Hi! Please read this finals authors note, it would mean the world to me!
We are here my friends. That moment that you will hit complete story.
FAQ
So I thought I'd ask some Frequently Asked Questions:
1) How are you such a good writer?
PRACTICE!! The more you write, the better you become. Even if you have writers block and no inspiration, keep writing! An exercise I like to do when I'm having trouble writing is to get my journal and just write about everything I'm thinking. Problems at school, the latest death in a book I'm reading, even politics. To clear your head helps. And remember the wise words of Dory!:
Just keep writing! (I changed it up a little XD)
2) How do you come up with ideas for your chapters?
This is hard to answer. They normally just hit me in the face like a brick to Jason's face. Sometimes my friends will say or do something and I'd think: "Hey, that could work with A Loophole," Or I'd be on Pinterest and see a fan art and be like "I need to write this!" Surround yourself with things that trigger your inspiration and don't think too much. It will come to you eventually. JUST KEEP WRITING!
3) Any writing tips?
Yes!
- Use the five senses when writing. Not too much though, cause you'll bore people but just enough to paint a clear picture in your readers minds.
- Good grammar and correct punctuation will keep the readers! You don't want to write with poor grammar, as that is a immediate turn off for readers.
- Update frequently. As you know I update weekly and that keeps my readers on their toes and keeps them with me. Update as often as you can but then again, don't rush yourself.
- Plan. Planning is a miracle sent from the heavens. Once you have a plan and a clear goal, your writing will be easier. It was for me anyways.
- If your writing fanfic, I find that readers love it when you make references. Just weaving that into dialogue or descriptions keeps the readers.
- Don't stress about your popularity. Don't worry about the number of votes, comments and reads you have. Don't compare yourself with others. It's no good. As long as you're happy and your writing, that's all that matters.
- And finally: JUST KEEP WRITING!
4) Are you going to publish anything else on Wattpad?
At this moment in time, no. Life is hectic and I love writing, but it chews up time. I would love to write another fic and I do have ideas but not now. Maybe in the future and I will tell you guys if I do. But, why not follow me and get a notification if I publish something?
Outside of Wattpad, I will never stop writing. Hopefully one day you can buy my book from your local bookstore!
5) Will there be a sequel to A Loophole?
No.
There will not be a sequel. I know this may disappoint you, but I have reasons. I don't have the time to do one and I feel like this is the perfect ending to this fic. I feel that if I write Athena's Selection I'll be ruining A Loophole. If that makes sense?
There was an overwhelming response in favour of a sequel but there will not be one. Sorry my favourite people in the world!
PJO WATTYS:
So, there is a thing called PJO Wattys and I hope to enter!
I'm pretty sure voting will open Oct 2018 and I will let you know when that happens and how to vote for A Loophole! If you want to check it out: PJO_WattyAwards
FRENCH TRANSLATION:
Yes, my blue cookies! A Loophole is being translated into French! The amazing __-BooksAddict-__ is doing the translation! I'm so very excited for this and I thank BooksAddict so much.
PERMISSION:
You can always ask me to use something from this book, but don't copy it. I've worked really hard on this story, and the idea that someone would read this, change a few words then publish it as their own makes me sick to my stomach.
Also, it's called plagiarism and is illegal! Even if I've given you permission and you've credited me in the bio and in the chapters, it's still illegal and wrong.
So please, write to your hearts content but don't follow A Loophole, change some things then call it your own.
If you see, hear or read anything that is concerning A Loophole, please contact me so I can sort it out! Thank you in advance!
MY OTHER WATTPAD WORKS:
I actually have two other works published on Wattpad.
The first is a Percabeth:One Shots. This was my first every book on Wattpad and the writing isn't as great as here. But please go and read, comment and vote!
The second is a personal short story. I wrote The Story Of How I Saw Blue for an English assignment and thought I'd share it with you.
It's a soulmate AU and follows Mackenzie as she finds her soulmate. In her world, whatever the colour of your soulmates eyes is, for example blue, you can't see until you look into their eyes for the first time. This is the story of how Mackenzie saw blue for the first time!
It's adorable, cute, funny and I'm really proud of it! Please go and read, vote and comment!
THANK YOU'S:
Firstly I want to wish every single one of you a bright and happy future! Good luck with your 2018's and may we all be blessed with a happy world and an endless supply of blue cookies.
*looks at long list of thank you's and sighs*
I would like to firstly say thank you to that one substitute teacher in year seven that told me that I had talent when you read my story in English and made me realise that I could write. Another thank you to my friends and family who have encouraged me to write.
Thank you to Wattpad for the glorious app that is you! Thanks to Rick Riordan and Kiera Cass for the wonderful world of Percy Jackson and the Selection. If you haven't read either, I at least hope you've read PJO, go! The Selection is an amazing book series and tell me how you feel once you've finished!
Thank you to my thumbs for sticking with me and writing this on my small phone. You and my eyes are the fittest part of my body!
And finally to you:
If there was a bigger, better and more meaningful word than thank you, I would say it to you. Thank you for every vote, comment, share, follow and read. For every praise you have given me and every laugh with your crazy comments. For the SSQ and their 10k comment thread on chapter 37. For supporting me and sticking with me through all 50 chapters.
Thank you.
Final word count: 229,714.
For the last time,
Please vote, comment and follow!
