Hello and welcome to the expanded Table of Contents. Yes, I know there's already a Table of Contents on the book landing page, but it doesn't have fancy descriptions, does it? This will also include chapters yet to be posted, and I'd love suggestions about additions you guys would like to see.
So, without further ado...
1. Content Guidelines - Here, I outline Wattpad's Content Guidelines and discuss each in detail. If you're unsure what you can and can't post on Wattpad, check this out.
2. Content and Trigger Warnings - Wondering what you should and shouldn't warn your readers about? I go over the whats, whys, and hows here, and I've put together a list of warnings you can reference for use in your own stories.
3. General Tips and Tricks - Looking for just the basics? My top four pieces of advice are right here.
4. Editing Tools - Most of us probably don't live with a professional editor, so thank goodness for editing tools! What do these do, how do you use them, and which one(s) should you try? Go to this chapter to find out.
5. Titles - Okay, so you have a great title, but have you ever thought about capitalization? Or how to make a title distinct when you mention it within your story? I have a chapter dedicated just to this subject!
6. Covers - Wait, what do book covers have to do with SPAG? Well, you can mess SPAG up on the cover, but I'm most interested in what information you should include on your cover. I also include a link to a list of graphics services here.
