Hello! A friend of mine on here found your profile page and suggested I reach out to you. So, I’m taking a risk and going for it.
I’m an author who started out writing fan fiction here on WP. I’ve had great success w those stories. About 3 years ago I wrote a story not in the fandom and even published it on Amazon. However, it has not received as much attention. This year, I started writing a wolf shifter series which I am still currently working on. It has very few readers, most of whom were already reading my FF stories. I realize that part of the problem is that my stories are MxM which many people do not read. That being said, there are stories out there with similar storylines that do decently well.
I wanted to know if you do anything outside of publishing and announcing your stories on your message board. Is there any advice you could give that might help me attract more readers to my original works? I don’t expect any of them to be on The NY Times best selling lists but I would like for more people to find and read them.
Thank you for your help. I know I’m just some stranger you don’t know so, if you don’t reply, my feelings won’t be hurt. I’m too old for that! LOL But it’s like my parents always told me, “It never hurts to ask.” Take care and I wish you much success on your writing!
