    Hello, I'm a writer of an original story on RRL. I'm currently writing it and I do have a cover, but I'm looking for a better one and for my characters/a few scenes (which I think might be awesome).
    I'm not able to write a lot right now as I'm in the middle of my exam period, but will be able to write more after I'm done.
    I would like to work with you if you are interested in my novel as I'm really enjoying writing the novel.

    Could you link me either your website or a way to contact you for more details?

    My novel on RRL: https://royalroadl.com/fiction/14732/everlasting-struggle

    Uhh...can i ask for a certain novel of mine?

    Its about the daily life of a trap that i wrote about. If it needs to be longer, how about The assassin in the other world?

    Talent is subjective, and even with talent there is a need for practice. In between work and writing chapters that take a lot of time, so by the time I get to practice here and there I'm pretty much back to square one. Aka, I may be able to pull it off but by then i'll be done writing lol. (I say may cause my specialty is in drawing robots, not people, so the characters I draw feel to be "lacking something"). On top of that there is a lack of consistency. It's kind of hard to explain :/

    My clumsiness and impatience in drawing parts also doesn't help...

    So far best I could manage is this:

    At this pace it may take me a year or 2 to be where I want and even that is not guaranteed. This is why I'm so undecided... It would be nice to give readers a good picture before I finish writing everything... but at same time it feels a bit uncomfortable taking the easy way out.

    Hey, just do the way that gives you the least regrets~
    Even if you can't draw well enough in time, you can always "take the easy way out," but continue practicing~

    The talent part is supposed to be subjective~
    If you believe you're good enough to do it, then go!
    If you believe you're untalented and no good, then it'll be a lot harder to do it, and it's easy to quit, so you should quit, to not waste time...

    If there's a will, there's usually a way~

    That sounds lovely! Unfortunately, my current novel is on hiatus while I focus on translations...but maybe in the future or something. Good luck!

    hmm, maybe at least 2000 words then? That's about the length of a chapter for some novels here. I think i'll go with sir @elengee 's suggestion. i'll get back to you later with it.

    Okay.

    Daily Life of a Trap
    -Cover. The MC(Blue Hair, Sky Blue eyes, shoulder-length hair and looks feminine) thats being carried like a princess by The senpai(neck-length Brown hair, red eyes and has this elegant look) while being chased by the rest of the cast(four people, their discription? You can draw them in any way.).

    The Assassin in the other world
    -Cover. An Art of an MC(Black hair, red eyes and has this expressionless look)

    Daily Life of a Trap
    > A Spinoff of a certain manga, let me tell you of a certain MC…
    I don't think this one fits the requirement?
    • You novel must be original (no fanfics, etc.)
    I will check out both of them! :blobangel:

    Its not actually a spinoff per say...its just the plot of it. It has original characters and mostly original. Its was just based on the manga.

    I can't seem to access your illustrations, do you have a google link. Also, don't draw the illustration of chapter 5 of my newer story, please don't.
