The whole Royal Road, Inkitt, Webnovel brigade is increasingly becoming a predatory minefield. There was a recent hoo-ha on RR with a publisher called Shadowlight Press snapping up authors and plying them with contracts that included clauses...

@Sarit - good for you! Go for it. Fully support that. I am going to query for a while. I just want to try. I don't feel like I'm begging. I feel like I'm looking for the right fit. I may change my mind later and self-pub. It's fantastic that...
