This seems interesting. Here's mine:

Atoyama City 2237. A brutal and violent place. Crime is rife. The police are undermanned and overwhelmed. To make a living here, you need to be willing to do whatever it takes. PI and ex-cop Genji Yamagoto knows that better than anyone.

A missing girl. A case that strikes too close to home. He'll do everything he can to see this through to the end.

It's brand new, so feel free to take a look if you're interested.

@halstead2030
Your book's description sounds very exciting and well written. As someone who isn't a fan of the action or mystery genre, it's captured my attention and I will definitely check it out; relating a crime to the protagonist's personal struggle drove the point home.
I cannot make any suggestions because this type of writing/genre isn't my strong point, but I will cheer you on!


Here's mine :))

Lucy. Even the name sounds so boring and plain. Lucy is your not-so-typical, manhua heroine; good-natured and saucy, yet her past life treated her miserably. The twist is, the second one isn't in her favor either. She reincarnates into a war-struck, magical world, not as a princess... or as a noble person... or even the daughter of a merchant... but as a monotonous maid!With a carnal second prince chasing after her skirt, and a battle of a lifetime happening on the continent, how can she make her mark in this unpredictable, new world?

Your description is well written (only note is that I'd remove the comma after "not-so-typical"). Personally I'm not that interested in the reincarnation genre, so I probably wouldn't read it, but clearly a lot of people are interested in that given how popular it currently is, and I think the twist of reincarnating her as a maid is more interesting than the usual options. I'm not sure I have any suggestions (aside from the comma I mentioned lol), as I think what you have is probably about right for your intended audience.

Here's mine:

Elliott is just getting their bearings on life after college when they accidentally reawaken an ancient god, setting off a series of events which threatens the very fabric of reality.

Disasters! Cults! Clashing primordial forces! Can this creature of habit learn to embrace the unknown, save the universe, and maybe even forge a lasting friendship along the way?

@crowstories Yours seems very well written and exciting. Definitely does a good job catching interest. I personally am not a fan of reincarnation/isekai type stories so I’m not sure how long I’d last, but I might be willing to give it a shot because everything else seems pretty interesting. Can’t really think of anything I’d suggest for improvement.

Here’s mine:

The rise of a dark plague leaves the fate of mankind on thin ice. In this world filled with violence and uncertainty, soldiers and outlaws must come together and challenge the unknown if they are to stand a chance at taking their world back from a fate that makes death look like child's play.

  1. I think it fits with the story. I can tell that you've put a lot of thought into it.

  2. If it's something historically based, I would read it. I always want to dive into something that I find interesting.

  3. It's great to read about a female protagonist, but try not to make them a Mary Sue.

So here is my description.

They say that war is a game of twists, turns and unexpected outcomes. Well in this case, there are no exceptions as these two crazy dudes battle it out over the ownership of the flag in various hi jinks

@tapiyokastudios
1) I could use a bit or work but not much. Mostly in the last 2 sentences.
2) No it doesn't, though, upon looking at your comic, it really drew me in. I find descriptions awfully dry, so I don't put that on you. But when I read this, I was like oh another cop drama. I still think that you should elaborate more on the last few sentences, to make it really stand out. Magic tricks. Like what. Maybe add something like "Tomohiro, the master of misdirection uses his slight of hand solves to solve crimes." Or something like that.
3) Improvements you can work on. I feel that the "Over time the story darkens and matures as we go through their pasts, and reveal their deepest secrets." is telling and not showing. Its a bit too direct, rather elude to whatever that dark stuff is.


here is mine.

dis: Ahiko is a simple stable hand in Azeria when she receives an acceptance letter from the Aris Mage’s Guild. As she journeys to the Aris’ Guild, a surprise encounter with the mysterious Illocian Guild changes the course of her life forever. Accompanied by the sorcerer Rokuzo Barachi and artificer Enossa, they travel across the Azerian countryside to Acanium. Now working as a group of misfits, the trio faces against the Illocian Guild to maintain peace in Azeria.

Neither am I, and it's not that kind of story, but it's good to know that it looks that way! Is there anything in particular that gives you that impression?

@crowstories It’s the “reawaken as an ancient god” part. I got the impression that MC was reincarnated and awakens into an alternate ancient world or something of that nature.

Ohhh, not as an ancient god -- they reawaken an ancient god (a separate entity from them) and they hang out in modern day Washington state together.

@cjspiethillustr
1. Do you find their description well-written? Yes! it's cinematic and classic. It uses that format but doesn't overly rely on it, and gives just enough details about the story.
2. Does it compel you to read their comic/novel? (if yes why, if no why not?) Well... I am already subscribed, so clearly it worked on me.
3. Do you have and suggestions for improvement they can make? Not much, "working" as a tribe of misfits is kind of weird phrasing, might wanna find a different word, but other than that not really.

Here's mine:

An exploration of the minds and dynamics of a group of apocalypse survivors. Who were they before The End? Who are they now?

@lumisullivan I had a flashback to the School Days with that first sentence. PHEW! The only problem I saw was that "perpetrator" should be "perpetrators." That little grammatical error messed with the description's flow for me ^^;

@crowstories I love it! I don't know why, but I could hear that Disney Channel Original Movie narrator guy when reading yours.

Here's mine!

Falling in love isn't easy for Heo Yuri when his rival and his best friend start falling for the same girl in this twisted spin on the reverse harem genre!

  1. It's a little long-winded.
  2. It makes me want to avoid the story, sorry. It seems really cliche, even if it's subverting something; the story still sounds reliant on the idea that it's twisting off of.
  3. Try letting the story stand on its own legs, without the genre-signaling. Something like: "Who said love was easy? Heo Yuri never did, and he probably never will. The only girl he likes is at arm's length, thanks to his best friend and his class rival - both of whom are standing in the way. Can he earn her affection anyway, or is she secretly planning to keep them all by a thread?"

Here's mine:

"It's Gale's second year at Slate Middle School... but something's off. For starters, why can't she remember the first half of the year, or why she suddenly has ninja reflexes? Worse yet, her own big sister Ginger seems to have crossed over to the dark side! Does it all have something to do with the mysterious Millwheel Group?"

Ohhhh I really like this description! I might actually give your series a read when I have the time. It gives off just enough information to pull me in, but not enough to fully spoil everything.

Anyway, here's mine:

"One stormy evening, Kiki Cruz's life gets flipped upside-down after a power surge causes her favorite characters from The King of Fighters and Tekken to jump out of her PC and into the 3D world. With no way to return them to their 2D home, Kiki has no choice but to let Kyo Kusanagi, Iori Yagami, Terry Bogard, and Kazuya Mishima become her new roommates."

Thanks for the feedback! Some of my favorite bits of media like Puella Madoka Magi Magica and Doki Doki Literature Club bait people by tricking their audience into thinking it's one thing, then revealing that it's another. If that's not your fancy, I'll respect that!
