Wattpad Interviews

@Androidwarrior

Androidwarrior was nominated for this interview! Their book 'Ragnarok' has 342 reads and they are a keen reader and writer on Fanfiction! This is my interview with them!

Why did you download Wattpad?

I downloaded Wattpad because I received an iPad from my Grandfather's inheritance fund he left me when he died a year ago. I wanted to read some of my favourite fanfics which were steadily leaving Fanfiction.net and heading here. I had not heard of Wattpad before. But my sister had it. She is a reader not a writer. So I decided to check it out. I'm glad I did.

Where did the inspiration for your book come?

The inspiration for my book came when me and a fellow writer, Baekho0123, were talking about our previous story we were making via correspondence. However we had gone through enough of it that it had gotten to be boring. So we decided to work on Marvel and Disney. The previous story was a D.C. and Cartoon Network. The inspiration came when I saw how the things in the United States were going. People were tired of corporations taking over everything and people were tired of the racial and political divide that our country was going through. They still are and things are only getting worse. That's what inspired me to write this story, I wanted things to get better. I wanted to show people that yes things are going to get dark. But they will get better if you have friends on your side. The book will be in three books so there will be a lot of darkness to get through.

Do you have any books you're planning to write in the future?

As I said before, I am planning to write three books of the Ragnarok series, the first one is halfway done. However, I am planning to write the D.C. comics and Cartoon Network story and that will be seven books. So yeah, my friend and I have stories that are in the works so keep an eye out for them over the next couple of years.

What tips would you give to a new writer to get the first few readers?

Promote your book. Tell your friends and family about what you have write and also post your Wattpad story links on social media. That's what I am trying to do at the moment. I hope people who read this interview will give my story 'Ragnarok' a try.

What is your favourite book on Wattpad?

Honestly any book that is adventurous and even romantic books. Even some BL.

What inspires your to keep on writing?

Not giving up on this story. Or any story for that matter. Also you have to have a love for the characters. I love Amadeus and writing new things for him. Even though he is created by Greg Pak and Takeshi Miyazawa. I like him and I really want to write him for a long time. I also like Peter and Luke and even (in the next chapter) Mike. There will be more characters coming in future chapters and in the next two books so get ready.

And finally, what advice would you give to a new writer on Wattpad?

NEVER STOP LEARNING AND DON'T REJECT CRITICISM. I love writing a lot. However, I also want to know 'what can I do to make my story better?' I am also posting on Ao3 but the problem with that is that it is going by a Kudos point system and people rarely use the comments section. I love the kudos but I also want some comments as well.

Also try to learn what you can do to make the story better. Research your subject before writing about it. One more thing. Never Give Up. You will face tough times. But don't let that stop you.
