Show HN: Fiction Hub – the best place to publish and discover awesome fiction
fictionhub.io
fictionhub.io
Reading tools are pretty useless: autoscrolling gets my eyes tired and the slowest speed is too fast for me. Also I don't think people use desktops/laptops to read books. Better to optimize for mobile.
Progress bar, daily wordcount and all that only annoy me as a writer. It's a creative process, sometimes I write 1000 words, sometimes 0, sometimes I delete 1000 words.
But before spending any time on extra features I think an interesting question to ask would be: if I were a writer why would I choose fictionhub to publish my stories? You want to attract writers first of all, how are you going to do it?
I've completely rewrote the site, and added a marketplace for publishing and buying stories. I have also built some cool tools that will help writers to develop good habits and write regularly, and more convenient reading functionality for readers.
Also, it is now possible to publish screenplays using Fountain(example: https://fictionhub.io/post/big-fish/)
Really looking forward to your feedback! =)
