      @jpwong said in New Subscriptions vs Your Library:

      @Propagandist I mean ultimately we knew the price increase was coming. They said as much years ago when they raised the price of all their books everywhere but their site, so generally speaking I don't think there's a lot of discontent over it, or the slight bump in subscription price (with the corresponding offset of additional coins).

      For my part, I'm not really concerned about the price increases or even the lack of advance notice. It just annoys me that I had to find out about it from this thread instead of an actual post by the company. In the end, my 5 years of subscription and 400+ volumes purchased was ended because they didn't copy their announcement into the news section of the front page or the forum.

      Only thing I don't like with the Kindle App, at least their PC version, is once you have a large library it takes an age for the thing to launch. I have over two thousand Kindle books, and it takes about 10 minutes for my Kindle App to open and be usable. It's pretty ridiculous.

      Hi,

      for the time being until this is fully corrected. The volumes can be downloaded by selecting the "Show only purchased volumes" in the filters in your library.Screenshot 2025-03-18 at 14.50.10.png

      @The_Ascended_Fox-lej5qfs The monthly coin distribution is handled manually by one of the staff so your account gets credited once they run the process to do the distribution. Likely with the problems the recent site upgrade has had, they're probably a bit behind schedule on that.

      Why don't you include dollars in the translations?

      G

      I'm not sure why an old thread was revived for this but the question posed here is misleading to begin with.

      Why don't you include dollars in the translations?

      Any translator/editor worth their pay will include dollars when it makes sense. However, 99% of the novels feature a Japanese person in a fantasy world so it simply won't make sense to use any currency other than the local currency and whatever the protagonist is familiar with.

      In a hypothetical situation where there's a British protagonist I'm sure that expressing currency in pounds will be considered, even if the source mentions yen.

      @Geezer-Weasalopes said in BF/CM coming or a thing of the past?:

      They last did that before I became a premium member, and I did that a couple of years back.
      It's a rather long time since they last did.

      We had one in 2020, so we've really only skipped 2021 and 2022.

      https://forums.j-novel.club/topic/3923/credit-sale-for-cyber-monday

      2021 is when Kadokawa acquired J-Novel.
      Then there was the transition from credits to coins.

      It may be a nonmeaningful coincidence that there haven't been any sales for the last two years.
      Doesn't change that there haven't.

      @Lily-Garden said in Any advice on breaking into Proofreading?:

      This is just a thought off the top of my head, but given the JNC writing contest is going on you may be able to offer free proofreading services to those of us working on our stories for submission. Obviously I don't know if that breaks any of the rules or something, but it would be a good way to get experience proofreading and would help those of us who don't have a lot of experience writing become better writers.

      That is a good idea. However, I just enrolled in a few classes using a New York State Department of Labor program. So I'm going to be too busy until after the contest. Also, it feels like something that should be against the rules if it isn't already...

      @Shiny I'm definitely going to be asking my writer friends to help me by letting me proofread their work as practice. Thank you for your advice.

      @jpwong Hmm. I’ve not looked at the back of the previous versions so far, I didn’t realize that they were only higher res and not textless.

      Oh well. It’s not like higher res can be easily noticed on an iPad screen.

      @Rahul-Balaggan Thank you 💕 for answering my question so quickly. I am so frustrated not being able to find information about a book I am really into. I know that the language barrier has a lot to do with not being able to find the information I want.
