Addy's Artistic World

This book was written on behalf of an apprentice behind, I am in no way a pro myself. However, I will still share what knowledge I have.
My name is Addison. I prefer being called Addy though.
I started officially taking art seriously when I was only nine years old.
Every artist always starts with a rough patch, some may disappear quickly, others may take a little while longer. And for me, it took nearly eight years to finally conclude that I am an amazing artist to my extent.
I write this book in hopes I can help a young, creative mind learn the basic necessities of art.
Remember this, it isn't the tools that make the artist, it is the time and dedication one puts into their work that decides upon the artist themselves.
Likewise, don't worry about needing to buy expensive stuff like Adobe software, copic markers, prismacolor markers... If all you have is crayola markers, then that is perfectly valid and all works the same if you put it to that use, and to that of your intention as well. An artist will never be done learning, no matter how good and talented one is, they are not done on their journey. Art is a skill that has many different things to learn, even after death, you were never really finished learning.
I know that info can be a little overwhelming, but try not to let that be the main thing stopping you. This is the motive behind why I decided to write this. So, I hope you truly enjoy this and I hope you do end up learning something along the way.

My Teddy
The corner of his mouth tilts upward slightly. I smile again. A smile!? A tiny one, but still. "Hm. So I got you to smile, that's progress, yeah? Can I get your name now?" I ask, swinging my feel a little. He shakes his head shyly, his mouth not moving at all. Geez! Why do I want to hear this dude talk so much? "Okay, that's fine. I can give you a nickname." I offer happily. He looks up from his book, raising his eyebrows. I just stare for a moment. He has nice eyes. Pretty brown chocolate orbs. They remind me so much of....... "Teddy." He shakes his head immediately, frowning. "What, why not? You remind me of my old teddy bear. He was a good listener and he didn't talk much..... just like you." I say softly, tilting my head. He continues to shake his head. I fold my arms, leaning back in my seat. "Yeah, it's definitely sticking. Teddy.....It has a nice ring to it, yeah?" He sighs, the first sound I have ever heard him make. "No." . . . *Jordan* Teddy!? Seriously!? She gave me a fucking NICKNAME!? What the hell does this girl want!? I stuff my hands into my pockets, walking down the busy street. Forget about her. She's just a annoying pretty girl, she'll go away. Everybody does. She HAS to go away. *Spoiler alert*: she doesn't. Don't get close to people or they'll end up getting hurt. That's my mindset. I've been through enough of that. This girl doesn't belong in my world anyway. She's too innocent. *Mature content* {Just a quick update, I am basically rewriting the story. I wrote it when I was in 8th grade and it makes me cringe every time I try to go back and edit it so keep in mind that it'll get better}Complete

The rambling of a writer
[Me, complaining and contradicting all and everything written in every fanfiction created.] No hate, Just me, rambling about different topics in Fanfiction writing. Why? Because we all start somewhere, am I right? The good, the bad, the rightout clichès and the straight up delulu stuff. Note that I probably did most -if not all- of these things myself when writing, so be prepared of your beautiful cringefest and maybe learn a thing or two about writing a plot/story. Side note: Writing is a creative process, so... no shame in making any mistakes! We all have to start from somewhere! Side side note: Most of the things I talk about come either from my personal opinion OR from the things I've learned over the years. I've been writing since age ten and even did a Minor in creative writing whilst studying for my degree. Last side side side note: The fun is to read these chapters and then visit a random story on wattpadd. I guarentee you, you'll either groan in annoyance ance you can see these things or you giggle at how predictable things will get once you know some writer mistakes. It's all fun and it educates all of us! -xXx-

Winning Back Mr. Right
Life is too short to be anything but ordinary. That being said, I learned how to play the guitar one day and wrote songs about love. My guitar skills maybe limited but I had so much fond memories that the callous on my fingers made a good souvenir on that musical stage in my life. As the years passed, I began taking interest in art; painting in particular. So I collected all the coloring materials I can find and start sketching in this huge white pad I got from some local bookstore. My brothers can sketch and since we share the same DNA, it's probably one of the reasons why I do contain a pinch of that same talent. To this date, sketching and painting are the two hobbies I still find interesting especially on stressful days and lonely nights. Call me greedy. It didn't stop there. My reading habit became so much more persistent that I also took a liking on writing. Wattpad paved a way for me to express myself, to show the world that I can be whoever I want to be as long as I put my heart and mind (together with a lot of hard work) to it. Thus, Winning Back Mr. Right was born. Like all relationships, one has the discretion of fulfilling, disappointing, and enduring at the same time. And just like the other girls out there, we need to find inspiration or simply to get stoked. Winning Back Mr. Right is a story about a beautiful, young lady named Airie. Airie is loved and cherished by Nathaniel, who is every girl's Mr. McDreamy. The couple is what the millenials would term today as #relationshipgoals. One day, her world turned upside down upon meeting the not-so-stranger-after-all Kevin, who happens to be every girl's Mr. McSteamy. Airie makes a mistake and crosses the line. Is love really enough to make a relationship work? Does being with someone for a long time guarantee a lifetime together? How she picked up the pieces and redeemed her rebel heart will lead her to Mr. Right. The question is...who exactly is Mr. Right?Complete

But she did exceptionally well consider that I just sprung this on her 20 minutes ago. And she did great out here seeing as she had just woken up from passing out. Haha. We are going to see a doctor after this though and make sure she's okay. How about I do a couple more songs for you. Just two though. I do need to take her to the doctor." That's all I hear before I fall asleep. • • "You know you start school soon right?" he says like he's trying to sound like a father. "You're actually gonna make me go to that hell hole?" "Watch your language. Your only 14 and yes. I'm making you go to that hell hole." • • "Why are you the calm one? Most kids would be freaking out." "I need to stay strong for mine and your mentality. The last thing either one of us needs is to freak out completely." • • A story about a girl. That gets adopted by a famous singer. And her world is turned upside down.

The Art of Writing: How to Write Bestselling Novels
[New chapter posted every Friday] Would you like to learn how to draw your readers in with your blurb and your opening lines so that they feel they have to keep reading to find out what happens next? Would you like to learn how to craft characters who are so interesting and real that your readers would love to be them and can't help but go through the story with them? Would you like to learn how to craft sentences, paragraphs, and chapters that keep your readers enthralled? Would you like to learn how to prevent writer's block? The Art of Writing will teach you all of these skills and more--everything you need to write a bestseller. You've probably noticed that your first and second chapters have lots of reads, but the chapters after that have very few reads or votes. You can partially blame that on people clicking on the first chapter just to take a quick glance at it and maybe add it to their reading list. But that explanation only goes so far for most Wattpadders. The real reason is more likely that your story isn't written in such a way that really draws a readers in, almost forcing them to keep reading. But you can give your story that edge it needs to become great just by following a few easy guidelines and learning some key techniques for success. In fact, if you haven't already noticed, some of those techniques are being used in this description to give you just enough information about something you want in order to get you hooked. And your stories should do the same. Wattpad is full of writers who have great story ideas but very little training in the skills required to craft an amazing story that really sucks a person in. Which means we end up with endless stories that promise amazing plots but can't deliver on that promise. Not to worry, though. We're about to change all of that. So get ready to learn the skills you need to write a binge-worthy bestseller. ***NOTE: If there's a skill you'd like me to write a chapter about, just let me know***Complete
Love In Boxing Ring
" this all is your fucking fault" all of a sudden I was slammed against my locker,towering over me was my arch enemy 'Sam the Dam'. My head was pounding against the hard surface,I hissed in pain glaring straight to him. He was fuming with anger like a predator ready to attack his prey. He stretched his right hand to grab my neck and placed the left one on my shoulder to keep me still. He lowered his chin to my ear and snarled "you are fucking dead 'Meth' ,if I have a slightest clue of your involvement in this shit, I will hunt you down till your last breath". I was choking on air and my vision was a blur ,for a while I thought I was going to die .Mustering all the courage that I could have found, I yanked him away from me. Mean while I was gasping for the air, that dickhead had his usual cocky smirk. I aimed at him and broke his nose ,blood oozing in droplets" want to mess with me Sammy! , first of all clear your own shit, you son of a bitch! "with that I punched hard-on his lower abdomen while he was still holding his bleeding nose, I left the locker room with a sense of victory. Two competent boxers who can't stand each other for a moment without insulting.... Ultimately fall in love. Man*man gay romance leave if you are homophobic.Complete
