Hihi moot! 👋

I think there’s a few ways to find more art. One, you can follow tags, like #art, #digital art, #my art, and the like. Of course, then you might not see art you care about.

Two, you can post about the art you want to see. I’ve noticed that the tags you use have an effect on what shows up on your dash, in that you see more of the tags you use. For example, once I started posting about In Hats and Time, and especially when I posted my drawing of Hat Kid in the ISAT art style, I started seeing more posts about A Hat in Time because of the tags I used, and more AHIT art as well. And because of that, I found a person named mothhue and their very cool AU, A Hat under Waters!

Third, follow people who reblog the kind of art you like! I see lots of In Stars and Time art on my dash for this very reason. If you find someone who’s into the same stuff you are and reblogs art of that a lot, consider following them.

Hoping you can find that art you’re looking for!

Thanks for the follow, and the question!

What to include in a masterpost… Well, in my case, it’s just a list of links to important posts about my wip. A sort of directory, if you will. So, mine has a section for snippets (just the one, at the moment), a section for loredumps, and a section for other fun things (which might split into more sections eventually). That’s how I think of a masterpost, anyway.

And don’t worry, people will care about your writing! I’ve got a few people who care about my stuff—some of whom followed me for it, and some of whom were moots before they even knew I was a writer. But if you want your posts to reach people, my advice would be something I read elsewhere: tag liberally, but honestly. Use as many tags as you can, even slight variations of the same tags. The tag autocomplete thingy can be helpful for this. But never, never use tags that don’t actually apply to the post. However well-written your post is, using unrelated tags is bot-like behavior, and might make people block you. I noticed a bit of an uptick in engagement once I started doing this with my progress updates. Speaking of, those are probably the best example on my blog of this technique in action. (You can find my personal tags at the bottom of my pinned post, if that’s easier.)

I hope this helps!
