@JanaeH
So Wattpad is having a glitching problem when you try to write to where if you’re on your phone I believe, the keyboard won’t accommodate to the space you need to write your stories. The keyboard is blocking everything you’re writing and it won’t let you scroll down past a certain point. A lot of people are having this issue so bc of this, I can’t write any of my stories until they fix this issue T-T everyone report to wattpad so they can fix this asap
(3) I might have to delete the new book solely based on the fact that I might not be able to write all of the series for it. There would be at least 9 more books I’d have to write and that’s a bit too much now that I think of it. It’s either I’m gonna have to delete the book or make it into a novel instead. I’m not sure. All Ik is that I have to pull it away for now and figure out if I’m gonna upgrade it to novel, come up with something else, or not post original stories on wattpad in general cause I’ve proven to myself over and over it’s HIGHLY unlikely to get popular off of this site when I could literally send my book to literary agents, send it to editors, then get a book deal. I’m not sure.
God, I hate when I have to keep doing this cause it’s always like I realize how much my book needs work after I’ve showed it to all you guys. I just get so impatient to publish it then I pay the price when I do post it. It’s a me problem. I get discouraged and unmotivated too easily. Wattpad probably isn’t the best place for me to post my original stories. I’m just way too impatient. I’d have better luck waiting with agents probably. But if I ever DO write a novel, I’ll have you guys be beta readers IF you want. I might give up on writing in general. It’s looking like it might not be a good fit for me anymore.
I love storytelling but it’ll probably have to be in a different format. Again, i apologize guys. I’m horrible. I’ll still try to update my fanfic tho. I don’t have any plans on giving up on that. It might almost be done soon probably. Probably less than 20-30 chapters left
@el_esqueleto it says the only way I can talk to you is if we follow eachother. My Instagram is: JanaeH.Wattpad
@JanaeH sounds wonderful! I’m happy you found a solution to your problems, dear! I’d love to see what you do :) my insta is lalafell4life
@el_esqueleto ya I didn’t completely delete it. Just unpublished. Thankfully, I was able to come up with a way better idea for a novel I’m gonna TRY to write. I think it’ll be considered an urban romantasy but my friends I showed it to love the idea WAY more than the idea with the loser’s guide book idea and I love it a lot. If you’d like to see it, give me your Instagram and I’ll show you the idea and cover I made for it just IN CASE I post it to Wattpad once it’s done
(2) I just don’t know what to do to succeed with my writing. I’m not even sure if writing IS what I was meant to do. I know I love to tell stories and I have considered other formats of writing but those are too difficult to succeed in even more. Like screenwriting. Your best chance at being a screenwriter is basically writing fanfiction for existing shows. It’s rare that they’ll accept an original story script and make it into a movie. Unless it’s for anime, I’m not writing fanfiction for anything else.
I’ve tried to see if I could make a comic with ai but then i didn’t bc I know there’s a LOT of AI haters and I’ll basically shoot myself in the foot doing that. The AI hate is insaaaaane. I think AI is interesting and fun to play with so I don’t get the absolute hatred for it. Those people are annoying tbh. You can’t make anything with AI without them freaking out.
Anyway, yeah, idk if I should give up on original stories in general, if I should try to traditionally publish, if I should find a different hobby somehow, if I should find a different writing format or just what… lowkey just wanna give up on writing in general. I can’t come up with good ideas, I can’t write a novel anymore, I don’t have the motivation, and I’m completely burned out even after months of having not written a full story. It’s just all stacked against me.
What do you guys think I should do? T-T
(1) Serious question: Do you guys think I should just delete my new book on my other account I was promoting recently?
Idk, it’s just, I tried promoting it on TikTok multiple times and it seems like no one is really interested in the idea and I wasn’t really getting any likes. But the thing is, I’ve tried so many ideas to make NaruNia or even characters of my own to work, but no matter what idea I come up with, no one is interested. Do you guys think my original story ideas are bad?
The other problems that i feel like i can no longer write full length novels. It’s just too hard and too much for me. The most I can write is less than 20k words and a full length novel is about 80k. However, I know that short stories and novellas don’t tend to do as amazing on here or in the publishing world. I can only write full length fanfics for some reason.
@Orochimaru_Wife23 I might have to delete it solely based on the fact that I might not be able to write all of the series for it. There would be at least 9 more books I’d have to write and that’s a bit too much now that I think of it. It’s either I’m gonna have to delete the book or make it into a novel instead. I’m not sure
@JanaeH Maybe it clearing up unactivate followers.
Umm… is wattpad randomly bot cleaning for you guys or something cause I literally lost 70+ followers in one day??? wth is going on?
@Orochimaru_Wife23 I was checking other accounts who had loads of followers like Anna Todd and hers went from 2.02 Million followers to about 1.88 Million followers. And there’s some more people around my amount of followers too who were losing a lot of followers. Idk what’s going on
Actually, nvm guys about the shorts video story idea. It’s not working out the way I want it to. I might just have to write a whole other book the natural way. Something that I actually want to write and am able to write. If you have any ideas on what I can write for the original NaruNia book or if you have another format in which I can tell the story that’s easy to do, be my guest. I’ve tried to see if I could do comics, visual novels, short stories, songs, YouTube shorts, chat fiction, idk what else is there that I can tell the story or create a new one. I don’t got the ability to write and think of imaginative ideas like I used to as a teen. Idk why. It’s hard for me to come up with an idea and stick to it. It’s like if I come up with an idea, I’ll get bored within first few chapters and scrap it.
I’ve tried of thinking of writing different characters of my own that isn’t related to any anime or shows but I can’t come up with anything. Idk what’s wrong. Idk if it’s like I don’t enjoy writing anymore or if I need more practice or if I… I mean idk. I’ve tried everything to be creative story wise
Hey guys! Just wanted to give an update on what I plan to do with my original stories. So I posted the first chapter of my secret NaruNia book: Soultied on my other account a long time ago. Even though I did finish the story, I decided i didn’t want to post the written version of it on Wattpad. I’ve been trying to find different formats to tell the story whether it be through a comic, visual novel, chat story, etc… but there was one format I found that I figured would be interesting and entertaining.
I decided to do a faceless YouTube shorts story type video. Basically, the story will be narrated by Naeia and Nathan respectively as my written version of the story is a duo pov. There will be pictures in the background and music to go along with it. It’s gonna be posted to my other YouTube account that isn’t my anime account. It’ll be my serious stories account. Each chapter or “episode” will be less than 3 minutes long. There should be about 29-30 vids for this story, each representing a chapter.
I’m only a couple shorts in but if I can find a way to finish all 29-30 episodes, I will post it on here on my other account, YouTube, and my TikTok
HEYYY, NARUTO HAS CHOSEN WHO HE WANTS TO BE WITH IN THE NEWEST CHAPTER OF LOVE IN YOU!
If you want to know, go read it rn! It’s called Chapter 43: Naruto Confesses His Love To HINATA?!
