Hello, your author Killerbee here. You guys must be confused, angry or dissapointed that I am suddenly going to be going premium.
Yeah, it was a hasty decision as I was originally planning to go premium on 9 Dec, a week later but because I was in need of some money, I decided to have a talk with my content editor, Hao and go premium on 2 Dec.
I am writing this auxiliary chapter to tell the readers more about going premium and how authors like me earn there money.
Here's a short Q/A about it.
1. What is premium?
Premium basically means that the chapters of the novel will be unlocked after going premium. It means that they will cost SS or spirt stones.
2. How much one decide the cost of a chapter?
The number of spirit stones required to unlock the chapter is decided by the word count of a chapter. 200 words-1 SS and so on.
By this, you can expect my chapters to be of 6-7 SS.
3. How does an author earn?
It's a question many people don't know the answer of but an author earn with the support of his readers.
Authors' earnings come from premium chapters and donations but the main income is from premium chapters as most of the people don't donate.
In a premium chapter, 100 words = 0.01 USD. Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click www.webnovel.com for visiting.
101 words count as 200 words, which would amount to 0.02 USD
0.02 USD = 1 Spirit Stone
A premium chapter with 1000 words would require 5 Spirit stones to unlock, and would amount to 0.1 USD.
It means that if 10 people unlocked a chapter with 5 spirt stones, the author will earn a dollar.
You will understand that the authors doesn't earn much by this as many people don't read the novel after it goes premium.
4. Why does people don't read a novel after it goes premium?
There are many reasons to it like people don't think that a particular novel is worthy of their spirt stones or they don't have spirit stones to give to the author but the main reason is the pirated sites.
I don't believe people don't know about the pirated sites or use it. It's a normal thing to do when you want to read a novel but don't want to pay the price for it.
But because of that, an author can stop writing a novel just because he didn't receive as much money as he expected and he don't have any other way but to give up writing and look for a job.
I am not judging someone but I am just requesting to all my readers to just use their spirit stones on my novel (if they think it is nice to read) as this way, I can at least earn with my writing.
5. Why don't webnovel do anything about the pirated sites?
Trust me, this is the question I asked my editor when I learned that my novel is being pirated.
He answered that webnovel is doing whatever it can to stop this but piracy is a thing too big to handle suddenly.
They are giving their all to stop these.
6. Am I going to mass release after going premium?
In reality, I had already posted four chapters on Sunday and will continue with a speed of 2 chapters a day.
Don't have time for a mass release but I will continue the tradition of posting at least 3 chapters on each Sunday.
7. How much will I write in this novel?
Honestly, I don't know as I am a rookie author and don't know my limit but I will at least post till 200 chapters.
The story will finish in about 600-700 chapters but who knows, it can also go over a 1000 chapter.
