Interviews with Paranormal authors on Wattpad.

Love writing but find it hard to finish projects? Looking for a new approach to telling stories? Embracing serialisation can help you be more productive and get more readers. In this guide I share what I've learned while writing A Day of Faces, my serial which hit #7 in the science fiction chart here on Wattpad, won a 2016 Watty Award and has had over 146,000 reads. My current Wattpad serial is The Mechanical Crown - come join the adventure!

This book is for creating oc's, and I hope it can help you when creating one or improving the one you have. :) I have made a lot of oc's and read a ton on how to make them, so I feel qualified enough to share my thoughts and help create awesome oc's! For those of you who stumbled upon this story and have no idea what an oc is... Well my friend, take a seat and I'll explain it all to you!

Welcome! This is a guide book and/or help book for people who want to write; containing all sorts of tips! Synonyms, chapter and book names, genres and genre combos, tropes to avoid, genre expands, and more! And hey, I'm definitely no master of writing and I don't think my advice is the best out there, but I have learned a thing or two when writing and would like to share that with you.

Here you are on Wattpad, ready to share your stories with the world! There's just one problem: the world doesn't seem to be coming. If you want to learn how to get your work noticed, read, up-voted, commented on, and even ranking high on the "What's Hot" List, then read on.

Title says it all, lovelies. Includes chapters on how to make a believable story, how not to make me laugh at your dialogue, and how slut-shaming will be answered with screams of injustice.

A list of 100 ways you can annoy the Decepticon Breakdown.

A how-to on being popular. The purpose is to encourage ugly undesirables to read it and improve in life. Not for the sensitive to read, I never asked you to get your own feelings hurt. Thank you for reading!

💋Hey lovers!!💋 So, obviously, I don't know everything so yes, some things may or may not be inaccurate. There's also just the simple fact that all of this is info based on how I would handle things personally. It's also a nice way to cope with the things that may or may not have happened to me :,) But, even so, I feel like a disclaimer is in order: ~ MOST OF THE THINGS IN HERE ARE JUST FOR KICKS SO PLEASE TRY NOT TO TAKE EVERYTHING SUPER SERIOUSLY ~ The advice in here...maybe not the best, but I also literally can't stop you from using it. Just be aware that you are not allowed to come crying to me (unless it's for genuine moral support or hype because I gotchu) when things go wrong because you're the one that made the conscious decision to follow my advice. ~ Some of the things in here are kind of sorta based of real events and trauma in my life, so if you do poke fun, MY G O D do it lightly/be careful with what you say. ~ Don't try to cancel me and use my content out of context or steal it because, again, some of the things in here are kind of sorta based of real events and trauma in MY life. Also, just fuck cancel culture in general. ~ Be aware that, though this book may seem kind of biased at times, this is info for everyone to use and you can alter it as you please to fit your circumstance. I just be slippin' up sometimes because the straight agenda was shoved down my throat since like, age two :). I think that's pretty much it! I feel like if this gets a big enough audience, I could turn this into a YouTube channel. Like, it wouldn't be super good, god-tier level or anything, but the content would be genuine and the way I edit things is kinda funny so if you want me to, literally let me know.

The vast majority of the writing I have seen on this website is worth less than the change I left upon your mother's nightstand. That means that, by statistical likelihood, your writing probably sucks too. Not in whole, mind you, but when it comes to a few of the trickier bits, you find yourself staring at a blank screen and scowling like a madman. I, on the other hand, am damned good at this writing stuff. So, out of the bottomless generosity of my heart, I decided to try and help your plebeian self. Plot exposition, character development, show versus tell, and all the little things that experienced writers know already. These are the secrets I'll drop on your lap in a vain attempt to make you learn a thing or two. I'm tired of reading all the crap on this site; don't let your work be part of it.

From read requests to infallible feedback, Wattpad has all sorts of readers that we've come across every day. Having been on the platform for some time, through being a writer, Watty winner, Star and Ambassador, I've come across a lot over the years. So, rather than sounding like a broken record, I'd decided to compile the questions, concerns, and comments into one resource for all your Wattpad-navigating needs. So turn on that laptop, grab your coffee, and let's start musing.

Whether it be a luxurious getaway or a new office pen, everyone could do with a little extra money in their funds. The thing is, other than the obvious, what are all the little ways you can earn a little extra over time?

A few writing lessons I picked up here and there by reading, talking to other authors, often learning the hard way (by embarrassing myself) and occasionally advice from professionals. Everything here is presented as-is and is subject to change with no notice--or whenever I realize how silly something I said was. A lot of this is simply reminders to myself of things to remember and/or look out for.
