Emma (rpblcofletters) Hello!

I was looking at the 'popular' creative writings, and they had 1000+ likes. I only have between 0 and 5. Does anyone know how to get more people to read my writing?

Not a clue, Emma, but I will be watching closely to see what advice people give, and give it a try.

R.F.G. Cameron | 601 comments It may be that the 'popular' creative writings have authors who do a lot of social networking.

You better tweet it girl... once you save something as an author on GR, a lot of times there's way to share on Pinterest, G+, or Twitter or FB (Not everything you post, but often in the left or right gutter.) Tweet methodically, before you do tweet scour with a twitter search for people of similar interests just a couple or one or two of your fellow authors, so you can reach those outside your circle with your writings! ALso, Google plus has groups... that's a great way to network across the world and across websites!
