Writer Profiles
Your profile at /u/your-username is how other writers find and get to know you — separate from any one book.

What it shows#
Display name, username, bio, country, website, genres, an avatar, your achievements, your Community posts, and any books you've set to Community or Public visibility.
Following#
Following someone adds their posts to your Feed and notifies them that you followed. You can see your own followers and who you follow from your profile.
Making it private#
Toggle your profile to private in Settings — it stops appearing in Discover and other users can no longer view it directly, though this is separate from each individual book's own visibility setting.
