One problem I face is that I haven't figured out how to publish articles on the app. This means I have to be in front of my computer in order to hit publish. Sometimes I'm just not anywhere near a laptop to simply hit publish. Maybe I'm missing something on the app, but that's what takes me so long lol.

Also, find yourelf some publications that accept published writing, instead of draft only. That way you can publish and not have to wait around to start getting reads, but still have the benefit of the pub once they get around to it.
