PLEASE DO NOT CONTACT ME SOLICITING YOUR APP/SERVICE. Where do young writers get their ideas? In this ongoing memoir project, the author will tell you. Do you know about the never-ending love story that started in middle school? Or the time she committed her first crime (accidentally stealing a bagel)? What about the great escape from girls who hold her friends hostage at boarding school? Life is full of stories waiting to be told. In the tradition of "truth is stranger than fiction," many of these moments inspired future stories--and poems-- of their own. Complete with story snippets from childhood and from current works-in-progress, "Once Upon a Time" will inspire writers of all kinds to tell their own stories and let their lives speak.

Life is not always easy, I know that. Everybody hates me at school, students and teachers. But I don't care as long as Alex, my boyfriend, is with me. But having a boyfriend who's mysteriously disappearing is not always easy. Especially when everybody seems to know the truth except you. But sometimes it's for the best, truth is not always easy to hear. (Cover made by @PurplePizza) © Copyright 2014. Please, don't steal, copy or redistribute without my permission.

Discover some of the writing tips from Wattpad Star and formerly featured author of 'Trapped'. I have completed my share of beta reads and critiques for new authors on and off Wattpad and many of the points I have noted are often repeats - something that I used to find in my own writing as well, but have stopped (or tried to stop) over the years. It's hard starting out, but it's even harder when no one points out your mistakes. I hope you will find this guide useful to detect some of those problem areas and pick up tips on how to avoid common mistakes. Writing is an art and takes practice. There is no corner cutting - you can only improve if you keep at it. Interested? Well, then let's explore some of the common traps I've seen...

I am Willow Fox, a young girl with a passion for writing. I have always dreamed of becoming a published author, and I am determined to make it happen. Despite facing rejection and disappointment, I have not given up on my dream. When traditional publishing routes proved fruitless, I decided to take matters into my own hands and independently published my book. Although the initial reception was underwhelming, with few people showing interest in my work, I have not let that discourage me. My best friend Kei, who works as a literary agent, has been by my side throughout this journey, supporting me and helping me promote my book. Together, we have not given up on our ultimate goal of making my book a bestseller and finding success as a published author. Though we haven't achieved it yet, we are still working hard and determined to make it happen.
