Just the normal stuff - being active on the forums here, being active on social media like Twitter, cross-posting to other sites, and forming a network of friends with other creators. 
Being active on the forums here has worked the best for me so far. It's also nice that the community is friendly and easy to get along with. I just wish I had more time to talk with other people and maintain a discussion.
I'm under 100 subs! Growing slow which is nice tho.
My main issue I think is not really knowing how to market my stuff. I;ve recently made a [twitter] which I hope will help(https://twitter.com/JoshHuntWrites1)
I'm under 100 subs and I kind of lost motivation the last few days, so that's my biggest challenge right now (and will probably always be)
I'm nearly at 20 subs but I'm trying to build up more motivation to write. I did just splurge on a fancy cover for my book that's being drawn soon! I think that's going to drive me to keep writing.
I only have one subscriber for my story / novel which I got yesterday. And a total of nearly 150 views so far, no likes or comments. I've been a member of tapas for over two weeks. I've begun posting more on the forums which get more likes and replies than my stories do! . Also on discord as well to see if that makes a difference. I think there are lots of very talented people on this site, and after a while your projects tend to be buried under new ones that get posted.
I originally wrote my story as a film idea
, which I'm trying to pitch to writers / producers to see if they would review it. I'm also exploring interactive producers. To see if my story could be adapted to an interactive one. As regards subs / likes I personally feel that people should do so if they genuinely like a story/comic.
I just started posting last week so I'm brand new with only one sub, but I plan to update 2-3 times a week! Perfect story if you like a nice balance of comedy, fantasy/adventure, and romance.
Hello everyone! I'm at 43 subs right now. Definitely the biggest challenge I'm facing is getting more eyes on my work. Hope you enjoy!
I'm at 84 subs, but I've slowed down quite a lot recently - i.e. I've dropped out of trending and I have no clue where to go with marketing to give myself a boost back in! I'll probably try to build myself a better twitter/instagram presence when I have time for it, but I just don't right now, unfortunately.
I'm currently trying to reach 25 subs, but I'm far from that goal. But I also want the subs to be genuine, not from a sub for sub forum. Those are just dead subs that don't benefit me.
If anyone clicks on my link, I hope you enjoy the story.

Hmmm, If you like elves and demons or dragons, it's gonna be here, if you wanna see the journey of boy who lost everything and wants to get stronger in order to get his revenge, it's also gonna be here, if you like magical stuff, and how it works ( There're available episodes that explain magic how it works " The origin of magic " check them out if you wanna know how, and let me know ur opinion about it )

I’m so close to reaching 50! 
The current challenges I'm facing are mostly gaining an audience since I’m new here. I have my novel plotted out, but I’m also worried about work and projects potentially slowing me down (I do 3 updates a week)
I'm at 41 subscribers rn. My challenge was finding a balance between art and writing but as I'm reviewing my first completed arc I'm wondering if both suffered as a consequence of me not focusing on one or the other. So now my challenge is branching out my audience and trying to focus on what I need to write vs. putting time into editing what I've already written. Hope that makes sense.
@Possum Marketing is so hard! And when I follow threads on how to do it, its always like "put it on insta" like its magically helpful to post something with my 60 followers deep sigh
@RainbowCat Same.
I'm at 49 subs right now and just want to hit that 50 TnT. My growth on Tapas has pretty much plateau'd (haven't gotten a new subscriber in several updates). I've slowly been building up a twitter/instagram following, but it's so hard to get those followers to actually look at my comic. Marketing is so hard and I'm really not cut out for it.
This. So much this. It's difficult enough as a comic creator. I can't even imagine how much harder it must be for the writers.
My problem is, I’m not really into sharing my WIPs with people who know me in real life. Like, I’m a private person, and I don’t want to have friends or acquaintances reading what I’ve written. But it leaves me struggling to get reads for what (in my extremely biased opinion) is a great tale.
Just started posting the first two books in my magical-girl series, Glints Saga. Papillon is at five subscribers, Dove is at one—probably because the latter isn't a romance, and though it's a darker story it's not edgy "deconstruction" tripe.
Also I had an idea occur to me about having the magical girls being called "Glints" prior to the series beginning, rather than the books building up to that becoming the title they're known by, but it's probably far too late to make that change so 
.
The biggest challenge I'm facing is actually writing consistently so that I may finish a story. The only story I became close to writing a book one and two for was M is for Monster. So I told myself, I want to work on this story- regardless of any subs or likes. I'll put it out there for people to read but I really just wanna get through it over the next year or so
