HI there! are you a fledgling writer trying to figure out how to make the words go? does it seem like you can only write edgy fanfics? do you have opposition because people don't like how you ship people in your books? well, my dear friend, have I got the book for you!
In this book (I say book, it's really gonna be more like a collection of lessons, tips, and lectures), I will attempt to explain how to write everything from common tropes to epic romance to simple character traits like a stutter.
DISCLAIMER:
I am not using this to claim that I am an expert at writing, I just feel like I possess/have learned a lot of valuable knowledge that I wish to share. I will be crediting the sources I have learned from, I encourage anyone who reads this to check them out and demand you also do your own research. please don't just rely on me if you do use this!

Prisimpad: A Guide to Wattpad, Writing, and Whatever
I will no longer be updating this guide. I'm leaving it up in case it will continue to be helpful to anyone in the future. People have asked me writing tips, Wattpad tips, and whatever. This is some of that advice I give them. Keep in mind most of this is my opinion in addition to things other people have taught me to do and not to do. It is by no means 100% to be followed but only a guide to get you thinking. The beauty of writing is that there is no one correct answer. We each learn and adapt to our own personal styles.Complete
Walkers, Arrows, Love and Daryl Dixon. What else can a girl ask for?
Hello! So I've been asked to write a walking dead fanfiction a couple times now, I know the series is over but never late then ever am I right? With that being said TWD is a long ass series I'm not sure how long I'll do this for. I am starting by season one of the series just cause it makes more sense and gives me more wiggle room for developments. Some things will change from the original plot, if you don't like it then I'm sorry but don't read it. Eventually I'll stray away from writing word by word of what the characters say, just cause it's a lot to go back and forth to watch the episode to see what exactly was said and done. WARNING: This fanfic will be mature, which means there's gore, SEX and other mature themes. There will be no warnings it'll just happen. So, if you get squeamish at sex then don't read. If you don't like gore...then why are you reading a zombie fanfic? DISCLAIMER: I do not own TWD or its characters. I only own my own. This is a fan fiction after all. Once again, there WILL be plot changes and this fanfiction might not go all the way to the last season. Please enjoy. Real Description: Name's Ivanna King, but most call me Ivy, Poison Ivy, or Red-not for my looks, but for my temper. I've tried working on it, but the military and the apocalypse didn't exactly help. I was helping the Doc with his research when alarms went off. On the monitor, a guy with pleading eyes and a sheriffs hat begged for help. Before I could object, the Doc let his group in. Now, with time ticking down and this place set to blow, I can't wait to see how they handle the truth. (Daryl Dixon x OC)
How NOT to write Fandom Stories
Stop writing like that.... Just some things and stuff about fanfiction I've seen a couple of these with certain fandoms and I love those stories and have my own things to say because it's so hard finding many good stories for something. ~general tips ~Teen Wolf ~The 100 ~The Walking Dead ~13 Reasons Why ~etc. *I know people write these stories for certain fandoms so this is a lot of fandoms and regular tips*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-

Nod my Head - A Writing Guide for Wattpad Writers
Do you find yourself writing he nodded, she shook her head, he shrugged, over and over again? It gets tedious, and doesn't help at all when it comes to pin pointing your character's actual emotions. So I've made a book using notes I've been collecting over a few years to help you chose an alternative way to show that your character is angry, or sad, etc, plus many other writing tips and resources. Doesn't, he blinked at his watch, read better than, he looked at his watch ? Doesn't, he slugged across the wet cement, read better than, he walked down the street slowly. Avoid the white room in your story and replace telling with showing to give your readers a much better experience. **** When Alice storms across the room instead of walks, we know she's angry. We're expecting suspense. We're waiting for the next action. Maybe she'l punch a wall? Shout at her friend? Much better than, Alice walked across the room angrily, which gives your reader nothing to imagine.Complete![One Micro Fiction Story each Day [complete]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/217830477-256-k113167.jpg)
One Micro Fiction Story each Day [complete]
I have decided to force myself to write every day. I've tried to start a novel countless times, so I have reached the conclusion that it's better to write short stories. I was looking for Short Story challenges to make it exiting, and I found one that I liked; writing one micro fiction story each day, it doesn't matter how many words it has or what it is about, but, I have to finish one every day. I decided this was the best moment to start, it being march of 2020, and me being in quarantine with nothing to do. This is why this book exists, each day I will write a piece of micro-fiction and post it in this book. I believe that I will get better through time if I follow this challenge. Some day I may decide to stop it, though hopefully it will be in a long time. (by the way, it's not complete but I marked it like that because the chapters don't compliment one-another, so each story is basically done by the time I publish it) -Lilly RoseComplete
