This is your story. --- Thank you @kira106 for the wonderful cover!

There are hundreds of fantastic books about writing for hopeful authors to choose from, but most of them are boring, complicated, and bogged down by filler. This little book is brief, straight forward, and easy to understand. I hope it will serve as an easy-to-read manual to help serious writers perfect their craft. I should say right off the bat that I am NOT an expert; I forget my own tips all the time! However, I do know what generally works for me, so I thought I could pass it on to my friends at Wattpad. One last note: this book is for writers who have a basic understanding of grammar and story structure. If you’re interested in more fundamental steps you can take to write a great story, check out the companion to this book!

Just stuff I think about once in a while.

An idler essay. Everyday observations mingled with personal exploration.

Here are just a few thoughts I have about writing. I don't care if you are a professional or an amateur, I think you will recognize yourself in some of these words. I would love to hear your opinion.

My daughter, as smart as she is, sometimes says the craziest things. This is a collection of actual quotes that came directly from her. You can't make this stuff up. I blame it on her hair.

Just a few moments in a regular day at work. Put on a badge and gun and see if you have what it takes.

This is a series of stories based on observations I have made while drinking coffee at Starbucks. Years of training as an investigator gives me little choice but to accidentally look into the lives of people I see. I don't do this so I can have something to write about. I do this because this is what I do. It just comes natural now. You would be surprised at the stories that are sitting right in front of you if you just knew what to look for. Cover by @Setalmage

Is Wattpad a good or bad thing? Are the people on here writers or do they just think they are? Whatever your answer to those questions there are a lot of mysteries surrounding Wattpad and the people that choose to write here. Every day thousands of you get on your computer and chase Wattpad all day long looking for something. What are you looking for and is Wattpad the place for you? I think we should all take a good look at these questions and try to answer them the best we can. It's time to be honest with ourselves. I am going to pose some questions here and make some observations that you might find not to your liking. It's okay. You'll live. Let's be honest with each other and see where this goes. Join me. Let's chase Wattpad together.

I have been a ghost on wattpad for quite some time now, reading stories within the werewolf genre. For my own benefits, I have added the best of the best in this book. I find that sometimes they are overshadowed by all the not so good that I read and therefore I needed a place just for those perfect books whose authors I really enjoy. I am slowly publishing the list, because I know how difficult it is to find that brilliant book on wattpad - like a needle in a haystack. Well consider this book a magnet - a guide for you to maybe discover some of those great books. All the books featured are completed and the chapters dedicated to their authors, all of whom should know what great talent they have. For all you wattpad ghosts out there, enjoy! Zofka
