Selfpublished Stories

Let's be honest: there's a lot of bad advice floating around on Reddit and TikTok about how to "hack" the Wattpad algorithm or use the hashtags. Most of it is incorrect. It's exhausting to see many writers being misled. I wrote this guide to clear the air and give writers a realistic blueprint to Wattpad. Whether you're crafting your first story, or you're a seasoned writer tired of shouting into the void, this book is here to help you build a genuine, permanent audience that will follow you for the rest of your Wattpad career. There are no hacks or myths here, just real but simple strategies that work. Inside this guidebook, you'll discover the blueprint to: - How the Wattpad algorithm and tagging system work behind the scenes to push your book to readers. - The elements needed to make your profile and book covers look engaging and professional, and that align with your genre. - The keys to writing intriguing first chapter hooks, detailed and entertaining summaries, and exciting, fast-paced chapters that keep readers reading, voting, and commenting before hitting the next chapter. - Essential safety tips to protect you, your account, and stories from wrongful deletion from Wattpad's website and bullying/harassment. You do NOT need a secret formula to succeed on Wattpad as a writer. You just need the right facts. Now, let's get to work!

A foray into my thoughts about writing, editing, publishing, and doing it all with depression.

"...little did she know that she had been falling in illegal love this entire time."

My name is Ruby Heaven. It may strike you as unusual, but I've never dreamed, or at least I've never remembered any dream. Until him. When I start dreaming about this stranger, who somehow feels familiar, my whole world changes. Who is he? Is he even real? I can't possibly be ready for the truth. Everything I thought I knew about my life, and myself, is about to be shattered to pieces.

Vira is a writer who has everything: imposter syndrome, despair, and... a Pinterest account. She decides to sell her book to Netflix. No agent, no connections, no chance - just an AI that keeps convincing her not to delete everything at 2 a.m. This isn't just a story about a writer. It's a meta-diary of survival - between inspiration and burnout, between laughter and self-destruction, between the one who creates, and the one shaped by the algorithm. Funny. Honest. Too real for comfort. - How She Hunted Netflix

I wanted to start a weekly posting called Under The Covers. The idea behind this weekly post is to inform, enlighten and explore deeper into the author. I also wanted to provide a greater insight into the books that are coming out. Also if there is ever any questions that you would like answered just ask them in the comments and I'll be happy to answer them or you can email at lostnationseries@reagan.com. If you love this nation, if you love your family and your God, then you will love this book series. If you fear where our current leaders are taking us and if you worry about the direct this world is heading, then read this book. This book is note a text book by any means, but it is intended to get you thinking, get you talking and get you questioning, "what can I do to make this a better country?" As a nation I feel we have fallen into a pattern of "what's in it for me?" We have lost sight that hard work and sacrifice is what made this country the Land of Dreams.

In Jimin Lee Ray's first ever poetry collection, she exposes herself through the world of poetry. From amazing poets like R.h. Sin, Rupi Kaur, and Samatha King Holmes, comes Jimin Lee Ray a writer that found inspiration from reading books by these amazing authors. Falling From The Sky is a collection of poems that tells the stories of a young girl who is trying to find her way as she grows up. A girl whose small stories and brief commentary show a deeper side of someone who has been stuck for a long time. The story doesn't just follow the journey of this young girl as she grows up but also follows the journey of a writer becoming more experienced and advanced in their craft. It conveys the simplicity to the complexity. It touches on life as a teenager, going through times when your being pushed down, how it feels to be depressed, but also how it feels to be loved. The essence of this story is to show you to love and believe in yourself even when others don't.

🛑 If you are an AUTHOR, or thinking about self publishing, I suggest you STOP and read this. (*sigh*, this book was stolen too) This is not a fiction novel, but a scarily true account of how authors all over the internet are having their works stolen, redistributed, edited and plagiarised, 𝑤𝑖𝑡ℎ𝑜𝑢𝑡 𝑦𝑜𝑢 𝑒𝑣𝑒𝑛 𝑘𝑛𝑜𝑤𝑖𝑛𝑔. WHAT I WISH I HAD HAVE KNOWN, BEFORE SELF-PUBLISHING ON WATTPAD: If you are a keen writer and are looking for a starting place to dip your toes into the world of publishing, you are not alone. I was once in your shoes as well. However the internet is a nasty place out there, and no matter how much research you do, if you are like me, you might have missed potentially the most important deciding point of all. "If I'd have known my hard work, blood sweat and tears, would be so carelessly copy and pasted elsewhere without me even knowing, I would have thought twice about where I chose to publish my work." Read about how works all over Wattpad and other self-publishing platforms are being redistributed without authors' consent. *** This book also contains a step-by-step guide to publishing on Amazon KDP. *** Please share this to as many people as you can, to get the word out, for those who are unknowing victims of theft, just like I was, for 11 whole months. ~~~ First Published on: Tuesday 3rd of May, 2022 ~~~ *this book is being adapted into a paperback for publishing* please keep an eye out for the updated version!
