THIS CHAPTER IS ABOUT 2 THINGS.
1: AUTHORS NOTES
I personally read authors notes, and often people don't know what to say.
GET TO KNOW YOUR READERS!
Ask things like:Where are you guys from?
How have you guys been?
Any suggestions?
Blah blah blah.ALSO, INTERACT WITH THEM!
Reply to their comments. Check on them. Let them know what to expect in your story!
2: PLANNING
Plan your stories! Keep a journal of ideas. Write down things that you would like to happen, then try to put them together to see if it makes sense. If it doesn't go together, CROSS IT OFF.
Ex;
•Reader attends college
•Reader is 25 years old
•Reader meets (chosen character at) [destination]
•Reader works a full time jobIF YOUR READER WORKS A FULL TIME JOB, HE/SHE MOST DEFINITELY DOESN'T HAVE TIME FOR COLLEGE, SO CROSS OFF COLLEGE.
Do your research if needed.
Make sure that the title of your book goes with the actual story line in some way.
Ex;
On Stargazing; Sarah loved to Stargaze with Chris in highscool.
COVER!
PLEASE PLEASE PAH-LEEZ design your own cover. Do not steal another authors cover that he/she spent the time to edit.
There are so many websites that you can design them on! Picsart, Photoshop, AE Prem, ect.
If you steal someones cover, they could literally contact Wattpad and shut down your account. So, please just design your own cover.
Alright, I'll stop bullying yall now.
Me after going off:
HAVE AN AMAZING NIGHT. MUCH LOVE.
