Hello everyone,

I wanted to share a platform I am building called Novira. The goal is to provide a dedicated workspace for independent serialized storytellers (webnovel and webcomic creators) to publish their work while retaining one hundred percent of their IP rights.

One of the main challenges for independent creators is reaching international audiences without signing exclusive, predatory platform contracts. To solve this, the workspace includes translation review pipelines so authors and artists can prepare localized versions of their chapters for different regions.

Right now, I am expanding our visual tools with Chitra Studio, focusing on a non-destructive vector layout editor for speech balloons and custom SFX lettering.

The platform is early, and the Creator Beta is open for testing. I am looking for honest feedback from writers and artists on the publishing workflow and editor features.

If you write or draw serialized stories, you can read about the project and apply to the beta here: https://novira.art/publish

I would love to hear your thoughts on what features independent serialized creators need most in their editing and publishing tools.

Hi — disclosure: we’re developing Novira’s Katha writing studio. We are not asking for sign-ups here; we’re trying to understand real writing systems.

Do you use a wiki, notes app, spreadsheet, character sheets, or something else? What is the first continuity problem that tells you your system has broken?
