You learn as you write. I have only been writing a year and am up to 400,000 words. My second story is an improvement on the first due to planning and experience.
But, something that worries me be about your post is your motivation. Don't get me wrong, its your motivation, do whatever the frig you want. But, I am writing the story I want to read and doing my best to make it interesting for readers. But in the end, its for me. My opinion is people who have the same tastes as me will like the story. People who aren't will not.
If your motivation is purely views, stones etc. It's not easy, there are so many stories and gimmicky ones get noticed quickly. But if your work it good. If it is interesting. Eventually, it will gain followers. If it sucks nothing will help you :P
