Abstract

Technology development in the digital era has transformed the world of literature, particularly for digital novels. The comment sections on digital literature provide a platform for direct interaction between authors and readers, which can influence the author's creative process. Therefore, this research aims to examine the author acceptance in responding to readers' feedback on their digital novels and to explore its impact on the creative process of the works produced. This study employed a descriptive qualitative method with a literary reception approach to understand readers' responses to three digital novels: "BarraKilla" by Nova Adhita, "Paradise Garden" by Khojina, and "Abi Ghea" by Chelsea Karina. Data were collected through documentation techniques and online observations of readers' comments, then it was analyzed using content analysis techniques and was validated through author interviews. The results of this study showed that readers' responses to digital novels are categorized into three aspects: domination, negotiation, and opposition. Dominant reception can support the plot and strengthen the narrative, while negotiation and opposition receptions can be considered in adjusting the story and evaluating it for the author. This study concludes that digital novel authors respond to readers' feedback through domination, negotiation, and opposition, where this interaction influences the story's development and creates a dynamic relationship between the author and the reader.

Abstract

This study examines the growing popularity of best-selling novels written by Indonesian millennial women authors, which, surprisingly, present complex moral values relevant to contemporary social dynamics. Contrary to the assumption that contemporary literature merely serves as entertainment, this research aims to uncover the ideological structures underlying these works. Using Lucien Goldmann’s genetic structuralism approach, the study explores the dialectical relationship between textual structures and the authors’ collective consciousness within specific socio-historical contexts. The research employs a qualitative descriptive method that combines textual analysis with interviews, observations, and documentation. The objects of the study focus on three best-selling novels selected based on their popularity, reader engagement, and social relevance. The findings reveal that moral values such as justice, empathy, gender equality, and social responsibility are represented through character conflicts, narrative structures, and the authors’ worldviews. These aspects reflect the collective consciousness structure of the young women’s social class. The study concludes that popular literature not only reflects the social realities of modern Indonesia but also plays an active role in shaping moral values that are contextual, reflective, and transformative for young readers, positioning millennial women’s fiction as both a cultural product and a medium of moral education.
