@SydneyCohennn i honestly have.no.idea.. the whole.thing juz.kinda happened.. i had read too.many sirius black fanfics and once i wanted to make.my own.OC so i wrote first chapter, made an account here, published it, i expected no.one to read but next day i.open i.see 1 read and comment and that person encouraged me to publish.more chapterz.and the numbers if the readers started going high up xD das about it.. but herez a few tricks if u wanna get more readers first, most ppl find ur story by searching smth so if u add more tags to ur story it should come out to any person who searched about smth related to it.. look at the tags in my.story and try do smth like that.. make the.name interesting not lame like.mine.. and make sure u make to eexplain everything in the author notes like if yer not gd at begenning the story like me tell the readers that the story will get better in a couple of chapters so.they give it a chance and stuff like that idk.. i have recently discovered that if u make other fandoms references in ur story many readers will like it so yh make sure u do that too xD there u go das all i know about publishing stories here at wattpad .. honestly i suck go ask someone else lol.. i still ddont know why ppl read my story.. its stupid.. my plotting is stupid.. god..
