I'm a huge fan on Wattpad and other writer platforms, and I am a super-fast reader and I go through a lot of stories so I have a few pointers that I really feel some of you should know about.  
These are things that really, really, irritate me (and other readers) and will keep us from finishing or following your story. I can't tell you how many stories I will stop reading after a few chapters because of the things I'm outlining below.  If you want to be a successful author, please pay attention to these things.
I'm not writing this to discourage writers, on the contrary, I'm writing this because I want to help writers.  
Sometimes you need to hear from those of us who just read.All Rights Reserved
