How do I get people to read my stories?

My name is happily3verafter22 and JESNOW on Inkitt. I've published at least twenty-one chapters on both Wattpad and Inkitt and have yet to get any readers. How do I go about getting readers? Is it because they are romance stories and there are a lot of romance stories on both sites?

I really need help with getting them out there more.

Softness and Scars, a book by Baela Iruel

I wrote it without AI, I created the book cover without AI, It was hard, it is Science fiction. I don't have a fancy editor, so it might be a bit rough.

Its about a trans woman, navigating a world that isn't safe for her in the 23rd century. She wants to become, but there people that are watching and they have malicious intents.

That's it. Check it out if you like :)

Less Readers or more content

I noticed fewer readers bookmarking my works. 2 years ago, I pulled 2.5k readers for one of my books, now I struggle with getting to 400. Ofc it could be my content, but I just wanted to see if someone here shares the experience Could it be that there are less people using inkitt or just so much content out there already?

How are we making our book covers? ‼️

I don’t want to make simple covers. I want intricacy and vibrancy! And since people literally judge a book by its cover I’d love to know how y’all are making your cover art? Or any art that you’re using to promote your books. Picture is of the kind of art id like to make!!

If you were one of the friends in this forest, how are you reacting to this horror?

I’m genuinely thankful for all the responses I got on my last post! Here is the first outcome and probably the last for the character's reckless decision.

I’d love to get your thoughts—not on the writing style (I’ve already had a very 'tough pill to swallow' lesson on that!), but purely on the scene itself. If you find this part cringe, feel free to skip!

And call me a psycho, but I actually found this vampire’s entrance kind of hot. Like, sir, you didn’t have to appear that close to Ava! 🔥

So, question for you all: If you were one of the other characters witnessing this unfold, what would your reaction be? Make it funny, humans!

Cover Test: Peaky Blinders + Mark of the Fae

Hi all! I'm preparing to post new spicy Romantasy on Inkitt. I've narrowed my cover/title down to a couple options, but I've been staring on Canva too long to trust my gut.

Without knowing too much about the story:

Which one would make you click? Which gets across Mafia/Magic Romantasy? Which cover/title feels sexier/spicier? Which cover makes you more curious?

Feel free to be brutally honest. I'd rather hear it now than after I hit publish.

Thanks for any feedback!
