Message: <blockquote data-quote="Lazybones" data-source="post: 339776" data-attributes="member: 143">I'm on semi-hiatus right now (SH burnout), but when I was writing regularly, my answer was: volume.  For six months I think my average was a post every 2 days.  Before you ask where I found the time to write so much, let me just say that my job is REALLY boring.  People couldn't turn around without running into a "Travels through the Wild West" thread, and I think I got most of my readers by people misclicking while trying to get to Piratecat or Wulf and their paltry once-a-week-maybe updates.Of course, volume's also the number one reason why people DON'T read my story hour (too much material!), but hey, them's the breaks.  I tried posting a teaser thread on General, but got about 6 views or so (and I think those were all from my bumps).  I should have titled the thread "Sixteen reasons why the Forgotten Realms is the bestest ever campaign setting". Seriously, though, I have links to all my threads in my sig, post the full compilation on Morrus's hosting page, and post frequently in other folks' threads (genuine commentary, not mere pimpin' <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f609.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)"  data-smilie="2"data-shortname=";)" /> ).  The last seems to be the best method, as there is sort of an unwritten reciprocal-reading code going on here (hey, it worked for Horacio--just about every writer on this board is indebted to him for bumps!).</blockquote>
