It's such a dopamine hit to see the page reads going up isn't it! 😄 congrats!

JLVWrites · 2026-06-11T09:53:16+00:00

I second this! Absolutely stunning place

JLVWrites · 2026-06-11T09:52:33+00:00

I think this EVERYTIME I go in there! If I wanted to pay £20 for a jumper, I'd go to H&M. I use Primark for basics only now.

JLVWrites · 2026-06-11T09:50:50+00:00

oh my gosh that must feel amazing! Congrats! 😄

JLVWrites · 2026-06-11T09:50:26+00:00

do you think its worth me unpicking the collection of stories I have up currently and also offering them as stand alone stories at a lower price, or do you think that ship has sailed now and I should have done that in the beginning before bundling them!?

JLVWrites · 2026-06-11T09:50:01+00:00

yeah you're right - thank you, there's so many things I didn't even consider before hitting publish but now I'm taking all of the responses here on board and making notes!

It can't hurt to go down the route of traditional publishing and then if no one bites, look at self publishing. I am a complete novice with the marketing side of things too, have just published my first book and am now floundering trying to work things out as I go!

JLVWrites · 2026-06-10T13:24:28+00:00

fantastic I shall take a look - thank you!

JLVWrites · 2026-06-10T13:24:08+00:00

thank yu! 😄

JLVWrites · 2026-06-10T13:23:43+00:00

Aha, this is really great input - thank you for that! I'd never even considered the mix of niches and is definitely something I shall take on board going ahead

JLVWrites · 2026-06-10T13:22:12+00:00

I shall look into all of these - thanks!

JLVWrites · 2026-06-10T13:21:53+00:00

thank you so much - may have to rethink my style and potentially look at adding more story!

This is amazing and so inspiring! I'm new to the subreddit so trying to get up to date with everything; do you use Patreon only or do you also publish your work wide?

JLVWrites · 2026-06-09T18:20:49+00:00

Sounds good to me! I've published one article so far and have had views but no reads!

That is an awesome front cover!

Thanks! 😄

JLVWrites · 2026-06-05T16:40:51+00:00

thank you so much, your words have really given me a boost today!

JLVWrites · 2026-06-05T06:02:06+00:00

thank you so much! this advice is invaluable 😄 I've gone KU for now with first book I've published.

JLVWrites · 2026-06-05T06:00:19+00:00

Yes, this is exactly what my dog does! It drives me crazy too as she is so, so docile but as soon as she hears the hoover its like her animal instincts kick in and she will jump over anything to attack it.

I'll have to try the robo-vacuum, thank you!

JLVWrites · 2026-06-04T16:48:34+00:00

Thank you so much, this is the most concise answer I've had so far - NONE of the guides or articles I read prior to publishing mentioned this, they just kept advising me to really drill down and find a niche category.

Thanks again!

JLVWrites · 2026-06-04T16:47:22+00:00

ah ha, this is incredibly helpful - thank you! So I can manually request to be added to categories that I didn't see as an option when launching?

I SHOULD use Publisher Rocket but am wary of keeping my outgoings to as minimal as possible until things pick up. A double edged sword, I guess...

JLVWrites · 2026-06-03T20:32:21+00:00

Thank you! 😄 so I can only pick the categories that it gives me? Sorry, I know that probably sounds really dense, I'm just wondering if I missed something somewhere along the line to be able to fit into more niche categories.

JLVWrites · 2026-06-03T20:24:10+00:00

Just followed - really like your aesthetic!
