@StayingSane Haha. No...I've come across other people that have been nice to me. xD
If you're looking to make friends, you can check out the Cafe under clubs. Though usually I poke around and look at people's profiles and if I find we like similar things, I drop them a message.
Tips or suggestions about getting your work noticed is harder. recently Wattpad took away the Share Your Story Club where you could advertise any and all of your works freely... :/
