Since it is almost summer vacation and had nothing to do, I just wanted to write some novels.
I already completed one of them(which is a fanfic) and I'm currently writing a novel for the writing prompt. Generally, I know how to write a novel but I don't know how to make people vote for my novel to even join to the top 10.
If there's something I've missed or you have some sort of suggestions, please place something here. It would be nice since I don't know how this app works for a little bit or just don't know how to be an author, in general.
New to being an author

PhantomKnight64 I don't know about top ten, because that's...almost impossible. But generally, if you want to be successful, you should try to post as frequently and consistently as possible. Most people try daily updates, but if that's a bit too harsh, post weekly, or a few times a week.
Consistency is key. And don't give up. A lot of writers drop their stories halfway, and that obviously leads to failure. So perseverance and discipline are also very important.
Also, don't worry about rank. Just write whatever you want, be consistent, update frequently, and you should be able to get a decent readerbase.
WPC helps a lot, but some new novels are botting or bringing their reader base from another novel.
Otherwise, i don't get how you can get 2k power stones with 30 chapters out. It seems pretty absurd to me.
I don't say it is impossible, but there's probably a part of luck involved for the few that succeded to get an early success like this.
However, there's a clear correlation between your numbers of power stones and collections ( 1-2 power stones for 20-30 collections, in average). If you're writing a niche story or lacks visibility, the views and collections won't rise fast, but as long as it is steady, it's ok.
Making the top 10 is as stated near impossible without a ravenous following or being a shameless botting jackhole. As for getting more views it's just a matter of pimping your book out. Join yuebots thread, do as many share reviews as possible. Word of mouth it to your rl friends and/or family. Hop on the discord actively promote yourself till you feel more out there than a two dollar hooker
Basically it's how much of a following you can drum up.
