Anyone up for a critique of my first RR fiction main page? It goes live next week.
As the title says, I'm posting my first fiction on RR next week so I took the placeholder page live today. I do worry the description is more than needed and the What to Expect section may go overboard.
Then again, I may be wrong and overthinking things.
Objective input would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance for anyone willing to take a peek!
I've Been Building Something for Authors—Can I Get Your Honest Opinion?
Hi everyone,
I'm an indie developer and author, and over the last few years I've built tools for the self-publishing community. Some of you may have come across KDPStudio.net, which I created to help authors format manuscripts, create covers, and simplify publishing.
Over the past few months, I've also built another platform called BookNami.net, and it's now in beta.
Before I spend more time adding new features, I'd really like to hear what actual authors and readers think.
One thing I want to make clear is that BookNami is not trying to compete with Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Kobo, Apple Books, or any other retailer. Those platforms are where people buy books, and that's not what I'm trying to replace.
Instead, BookNami focuses on organic discovery. The goal is to give authors another opportunity to be found online through SEO while giving readers an easier way to discover books they'll enjoy.
The platform includes:
SEO-optimized author pages
SEO-optimized book pages
Publisher pages
Series pages
Genre, topic, and theme pages
Reader bookshelves
Follow your favorite authors
Author updates
Personalized recommendations
An ARC (Advance Review Copy) Marketplace, where authors can find readers willing to review their books and readers can apply for review copies.
Direct links to retailers where books are sold
Everything is already built and working. At this point, I'm not looking to sell anything—I honestly want feedback from people who read and write books.
If you have a few minutes, I'd really appreciate it if you'd take a look and tell me what you honestly think.
Is the concept useful?
Is there anything that immediately confuses you?
Would you use it as an author or a reader?
What's missing?
What would make you come back instead of visiting just once?
You can check it out here:
https://booknami.net
I genuinely appreciate honest feedback—good or bad. If something doesn't make sense or could be improved, I'd much rather hear it now than after launch.
Thanks for taking the time to check it out. I'm looking forward to hearing what you think.

As the universe approaches its cold and bitter end, humanity survives by hiding inside a constructed simulation. But inside, something is wrong. A plague of memory loss known as "The Forgetting" haunts humanity, and everyone has forgotten the doom they were escaping.

ARCs Wanted - Where Fear Smiles - Psychological Horror
Hello everyone, I'm currently looking for ARC readers for my upcoming horror novel, Where Fear Smiles! Details below:
Would you forgive your best friend if she was responsible for ruining your life?
A whispered rumour draws a group of students into the dense forests of coastal Brazil: a lost Indigenous artifact, hidden for centuries and promising academic glory.
While Leah’s colleagues are determined to claim it, she only agrees to the trek because she can’t bear the thought of being left behind, and forces her best friend Charlotte to go with her for support against her dark thoughts.
What was meant to be an escape from the weight of the academic semester, quickly it turns into a test of endurance. The deeper they push into the forest, the darker Leah begins to dream. When they finally uncover what they came for, the discovery reveals something far more terrifying than any of them imagined.
A demon born of nightmares is unleashed, and with it, carnage.
Now the survivors must find a way to drive the nightmare back to its realm before society is doomed to never dream again. But as the forest closes in, the greatest horror isn't the ancient evil — it's watching a lifelong trust begin to rot.

Book Signing Tonight
Hey Kansas City - I am an independent author who just published my first novel about a kid who gets his first automobile, his first job, his first love, and his first run-in with the mob.
It's called Paulie's Pizza, and I'm having a book signing tonight (Friday 8/14) at Minsky's Pizza in River Market. 6-9pm. It's a coming-of-age story about nostalgia, friends, and moments that change everything.
I'd LOVE to see you there!!
Suggest Names for my webnovel Characters.
I started writing my own web novel 2 months ago.
The story revolves around a guy who gets sent back in time and now that he knows what is going to happen in future he tries not to make the same mistakes again that he regrets.
As the novel's story is based in my own country which is india i tried my best to come up with names which will match the vibes of my story, but i kind of suck in coming up with names for any character.
I wanted to give the main character of the novel my own name but i don't think that's a good idea.
I also thought of doing the same thing with the other characters by giving them the names from people who were /are part of my real life.
But I also scratched that idea.
So if anyone has any suggestions they are free to leave their ideas.
Protagonist-
13 years old.
Too mature for his age.
Always seems to be in a bad mood.
Has a lot of self doubt.
Always overthink.
Other characters:
Female lead- also 13
Was a loner before but changed after being regressed and her personality changes to a social person.
There are many other characters like friends,teachers,relatives and some rivals and enemies will be added in the future.
So if you'll can suggest names for them that too is appreciated.
Thank you!
SO, WHY TAKE THE TRIP TO HELL?
· Maybe you’re tired of Life?
· Maybe you want to Die a little inside?
· Maybe you just want to know if Love actually does conquer all?
They call me Deadbeat Creep. I’m seriously dead, and I’m dead serious. And I’ll be your guide through the valley of the shadow of Death.
Welcome to Mourning.
Where beauty never died ... it simply evolved.
“DEADBEAT CREEP and the Red Skies in Mourning” A Hellish Tale
Available on KindleUnlimited!
The Man In The Mask is currently free on Kindle for a limited time.
My debut psychological horror novella The Man In The Mask is currently free on Kindle for a limited time.
This is my first serious attempt at publishing fiction. Writing it was difficult, exciting, and honestly much darker than expected when I started.
The story began with a simple idea: a romance writer tries to write horror, but his search for fear takes him somewhere he cannot come back from.
The book deals with grief, obsession, online cruelty, trauma, and the way people sometimes turn someone else's pain into entertainment.
It is more psychological horror than supernatural horror, and it is meant for mature readers.

Time's New Dawn - Hard Science Fiction Time-Travel Thriller
Cover: https://darktime.co/images/cover.png
What if time travel had rules strict enough that you couldn't create a paradox?
When a dark-matter meteor gives humanity the ability to manipulate physical time, scientist Rebecca Dawn discovers that the same technology may be driving Earth toward a temporal collapse.
--
When a meteor made of dark matter crashes into the Congo Basin, humanity discovers something impossible: dark matter isn't simply an exotic substance. It is physical time.
Thirty years later, the city of New Hope has risen around the crater. Dark matter provides nearly limitless energy, rejuvenation technology can reverse aging, and scientists have learned to move time backward inside controlled chambers.
Rebecca Dawn works at Forever Young, studying the strange temporal effects that made all of it possible. When she detects an anomaly in the dark-matter reactor powering New Hope, she realizes the technology beneath the city is becoming dangerously unstable.
Then the reactor fails.
With New Hope collapsing around her, Rebecca discovers a hidden machine capable of doing something far more radical than reversing time inside a chamber: it can make the world outside the chamber move backward.
Time's New Dawn is a slow-burn science-fiction mystery and thriller built around a paradox-free system of time travel, where changing the past has consequences very different from creating an alternate timeline.

If You Read This, They’ve Lied to You | Beneath the Blood Moon
Beneath the Blood Moon: A Pure Blood Reckoning - Dark Fantasy Book Trailer
I created a short cinematic teaser for my dark‑fantasy novel, focusing on atmosphere, emotion, and worldbuilding rather than plot details. The video shows my main character inside a stone chamber reading a letter that changes everything, followed by a blood‑red moon rising over a ruined city; no spoilers - just a glimpse into the tone and aesthetic of the world.
If you enjoy dark fantasy with secrets, ancient power, and a world built on buried truths, this might be your vibe.
