How to become a highly popular author

[Drytron]

This here? This is how you become a highly popular author. It's literally written in the site description.

Forget about writing what you want and just write what the audience want until you have enough followers. Your first work is going to suck. But everybody gotta start somewhere. Don't compare yourself to other, it's retarded. People are just built different. Git gud.

...I don't like how this is actually a valid suggestion.

Though I would use better words.

Can attest if you write a story with all those tags you have probably hit all the big draws on here. Only one I would say is missing is Isekai.

 

[PancakesWitch]

one of my stories only have the action tag and is doing better than that one... so no, just write a fun story

Forget about writing what you want

But smut is what I want.

 

[Paul_Tromba]

How is it that I write historical fiction with zero of those tags and I found myself enjoying this community/site more than any other?

And another one.

Use the summoning spell that generates millions of dollars... Oh wait, this is reality.

Uhm... I guess get lucky.

luck is a big part of success, i would say 50%, but the other 50% is just effort and investigating things, researching and so on. if you are unlucky, you will never get as popular as massively popular authors no matter how perfect your story could be, its all about the right time and the right place, as the market becomes more saturated it also becomes harder to find succeess without trillions of ads. but at the very least if the other 50% is effort and research, you can still make some bank

Or you can just become famous somewhere else and bring your followers and readers here as you migrate. More organic traffics to the site is always welcomed.

@PancakesWitch thank you for your contribution.

Exactly.

Wait, so I don't need to ritualistically sew a voodoo doll of the top authors and then consume their talent via black magic, so only my works get trending? Damn, you should have said so from the beginning!

Hell yeah that’s my fic. I am the highly successful author.

Jokes on you though I am absolutely writing what I want.

Aren't you and Drytron the same person?

1. Always strive to improve your writing skills.
2. Never give up.
3. When burnt out, take your time to recover.
4. Pray to Tony that you gain a lot of traction.

Did you know 90% of gamblers authors quit just before they hit it big?
