I haven’t been on wattpad for nearly a year. However, after taking a long break and planning my first project, I’m finally returning to write, and read people’s masterpieces. 
          	
          	I’m in the middle of writing my project, it should be out soon. With the rest of the chapter to write and editing, it should take at least two days, maybe three if I make any changes.

This is a message to my followers. I’ve been away for a few months (since February of this year). This is because I needed a break to create a story I can truly feel confident in. So I announce my return here and now with a new story that I feel 100% confidence in. It’s in the works (has been since May or June. So I leave you with this - if
          You are in any way shape or form interested in reading this new story of mine, then check in on my profile every few days for updates and clues of what this story will be. Thank you, and happy reading and writing guys and gals.

Thanks as always for the votes. I think I've probably already told you I'm a teacher - I hope to get finished over the school holidays. (Just two weeks in Europe - the frosty height of winter here). Maybe you'll get a chance to work on Evil Decay too. The first part was the best thing you've written - there was some good description and characterisation. If you want to gain a readership it's a good idea to post to schedule - ideally twice a week but if that's unmanageable at least once. I've heard Friday's a good day though I'm currently experimenting with Thursdays and Sundays (not with great success). If you can make it to 500 reads you get to access a lot of stats about the nationality, age range etc of your readership which is interesting and useful. You're probably going to need to have 10 to 15 posts up before you reach that number. Patience and hard work is the key.
          Happy Christmas! Enjoy your barbeque on the beach you lucky sod!

A happy Christmas to you too. Let’s just hope 2018 will be a better year than 2017 and 2016.

This is actually bigimp writing. I've created a second profile for the purposes of a little side project I've recently started entitled The Wattpad Murders. It's a sort of 'concept' novella in which I play on various aspects of the site to create a serial killer confessional. It's kind of quirky, disturbing and heartbreaking in equal measures. I've only got a couple short sections up so far but if you fancy taking a look just click on the Tasmanian Devil. I look forward to reading your Manson thing when it"s ready. Oh, and thanks as always for the vote on Kill.

The wattpad murders seems interesting. I’ll take a look. And my Manson project won’t be out until at least a week or two.

Sure did. At the moment I’m researching timelines, and When bronze was discovered. I never thought the research of history would be so goddam hard.

Bloody hell, that was quick! Had only just posted that last part up. As always, thanks.
          As for your new idea, sounds interesting. My advice: write the last part - even just the final paragraph or two - first. That way you'll know where you're going, what journey your characters need to make to reach that point.
          Research your historical detail well. One of my other ideas is about the remains of an Italian prisoner of war being dug up, and I've filled an entire notebook with scribblings about political background, camp conditions etc. It's like writing police procedural stuff - readers will know when you're just winging it.
           And remember the old adage: show, don't tell. That is, if you simply show the reader what happens rather than explaining everything, they'll make their own inferences and enjoy the experience more. 
          See your read count's going up nicely with Macabre Horror. Remember, if you start the new idea you'll be able to move your readership over with you. If you plan getting into the 1000s though readers are going to want to see you've posted up a couple of reading hours of material already.
          Another old adage: don't get it right, get it written!
          Good luck.
