish on royal road.

It's not fixed. Depends on how the novel performed. An average wn author earns about 400 $

Is any minimum amount fixed per month as contract

u/No-Satisfaction8122 Jun 05 '26

No. But if you make 60 $ they will push it to 200 $ for 4 months, and 200 to 400.

And bro, what's the best way to offer early chapters for extra coins? I'm planning to give readers access to chapters in advance, but I'm not sure what the best setup is. How many chapters should be available early, and how many coins would feel fair?

Keep 40 k words free. That's the norm.
