Hi, my name is Emma! If you're here, I'm guessing you and I share the unfortunate fate of often feeling like we're in a rut, and our creativity just isn't flowing very well.That, my friend, is what I like to call "Writer's Block". It's very annoying and for some, it takes quite a while to get out of the funk. Luckily, you've found my little vault of tips, tricks, prompts and ideas to help you get out of this brain fart you're stuck in!
I'm not going to update/posts regularly, it's more or less going to be categories instead of chapters and I'm either going to continuously add on, or switch the ideas out every month or so (let me know which you guys would prefer!) Anyways, read on! Also, most if not all of these ideas are from blogs on tumblr, so you don't have to ask before taking these ideas. I'd love if you guys would comment the idea/prompt/tips you're going to take/use, just so I can see which are more popular and see what you guys like and don't like! This book/project is ALL about communicating, so please leave comments and your thoughts/opinions!

🥊 Hate or Fate 💕 {Enemies to Lovers}
One day you're happy, and the next, a freak accident exposes your boyfriend's dirty little secrets in the worst possible way. I lost the man I loved, my trust in people, and my home in less than one afternoon. At least I know that I've pushed past unimaginable pain before, and I can do it again. Elijah didn't break me, just my heart. 💔🔨 So, the LAST thing I needed was to run into my ex's best friend, Gray on the street. Who cares if he's hotter than lava? Gray's a cocky jerk who seems to get a misguided kick out of making my blood boil. And did I mention the guy's got a chip on his tattooed shoulder even bigger than his inflated ego? Unfortunately, I just found out that I accidentally hired him to work on the BIGGEST campaign of my career!💀 But when Gray's prismatic eyes fill with heartfelt apologies, I don't know how to feel. It's messing with my mind, my career, my new friendships, and worst of all, it's hurting what's left of my ruined heart. I thought Gray hated me, but I was wrong...There is something much, much stronger that binds our fate. 🥊💕 This book contains adult themes (aka sexy stuff and trigger content) as well as Oxford commas and the occasional grammatical error. 🥊💕 **This is a complete story that I am currently in the process of editing, so feedback, notes, and helpful comments are always welcome.

The Lycan's Origin Series: The 1st Lycan Alpha
KNOWN PREVIOUSLY AS HE RAPED ME...BECAUSE OF MATE PREVIEW: It's all but silent when it's over. I'm left alone in the woods. I don't have the strength to get up. So I curl into a ball, hugging my knees to my chest, sobbing, and yowling as I've never done before. Red hot blood seeps from between my thighs unto the leaves beneath me, taking my virtue along with it. A fowl reminder of the atrocious act just done to my once untouched body. In the very far distance, I hear a wolf howl into the night, the sound is haunting, sounding in as much agony as I am in. *.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.* Rape, Blood, Secrets, a Cult, Rituals, Sacrifice, Betrayal, Death, and a Tragic Love Triangle is the recipe for a new species yet to be discovered. Will one girl be able to handle all thrown her way? Or will she let the darkness consume her into the monster she is foretold to become? *.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.* WARNING: This book is Rated R for a reason, there are explicit sexual scenes, mature themes, and provocative language. There are also some difficult subjects I tackle in my book, so if you are not comfortable with these sorts of topics, I suggest you go no further than here. For all my past readers, welcome back!! To the new and improved version! Boy, do I have a rollercoaster of a journey for you to tag along on. Some names have been changed and the plot thickened, so get ready.Complete
Creative Writing Shorts
So, I have a best friend who is basically my sister. She now has Wattpad and has DEMANDED that I put my Creative Writing Prompts/Shorts/To Be Continued stories on here. She thinks that there needs to be full out books growing from these in the future. (We shall see, sis! We shall see) These do not align with my fanfiction fandoms that I write about, but my own creative mind in twisted originality. Unless it sounds way similar to someone's else's work than it is not my intention. I HATE PLAGIARISM, so there's no reason to judge my work. Tell me your thoughts in the comments! All with Love, [J.C.T.]Complete
Just a Bottle of Fairy Dust
Hi guys! This is just me trying to write a few short stories. I got a lil' tired of long ones and this book will be many stories compiled into one. The stories inside will most probably my imagination being written out after it has been living in a hole in my brain for ages. Sometimes, I even write the stories about songs so... please support me by voting, commenting and fanning! 1. Genre: Romance / Teen Fiction / Short Story 2. Each story will be one chapter's worth. 3. Each story WILL be completed before publishing, so one published chapter = one published story. 4. Criticism is welcome, but please try to stay nice. 5. No guarantee of being updated frequently. Sorry about that. 6. Please comment and vote! Encouraging me will not only boost my ego but my updates as well. 7. Copyrighted, I did not and will never steal other people's ideas; all stories are my own. 8. Please enjoy!Complete

Not mature for the younger audiences. -------------------------------- I don't like explaining my books because when I do I tend to write out everything that happens, so I am just going to say that I come up with these horribly dark ideas and put them into books, of course these books may be sad, they may be horrible, and maybe even a bit sadistic, but in my mind they are badass, and I feel as if I should write them out. Of course they don't come out as I want them to but oh well you'll get the idea. I honestly think that they could be better but I had been told by my best friend that they are 'sadistically amazing' and that I should post them once they are finished, so meh. Yes, I know I happen to say this in each of my story descriptions but I truly do end up ruining the story if I write about it and I rather not go and spoil a book when I don't like it being done to me. There will be foul language, sexual content, some gay people, some stupidity, also some possible triggers, and most likely some grammar errors. So I'm just forewarning anyone that reads it. I also try to make each chapter 2000 words or more, I suppose if that isn't enough someone will eventually tell me so here you go. I get all of my pics from Google, so.... Hm hm Yeh. Also if by some chance someone does like my books and is inspired, at least message me before you steal the idea. Otherwise have fun and don't hate.Complete
Story Ideas!!!
These were just a few ideas I had but didn't know if they were good or not, but wanted to at least show a little bit of what I came up with. Maybe some of these will become full-on stories. Others maybe something that I had trouble with an didn't want to be troubled with. And they could also be bits and pieces of a sequel story. Hopefully you'll like it. WARNING!!! Any images or videos do not belong to me, they belong to their respective creators. There may be foul languages, mature moments, heavy violence, etc!![Waves - Book #2 [completed]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/299374112-256-k105959.jpg)
Waves - Book #2 [completed]
Mason 🎸 My life's in shambles. Okay, that's a little dramatic considering that my band broke up. But I don't know what to do with my future, my career and my life going forward. So I do the only reasonable thing and run as far as I can go - to Australia. Nobody here knows (or cares) how famous I am. Especially Riley doesn't care. She doesn't even like me and has no problem telling me how much she thinks I suck. Riley 🌊 He's the most arrogant person I've met in a long time. Demanding, entitled and conceited. Charming and pretty too. Urgh. Mutual friends force us to spent time together again and again. I just can't escape him. I don't want him and I don't need him, yet he's the constant dripping that will wear away the stones I've put around my heart for a good reason. ~~~ Waves is a "we don't like each other"-to-lovers book with a strong-minded female lead who has to learn to allow feelings again, and a cocky and witty (maybe unlikeable at first) male lead with a failed rockstar attitude. But I promise he's sweet underneath it all. 18+ ONLY (strong language, sexual content, swearing etc.) Trigger Warnings (may contain spoilers): 🚩loss of a loved one 🚩mentions of drugs ~~~ I'll try to update twice a week, but without a schedule this time. I may throw in a couple extra chapters here and there depending on how writing goes. Love, Izzy 🌿Complete

The Standouts - A Critique Contest by PAULAPDX (Summer 2019 Edition)
🛑 - CLOSED until 2021. ***If you're interested in my critiques, you might want to check out my weekly newsletter for opportunities to get a personalized critique. https://paula.substack.com/p/coming-soon Does your work stand out in an overly-crowded landscape? Does your story & writing shine as far as: ★ - Concept ★ - Voice ★ - Storytelling The Standouts is a fun, but hopefully helpful contest that can give you a sense of whether your story resonates with someone who's got some experience under her belt. Great! But who are you to judge? Fair question. This is not to humble-brag, but I've been critiquing and have worked with story development for quite some time, and I've picked up a lot along the way. ☙ - As an Ambassador, I work on content projects. ☙ - If you look at my profile, you'll see everything I've published so far has managed to standout in one way or another, whether by leading me to become a Wattpad Star; or by winning a Watty (twice!); or by being picked as a Top 10 in major Wattpad contests (twice!); or being featured. All I'm saying is I'm no slouch. I'm not brilliant either. But I've got some experience around what can catch an agent, editor, or judge's eye, and I'd like to share that with the community. ☙ - In another lifetime, I used to work for HBO in Development and at ICM (the talent agency) in their writers' department which means I understand how professionals quickly gauge whether or not they'll take a closer look at a work and/or make an offer. This kind of insight can be helpful if you're planning to submit your work or even just want to stand out more here on Wattpad. ☙ - I used to provide critiques for three writers, all of them traditionally published. They seemed to value my insight. Read the RULES, LOGISTICS & PRIZES chapter for guidelines. All entries get a brief assessment of their first chapter, with winners getting more extensive critiques. Sound interesting? Give it a go! 😊Complete
