I managed to get to #1 on Wattpad for Fantasy as well as Adventure in a month and a half. After four months, I had 1 Million reads and a year later I had 5 million. I worked really hard and have been very lucky, but I'm sure that following these simple rules helped a lot!
A few writing lessons I picked up here and there by reading, talking to other authors, often learning the hard way (by embarrassing myself) and occasionally advice from professionals. Everything here is presented as-is and is subject to change with no notice--or whenever I realize how silly something I said was. A lot...
So...you want to be published? You've got readers gushing on your message boards about their favourite characters, your story has climbed the hot list and rung in hundreds of thousands or even millions of reads. Maybe a publisher has approached you or you are wondering how to get your story to be on the shelves...
