A guide to what the campaign #BreakStereotypes means.

Plagiarizing is not something to be proud of. It is wrong. It is hurtful to whoever is being plagiarized. It should just never be done. The end of sotry. As of now updates will be weekly.

This is a contest designed to help expose your novel to the greater Wattpad community. Whether you just joined Wattpad or have been an active member for years, the sole purpose of this contest is to assist in the recognition of your book. NBR'S CURRENT CHAMPION REVIEWER: @LLMontez Testimony: I am floored at the level of amazing analysis, it was like having a large group of beta readers. - @h_coyle Because of all of you and NBR, my story is now ranking in fantasy and continues to climb! - @ktflynn Being spotlighted on NBR helped my story SO much! I got some incredibly useful tips and my story even made it to the What's Hot list in the Romance genre! - @AmeVicky02 I was overwhelmed - I can honestly say this is the most thorough feedback I've been given on anything I've ever written (tears up) - @twin_cities Being in the spotlight is cray to the zay! I was overwhelmed with the amount of positive, helpful, and inspiring comments we received. The NBR contest is full of amazing people and is really cool to be a part of. - @KaraMichelleBooks I can't even begin to explain how hard it was to choose a winner and two runner ups. I want to keep you all chained under my bed so I can trade you food and water for feedback. - @cjbirch The feedbacks were awesome! Grammatical errors. Sentence structures. Flow. Descriptions. Everything has been so useful in helping me understand how I can improve. Some of you really put in so much effort to break it down it's unbelievable. - @JovyLow6 Previous featured authors were lying when they said it was difficult to choose a winner--because it's not difficult, it's near to impossible!!! - @PipSqueeks88 Not only do these rounds help expose me to new authors but critiquing others' works makes me think of my own work in different ways and how to improve it.. - @consciousdreamer1 Not exaggerating, this has been some of the best advice I've ever received from readers - @Holly_Gonzalez

Once Upon Now Grand Prize Winner published by Gallery Books. Sixteen-year-old Mira Sighansen never questions her place in the majestic wilderness of the Yukon Territory until she witnesses her brothers' oil rig explode. Refusing to believe the young men are dead, the teen's suspicions are strengthened when their bodies aren't found and she's later visited by six wild egrets. But these are no ordinary birds, and Mira is faced with a remarkable task not even the loss of her voice or the anger of her best friend (over a boy, of course!) can hamper. Convinced she can break a magical enchantment to bring her brothers back, Mira will risk jail and even psychiatric commitment to stop the rig from being rebuilt. Failure to overcome the doubts of her mayor mother, the opposition of her drilling foreman step-father, and the wrath of an industry thirsty for the valuable natural resource could mean not only the end of her family as she knows it, but also the loss of a vital part of her peoples' culture. This 9,000 word original short story is a modern-day retelling of the Brothers Grimm's fairy tale number forty-nine 'The Six Swans' with a First Nations twist. It was part of the #OnceUponNow contest sponsored by @Target for a chance to be included in a published anthology. As of July 5, 2016, it has made it into the Top 25 and as of August 16, 2016, it has been announced as one of the Top 10 Grand Prize winners.

A collection of stories all connected by one thing: Crescent City, the domain of werewolves. Slip through the streets of this city of magic and luxury, and you'll see alpha-kings with scars beneath their suits and blood staining the diamonds worn by their queens. Humans may be found there, too, scraping out a life in the spaces between pack territories. Fragile in the face of fangs. Entranced under predatory gazes. Loyalty unbroken even in death, forbidden love that flares into murder, and dark passions that come to life only in the deep of night. Welcome to a city that uncovers the beasts hiding in all hearts.

The story of a young Patawomeck girl living in the forests along the banks of the Potomac river years after the fall of man.

So, I was doing a critique tonight. And it was the person’s first book. And I was writing a bunch of the same things that I’ve written on a million other critiques since I started on Wattpad. And, it occurred to me that I keep giving people the same advice—advice that nobody gave me—and advice that beginner writer’s NEED. So I decided to put some of it down in a book, although I’m guessing most people won’t read it. Haha But the title pretty much says it all...
