@crazywriter I myself have been a part of his forum and other communities long enough to know that the chances to become a traditionally published author are not that at all.
But even I have questions concerning marketing and such. -

Hello! I’ve been writing some poems and it’s my first time to share some of them. Here’s one that I’d love to share. This is my first time and attempt to write a sonnet and I hope I can learn and improve in the future. π

I would probably create a post on Instagram linking to a new blog post every week, as well as more picture type stuff and smaller things that wonβt really make a good full b…[Read more]

That’s awesome that you’re starting a blog! π I personally use WordPress (hosted by Bluehost) which has worked out really well so far (but I know of people who use Squarespace as well).
