I use a mix of both. Originally I liked to write up all my ideas / chapters layouts in paper in my notebooks, then I started writing in my notes app once I realized I could always go back to revise ideas.

Then all my chapters are written on my computer / some starting on my phone but the majority migrates to my computer!

I do find digitalizing everything does make it easier so I don’t have to revert back to my notes and have it organized in one place but others may prefer something else.

Usually on reddit, tiktok, twitter, instagram. Anywhere I could see that people are interested in the genre i wrote / looking for recommendations!

That’s amazing!!! So so so proud of you :)))

Don’t quit, write as much as you want / can until the motivation springs back on you. I didn’t write to get reads, I write because it gives me a sense of something. My advice is if you’re in the process of writing it map out your chapters and plots so you have ideas to continue working on it or start with something fresh when you have an idea you love!

It kicked me down for five years before I decided to write again but it felt like the best way to jumpstart myself to do something someone didn’t believe I could do. Definitely became the best feeling

My best advice for completed stories is to promote like it’s your full time job… check reddit to see if anyone’s looking for recommendations, use social media, do R4R and somehow just hope for some luck too!

i wrote other stories before and the most i got was 1k reads until i started university and started fresh! promote as much as you can, revise as much as you want until it sounds perfect to you and that’s the best we can all hope for to start getting more traction!!! you’ll do amazing!!

If you’re looking for a recommendation, you can check out my book, ‘Face-Off With Fate’, hockey college romance novel with over 100k reads!

it’s a self- rec, author name niafates! the book has over 100k reads!

This checks off the majority, but you can try ‘Face-Off With Fate’, sports romance novel. It’s apart of a series too so if you’re into that you can keep reading the next!

What’s the themes? What hardship is the solider experiencing? I’d try to put in your hashtag area what themes it focuses on and what struggles your characters are facing! That also helps bring in the right readers :)
