I went poking through your archive for anything about Wattpad and didn't find any. Did you find it useful for launching original fiction way back then? If I just failed at the search bar that's also good to know...
Would LOVE to see a dedicated post on whether or not you would still recommend that or other serialized fiction for new authors to get noticed. There's also publication rights issues with Wattpad stories if I remember correctly, and seems like it would be difficult to stand out. See also AO3, but I think that's probably even harder to transfer followers to original works.
Edited to add: someone else mentioned Royal Road to me yesterday, which I know nothing about.
That edition is GORGEOUS
I love this so so so much and that undercase is EVERYTHING. Sooz I’m so glad you got your dream request as the special edition that’s amazing!!!
Stunning! I love everything about it 🧡😍

You know, this is a good question someone else also recently asked. Do you mind if I tackle it in a newsletter on the Misfits & Daydreamers?
