    Hi, I am a 23 y.o from India doing M.Com. My all time favourite pastime is to read a good Chinese novel with a strong and independant female protagonist ( mostly ancient China). Right now, due to the lock down, I have too much spare time at hand and wish to utilise it well and the only thing I want to do right now is to indulge in some chinese novels. Thus, I was thinking up of ways in which I could contribute in any way to the chinese novels community (non- monetory) but I am not aware how. So please give me some suggestions as to how I can overcome this dilemma.
    P.S: I am only proficient in English, Hindi, Urdu and can read Arabic but have very little understanding of it.

    Contribute by reading on the Translator's site with your ad blocker turned off. Leave a comment in the page to show how grateful you are, this will in turn make the translators happy and a happy translator means a more productive time spent on translating.

    MUST NOT: ask translator for faster update, this is a taboo question for all Translators

    I don't get your point. Supporting the official translators automatically support the authors by consequence.

    ... Or do you mean OP should go to a Chinese website and pay to read some Chinese chapters and then throw its content on Google Translate? Because I don't think that would be a very enjoyable experience.

    Or do you mean they should visit Scribblehub and support the authors by visiting their patreon? I can approve of that one! ^^)/

    Anything, really. Write fanfiction, draw fanart. Write a review of a novel you liked on Novel Updates. And more.
