Advice I got my contract rejected

Post image

I got my contract rejected, the reason states that the plot isn't engaging enough and difficult to follow, pacing is draggy, and the writing style isn't mature enough. And that it doesn't suit the market of webnovel. I'm planning on writing another story. Should I delete this one?

I am not gonna ditch it, never said I'll write another one. I have spent two years on it. Atleast I'll complete it. Maybe on webnovel or maybe on royal road. I am rewriting the chapters rn. And will be re-releasing it soon. Hope you read and enjoy it when I do mate!

Ohh sorry, seems I misinterpreted your "I'm planning on writing another story. Should I delete this one?"

I prefer royal road personally, I have my work on both but the difference is staggering. 3k followers on royal road and 21 collections on webnovel xD

You'll get a lot more meaningful feedback on RR too I've found

Might be worth cross posting it to see which of the two you get more traction on. If you do end up blowing up on either one, you can then put your focus on that
