Wattpad Writing Tips!

Image
Hey Guys x I've been writing on Wattpad for quite a long time now. I published my first story in 2012 and was reading Wattpad for a while before that, so I'd say that I know it quite well. Anyway, I thought I'd write a post giving some general tips for writing stories on Wattpad. However, I don't know everything there is to know. I'm not the most popular writer, and you may think that my advice is bad, which is completely fine! This is just what has been working for me while I've been writing on this platform. And it may also be worth noting that I only write fanfiction on Wattpad, so the advice might be universal, or it might change depending on what you write. Update Regularly I think this is probably one that you can agree on if you use Wattpad. It is really annoying to find a story that you really want to read, only to discover that it's unfinished and the writer hasn't touched it in 5 years. For me, I find uploading once a week to be ...

Creative Uncertainty

Hey Guys x I've been having a bit of creative uncertainty recently. If you've been reading my blog for a while, you'll know that one of my biggest passions is writing fanfics. It's something that I spend a lot of time on, and something that I love and feel so passionate about. This may sound a bit insane, but I have just under 80,000 words of a story written that I haven't done anything with yet, because I'm uploading two different ones that have already been finished. 80,000 words is literally as long as a book, so it's crazy that I haven't started to upload it or anything. But anyway, so I've been editing the story before I finish it (probably in another 80,000 words!) and I've gotten to the point where I just feel completely unsure about it all of a sudden. I don't know if it's good enough, I don't know if it's well written, I don't know if anyone will actually read it when I do upload it, and it sucks. I'm...

A Passion For Writing

Hey Guys x I had an interview yesterday (for a university) and in the interview, they asked me how often I write (creatively, not just generally). I know that the most obvious answer would be to claim that I write every day. But after thinking about it, I realised that I actually do write every single day, which came as a shock to me! When I'm writing blog posts, I don't count it as writing creatively because it's just a hobby that I really love to do, but it actually is creative writing, which is great, because creative writing is something that I want to study and eventually make a full-time career out of. I've never really had a passion apart from writing. I like things. Of course, everyone does. I also obsess about things. A lot of things. Mainly people. I have already mentioned that I am a massive fangirl. I am currently equally obsessed with Jack Howard and Ben Cook, and when I say obsessed, I mean it! I mainly live out my obsessions by watching You...
