Hey dude silly question but I got offered to turn my book into a comic and since your a successful writer I wanted to ask if the offer is legit or potentially a scam

@rhydian1119 Hi Rhydian, To be honest I have received similar requests but declined same. I cited the fact the genre my stories are in is Fanfiction so no money can be made from them. I'm not by nature cynical but would assume the person would expect some money to render story into comic form.  I have also received queries from would be Publishers seeking to publish a story but when checked could not locate them.  In any event   the Fanfiction category does not allow money to be generated and a genuine Publisher would know that!  My advice is to be very cautious.  You might receive high praise from an Artist seeking to turn story into a comic or from a Publisher but unless you can verify the identity of the person it's safer to assume they are not legitimate.  That's been my experience anyway and I hope it helps!  PS My name is Frances and I'm a girl LOL The male version of the name is spelt with an 'i' .. Francis!  Best of luck

Hi Frances,
          now I've read through the second tolerance book and it blew me away just as much as the first! The suspense, the unexpected twists and turns and the whole plot totally mesmerised me again. I couldn't stop reading at times. It actually cost me an hour or two of sleep. A bit of solidarity with Jay, who must also suffer from a lack of sleep. But it was worth it! Continuing a plot coherently and meaningfully over such a long period of time and using the characters so authentically is something very special. Thank you for all the work you put into the story. Now I am of course looking forward to book three and hope that you still have enough inspiration and motivation to continue writing this story. I will definitely recommend and read it.
          Best regards Tina

Tina, Your kind words are genuinely  much appreciated.  Never expected when I began writing Tolerance in 2018 I'd still be working on it now!  I'm sorry about the lack of sleep LOL Frances

Hi, I would like to know if you would allow me to translate your fic perseverance into Portuguese????

Frances51163

@ClarinhaRodrigues990 Sorry I'm confused. Are you going to translate it? Frances

@ClarinhaRodrigues990 I have no problem with you translating Perseverance into Portuguese if you wish to do so.  I would ask however that if you do the translation you do not request Readers to vote or comment. I prefer to obtain genuine votes from Readers based on my actual work. Thanks so much for adding my story to your Reading List Frances

Perseverance is genuinely one of my favourite books on here, I'm re reading it again for the 4th time. I can't wait for the day I see an new chapter noti for that book.
          
          Also I have figured out how to put the chapters in the correct order: I'll write them in case you didn't know 
          
          Edit the book
          Go to table of contents
          Press the settings cog
          Drag the chapters to the correct order
          Save
          
          Hope you have a great day, also tolerance is my second favourite book :)

Wow, four times . That's great ....
            As you know I hit Writers' Block with Perseverance and although I've sat down to type on several occasions too date nothing has come to me ‍♀️.  This is the first time I encountered such a problem and hopefully the last.  I hope one day my imagination co-operates again!
            
            Really glad I've been able to work away on Tolerance  ..... whenever I sit down the words just flow so I'm really glad you're enjoying that story at least and I finished Book I .
            
            I actually did those steps several times and although saved in right order when I went back into Perseverance later to check chapter order the chapters had reverted to the wrong order again  .   I have however given it one last try and for now they are in the right order.  Unfortunately I can't guarantee they'll stay that way .  I figured there must be a glitch at my end.  Anyway I will check it again in a few days and if you hear someone screaming it will mean chapters have reverted back to wrong order .
            
            Hope you enjoy the rest of your weekend.

Heyy Frances
          
          just wondering if you deleted or unpublished 'Tolerance' because I am unable to see the book on your profile and I wanted to read the new chapter. 
          
          Hope you are well :)

Frances51163

It took ages!!! Appreciate that but luckily I worked out how to reinstate Chapter with the Reads/Stars/Votes so there's no need to vote again.  I appreciate the offer though .

@Frances51163 Ok, thank you. Also sorry that your book unpublished, that must have been a hassle to sort out. I'll make sure to vote on all the chapters again :)
