If you could go back in time with what you know now, what would you do differently?

Hans already did the bitcoin gag, so...

In fairness, I invest in cryptocurrency and dang...BitCoin's value is skyrocketing this year.

 

[ThrillingHuman]

Nothing much, really. Invest in bitcoin only maybe?
Ah, @Hans.Trondheim told it already. Figures someone said it.

Ah, @Hans.Trondheim told it already. Figures someone said it.

Other than that, go back to the time when you were still being conceived and buy housing?

For here, I'd probably try to find this place sooner. This place has given me oodles of amusement in the last few months.

Writing wise, I'd probably not start my romance story at all. I've been rereading a novel I haven't read in a few years and realized that I subconsciously pulled too much from that novel. Been half-heartedly spending the last few days trying to sort out how to adjust it while debating just putting it on indefinite hiatus. The core part of the story is still different as mine focuses on recovering from trauma while the other is pretty much just porn with plot. Ah, well.

Oh and probably put SFaL on here. I'm just too lazy to do it right now.

Would have written more than just 3 chapters before starting to post. Maybe like 20-50.

 

[Dreyva]

I’d take the smut out of my story, rework the romance subplot, and plan better.

 

[Terrate]

Force my parents to invest, as in I'll actually whine and break sht everyday like a kid until they do.

 

[BetterNickPending]

Skip the "figuring what to do with my life after high school" phase of my life.


Oh it was supposed to be about writing:

same here.
I was on a few other writing sites before but from what I have red so far this might end up as a best place for me.
At least for now...

 

[Insomniologist]

Play touhou.
Because what else would I do?
(And maybe also kick someone in the balls. Russell, I will find you, and I will make you infertile.)

What are some of the things you wish you'd done differently/realized earlier in your own journey in ScribbleHub or as an Author? Examples for general web publishing specific to SH are welcome!

Like for me, it is Building up a backlog before publishing. I posted 5 chapters, then crashed cause my expectations were sky-high and of course, it didn't match with reality. Then after moping for a week, I motivated myself enough that it's about the journey.

So I would like to know if there is anything you want to share.

I'd post on RR very early before it became oversaturated. Back before the redesign it was very easy to get big.

If I could go back, and my German was at the level it is today, I would have written only in German from the start. Then I wouldn't have ended up working a minimum wage job for two years, and then ended up unemployed for another year.

But, you know what? I don't regret my stories.
