The Cheng'en Chronicles

New Writers, Come On In

It's so upsetting to keep seeing the stats barely change. The reader count doesn't go up at all, and there isn't a single comment. Hardly anyone reads the whole book, and by the last chapter, almost no one is still reading. New authors, let's support one another.

Any New Books? Anything Between 10,000 and 200,000 Words!

New authors, feel free to showcase your books here. Any genre is welcome.

An Ordinary Person Transmigrates

Are there any novels about an ordinary person from the modern world who transmigrates to another time, faces lots of hardships, and misses home? Not the kind where someone transmigrates to ancient times, makes all kinds of snacks, quotes classical texts, and speaks in poetry.

Male-Oriented Stories with Multiple Heroines, but Not Too Many

I’m looking for male-oriented stories with a well-written romance. Fantasy, urban cultivation, anything is fine. I hope there aren’t too many heroines, two or three is enough.

I want to read something similar to After Senior Sister Went Crazy, the Idle Sect Took Off (Qingxian Zuiwo).
