11 Upvotes

I’ve been on Wattpad and writing for some time now. My first book gained some popularity and ranked 1st in a few tags, but it hasn’t gotten added to any reading list that I can remember.

So happy to see my second book of the series gain recognition and got added to a reading list from one of the ambassadors. I didn’t submit to it either, so J was quite surprised. 🥹

Hope everyone knows that dreams do happen, but jt’s all about patience and time. 🫶🏻

General Help Do yall have any tips for new writers (and when i mean new writers i mean me)

3 Upvotes

cuz like, im interested in writing, and i also want like a lot of readers but i dont even know the basics

What captures readers attention? Media? Description? Book Cover/Title?

How many words is a standard chapter in Wattpad that is long enough to be detailed, but not too long that it'll bore readers?

What do i do with the first part/page, an intro or the first chapter?

General Help why do i have 30 reads on a completely unpublished book

3 Upvotes

Hi guys, new Wattpad-der here.

I'm currently writing a BxB (eith slight horror elements) story called Arrabbiata (as in, the popular red-sauce pasta).

I haven't published any chapters yet and it's still ongoing, but I have 30 reads for some reason?

I do preview the book a lot, does Wattpad count those as reads? 😭

Fox and the Wolf

Hello everyone. I am brand new to this forum and to Wattpad. I would love to exchange reads, votes, comments etc. I am glad to find out this is a thing, because I'd love to explore some other works as well.

I'm honestly, not even sure if my story is suitable for Wattpad, so feedback is appreciated. It is my first work ever shared though, lol so add a layer of kindness on the feedback

It does contain some language, so 18+ I suppose. It's more Cozy/paranormal/PowerDynamic etc.

But I am open to reading anything really.

Thanks =]

Pls check out my story! This is a slow-burn fake-dating-smut , Please drop a comment and let me know your thoughts-I'd love to hear what you think!

Intro

​Oshin transferred to Boston looking for a fresh start, determined to leave her past behind and keep everyone at a distance. But when she meets her new roommate, Emma, the two strike a deal: pretend to date to make Emma's crush jealous. What starts as a convenient arrangement quickly spirals as real feelings take over, and falling for Emma triggers Oshin's deepest fear-that opening her heart will only lead to messing everything up. But Oshin isn't the only one guarding her heart; Emma is hiding deep secrets of her own, and as their fake relationship blurs into genuine love, those unspoken truths threaten to pull them apart. Can they overcome their fears and shared secrets to build something real, or was their fake romance doomed from the start?

I'm still not writing and I can't put myself in the mood or headspace to write.

I'm still upset about not being able to access my Samsung Notes (not all of it was story-related stuff, some of it was, but still). I posted about this before, but those who don't remember, my last phone shut off and won't turn back on. Suspected motherboard short. Can't afford motherboard repair or expensive data recovery. Samsung Notes weren't backed up. Most of my story stuff was saved on Google Docs, fortunately, but I'm still upset about the notes I can't access.

That's on top of my already existing worries.

I just don't want to put in the effort writing something, with the stress, self-anger, and intense frustration that comes with it, only for people to question whether I actually wrote it/came up with it after all of that.

And that ⬆️ doesn't help my imposter syndrome, intrusive thoughts, and self-doubt at all. It just feeds it and makes it worse.

But while I can't put myself in a mood and headspace to write, I know at the end of my life, I'm gonna regret not getting my writing done because that means leaving the world and not leaving anything behind which means no legacy for me. I might not be able to put myself in the mood and headspace to write, but I feel so horrible and just so empty inside and so down at the end of the day when another day has went by and I hadn't wrote anything.

I'm not posting this for attention. But just to vent and seek some support and reassurance, I guess.

Anyone else can relate?

Looking For: Feedback I wrote a K-drama-style story on Wattpad: a stuntwoman has to protect Korea's biggest action star (who's terrified of heights)

2 Upvotes

Hi! I recently started publishing my first novel on Wattpad and wanted to share it in case anyone here likes K-dramas with comedy and action.

**What it's about:** Yoon Bom is the best stunt double in Korea, but nobody knows her face. One day she has to jump off a rooftop wearing the helmet and jacket of Do Jae-yul, the country's biggest box-office star, famous for doing all his own dangerous stunts. (He doesn't do a single one: he's terrified of heights.) Mid-jump, the cable snaps. Someone cut it on purpose, and it wasn't meant for her.

That's how she ends up as his secret bodyguard, posing as his assistant, with a contract signed on a napkin at one in the morning. Seven clauses. The seventh: no falling in love.

Heads up: the story is written in Spanish.

There are 3 chapters so far, and I post a new one every 5 days. There'll be around 40 in total.

I'd love to hear what you think of the first chapter, especially whether the opening hooks you or if anything is confusing.

Six months after her Aunt Mel vanished without a trace, Heidi is out of money, out of leads, and living in the rusted van her aunt left behind. When a charming stranger invites her to a bonfire in the woods, Heidi says yes, desperate for the first real company she's had in months. She wakes the next morning with bandaged ankles, blood on her tongue, and a radio report about a body found in the burned forest. Whatever happened that night wasn't a dream, and the thing she became in the dark may be tied to the parents who disappeared on a Georgia mountain ten years ago. With only a scrapbook someone has taken scissors to and a former best friend who has every reason to slam the door, Heidi must uncover what Mel was hiding before the people who welcomed her in close their fists.

Hii everyone!

i thought i'd make a little introduction since i'm new here!

You can call me dattexo. I'm an aspiring writer who loves creating characters, imagining fictional worlds, and coming up with stories (and fanfics) that hopefully make people feel something.

I'm still learning and figuring things out as i go, and english isn't my first language, so i'm hoping to improve my writing along the way, too!

I'm especially fond of fantasy, mystery, melancholic stories, and anything that makes you sit there for a while after finishing it, just thinking about life and ficitional characters that have somehow become a little too important to you. :')

(Currently i'm working on an Attack on Titan Fanfic about Jean x Marco, since i think they are soulmates and deserve a lot better)

I'm really excited to meet other writers and readers, discover new stories, and hopefully make some friends along the way!

I'd love to hear about what you're working on, what you enjoy writing, or what kind of stories you love reading. I'm always happy to meet people who are passionate about their little worlds and creations.

anyway, that's a little bit about me! I'm happy to be here, and i hope you all have a lovely day!

Looking For: Lost Books Is there a way I can read the original The Bad Boy and the Tomboy?

2 Upvotes

This was the best book I read on Wattpad but before it got published. I tried to read the updated version but I just couldn't, the original has a special place in my heart and I even remember certain dialogues that are missing/ have changed. I loved there being 9 brothers. I don't like how Sam and Cedric became cousins- there's no rational reason for this feeling, just nostalgia. So, is there a way that I can access the original story?

Horror New Book: Remains

1 Upvotes

Hey guys, I just wanted to post here too, but I have a new book going if anyone is interested in following along with it. I post every Thursday and Friday at 5:00PM CDT.

In gist: Two years ago, Layne Hastings died. Renn Webster never really believed that, and not because he thought Layne was still alive. He knew what happened, knew what the funeral was supposed to mean. But some things don't disappear just because it's said they should and now, strange things are happening around Aberdeen, South Dakota. Old memories are resurfacing and people, even the familiar faces, are starting to disappear. Renn is left to wonder if knowing what happened to Layne is worse than not knowing at all.
