Just start would be my advice. Thats the hardest part. Starting, and then keeping at it afterwards. Writing is hard work. there is no secret sauce, there is nothing special to make it easier. You have to be prepared to knuckle down and just do, even if you have no motivation or inspiration.

Find a smaller forum or two you like, and start posting there, get feedback, then use your backlog to post on a larger platform like Royal Road as well. With luck and good writing you'll get readers and feedback. Because luck is a part of it.

Not Jin and not TLM? There would probably be 3. Chunky, Washy, and Xiulan.

Chonkers because hes simple and enjoyable, Washy because hes a lazy shit, and Xiulan... theres just somethigng about her that I like writing.

My favourite section is perhaps Chapter 33 of Volume 1, connections, or [Break The Rocks]

I actually got started on a forum called Questionable Questing. It was posted one chapter at a time in the thread, before being cross posted to Spacebattles.

Then somebody recommended that I post on Royal Road, so I did.

If you go on royal road, I would suggest actually going the forum route first, to get some feedback on your story and build up a backlog, and then post every day on RR until that backlog exhausts itself. That gives a bump in the numbers,. as well as asking politely your viewers to help out with a review on RR when you start posting on RR as well.
