Wattpad Blunders!

Let's Get Down to it,Yeah!

#1. The blurb that gives EVERYTHING away

I think this speaks for itself to be host. I know that blurbs aren't easy to write but if you can't write it without giving out what happens then don't write one. If there isn't one at all then the story already has mucho mystery.

I don't want to have to see this:

Jamie Fox is a 20 year old man with red hair and green eyes. He is in college. He likes this girl, Mandy, but she doesn't like him back... Or so he thinks. The girl has brown hair and very beautiful.

Soon he finds out that she likes him and they get together. Unfortunately Jamie's ex-girlfriend Karen comes from nowhere and ruins the relationship. Karen is tall beautiful and has blonde hair. 

Don't worry though guys the story ends well because they somehow get back together and fix everything and Karen somehow turns to Mother Theresa. Happy Reading!

1. That is so stupid. Like seriously I don't even need to read the book now since I ALREADY KNOW EVERYTHING THAT’S GOING TO HAPPEN!

2. Why is it important to describe the character physically? Isn't that meant for the actually story. And on that point; please do not write a physical description like this:-

1st person:

I brushed my long beautiful blonde hair out of my dazzling green eyes and then pulled my designer clothes over my beautiful body

2nd Person:

I am in love with Jamie. He has red hair and green eyes and a nice body. (Okay this can be justified)

3rd person:

Jodie was walking though the school. Jodie has yellow eyes and green hair. Her body is perfect.

Do you get what I mean? When writers introduce a characters description in this way it just annoys me. It’s fine if it doesn't annoy you but this is my rant.

If you want to give a physical description in first person don't do it at the beginning. Just do it gradually.

For example:

"You have the bluest eyes I have ever seen Polly," Jenna said as she stared deeply into my eyes. Blushing, I bowed down my head letting my hair fall into a golden curtain in front of my eyes. 

Hehe, that kind of sucked but do you get what i mean?

#2. Don't give me negative feedback...

*Douchey Wattpader (No offence) - Hey guys please only leave me nice happy comments about how you like my book. All negative comments will be deleted :)

*Me*- -_-'

I hate when people do this. Do you not understand where you are? You're on a writing community not a freaking (insert place where nice things are said). You came here because you wanted to better yourself as a writer (unless you’re one of them conceited people who think there are God’s gifts to earth). Is that right? Yes, so why are you insisting on only good comments? How are you ever going to better yourself if you can't take the criticism? You should take that criticism and use it wisely.

Sure it sucks to be told that your story is empty, has no emotion and that your grammar sucks (This is what I've been told). Sure, when you read them you feel like crying and never writing again (Which I do). These people aren't saying these things to put you down but to help you. I've taken all these things to account and I do my best to repeat my mistakes.

There's no point just ignoring them because that's not going to help you.

However if you're getting comments like this:

*Douchey commenter*- Oh sweet Jesus, this is the worst story I have ever read! You should stop writing! It's all just awful!

Then you should kill a bitch because that's not nice nor is it in the spirit of Wattpad. These people aren't trying to help; they’re trying to put you down and I'll be damned if you let them win. 

You should always remember the saying: 'Haters make me famous'.

#2 Don't tease me, wench

I don't know if you know what I mean by this or not. What I mean is when writers haven’t written anything for a while or if they are regular uploaders and the story is about to get to the good part but you have to wait for the upload.

A day or so later you get your email saying that imawattpadauthour has uploaded. In a super high, you load up your Wattpad app, hit update stories, wait the twenty million hours for it to upload and when it's finished you clock on the book an guess what you see? It's not even an upload. It's just the douche of a writer wanting to give a little message saying either:

"Ha-ha! Tricked you! This isn't an upload but I just wanted to thank you guys for reading this story."

Or

"Ha-ha! Tricked you" This isn't an upload but I just wanted to tell you that I'm deleting this story... Sorry but I'm not feeling it. I hope you understand!

Me- -_-' :@ 

Bitch no. You do not do that! That is so douchey beyond anything! Okay maybe the first one isn't that bad but still! 

If any of you ever pull the second one on me I will cut you...

Alright, love you guys, BYE! <3
