Finally at that stage!
🕑 Added 2023-11-17 11:22:18 +0000 UTCI'm finally at that stage of online authorship where I have been contacted by Webnovel to sign a contract with them. Of course, I won't be signing this, as even a second of googling will tell you that A&D's contract is unfair and that all their claims are a lie (you "keep" your copyright, but you lose the right to exercise it without permission from the company).
I intend to keep the John Brown Isekai and my other work free-to-read (with preview chapters) for all, and no A&D Entertainment will stop that. The above is the email I received from them in full (reminder that their claims above are either false or grossly misrepresented).
Below is the email in text form for convenience:
