. Goal 2: Getting more readers/followers:
When I started writing, I've joined some read/write sites like Wattpad, Booksie, Autonomy, WriteOn etc. Being involved in these communities widen my audience. I tried to update my stories frequently. The more I write, the more exposure. I've joined books clubs when it was still an a thing on Wattpad. Outside of Wattpad, I've joined several giveaways to kickstart my FB author page. I connected and reached out to other authors. I joined FB groups where I can showcase my works too. It's all about connection rather slapping people with buy links all the time.
