Yes, Anastasia. Write quality pieces, edit and polish your work, make each sentence the best sentence you can write. Take the time to write well, and your readers will find you - and stay with you and recommend you to others. I never thought it was Substack's job to bring me readers. Maybe I misunderstood?
