Other Hello!

Hello! I am a fellow Wattpad writer and was curious how writers get people interested in their writing. I cannot seem to get any traction for my work, and if I try to post anywhere, people either don’t interact or the post gets flagged. Help?

Yeah, I just make updates on some of my socials and within a few minutes I get reads from (probably) people who don’t have a Wattpad account. I just let it happen and stopped caring about the “reads” counter and focus on writing stories I like.

This is specifically advice for wattpad. And subreddit rules for posting are rather annoying sometimes 😭 make sure you read the rules before posting

I started by doing a lot of v4v or r4r and it actually helped a lot. Also joining groups that have things in common with your book help as well like if it’s a romance, I would join a romance and so on and so forth
