The one grain of advice that I've found to be true is to stick to one pen name per genre. Besides that, you should write what you like but also keep the storytelling formula in mind. The formula you use will depend on the genre you're writing. In all, to keep readers in mind. We all expect a...

Same, ha.

Honestly, there's nothing wrong with trying KU and seeing how it goes. You will need to give it time as publishing is a long game. Then there's wide. Nothing wrong with trying that either. I've done both and prefer wide. That's when I started making the royalties that help my finances each...

Hello, nice to meet you. I write in omniscient. I also write in 3rd pov but omniscient is my favorite. My 2 cents: if that is the perspective and style that allows you to create your work freely from start to finish, then use it. Writing a book is hard. You want to have a process that includes...
