Hey Bee! Welcome again!
My best advice? Write what you love, not what you think people wanna read. Engage with other authors, leave genuine comments, and don’t stress about the numbers — they’ll grow naturally when people can feel your passion. ✨
A few things I’ve learned along the way:
• Don’t be hard on yourself — if you look back on your old work and think, “wow, what was I doing?” that’s actually a good sign. It means you’ve grown.
• Don’t force inspiration. Let it come to you. Sometimes your brain just needs to recharge before it hands you your next great idea.
• Read your own stories! It keeps them active in the algorithm and helps you catch things you might wanna tweak later.
• Talk to your readers. Reply to comments, thank them, have fun with it. That’s how you build your own little reading circle — people who vibe with your stories.
• Show love to other writers too. Wattpad’s a whole community, and the good energy you give out usually finds its way back to you.
• Protect your creativity. Don’t compare your pace or your views to anyone else’s — your lane is yours.
• And most importantly, never forget why you
started writing in the first place. That reason will keep you grounded when you hit creative slumps.
You’ve got this. Keep writing, keep dreaming, and most of all — have fun with it.
