I write a weekly Substack, Future Trends and Science Fiction where I share posts on technology that was previously only science fiction and today is science fact or much closer to science fact. My goal is to attract an audience who might be interested in my near future military political techno-thrillers.
I focus on awareness of my writing and as a way to connect with readers and provide value. Maybe they’ll buy my book and maybe they won’t but they’ll certainly know who I am and maybe recommend me to others.
I'm a Substack beginner and have yet to figure out how "outsiders" find Substack. All my writing friends know about it, but how is it spread to readers?
This is a great question. Stay tuned. I think I'm going to add this to my upcoming articles. You're not the only one who's had this question. Thanks for reading!
I was advised to create articles on Substack at the CWA conference last year and have not done so because I was trying to figure out how to write content consistently without running out of topics. Do you think it's okay to post once a month?
The research I've done suggests posting weekly is better for building an audience. If you don't think a full post is doable that often, try using notes or restacking other people's posts that you like.
