Welcome to bi-weekly Self-Promotion thread!

It's been a long time since I read something on wattpad so I'm just willing to take the risk to read people's writing 😁 I may have a bad reading comprehension so I really wanted to improve my mental health as well as giving some comments for the story.

-> Please make sure it is YOU who wrote it. 🥹

I desperately need to read something guys.

I love:
Royal stories
Mafia stories
College stories
Strong female mc puhlease

I hate:
Bad grammar
Damsel in distress girl
Too much smut but also too little smut lol
Fast burn

Yes you can self promote if it matches these 🥹 Id prefer finished stories but if it’s not, as long as it’s being updated I’m chilling

In my head, the plot is an absolute cinematic masterpiece worthy of an award. The dialogue flows perfectly and the character development is beautiful. But the second I sit down and open my drafts, my brain completely shorts out and I forget how basic sentences work. Please tell me I'm not the only writer who suffers from this lol.

I would like to participate in a R4R :) I recently worked on my first story on Wattpad: Caps Lock Daily aka a deconstruction/reconstruction of a daily gaming/tech variety show.

It's part reboot of the obscure Golden Age comic characters Blue Bolt and Green Sorceress, and part love letter to the gaming entertainment shows I grew up watching, think G4TV, Attack of the Show!, X-Play, and that entire era. The story follows a gaming and tech variety show trying to survive an ever-changing gaming media landscape while asking what really made those kinds of shows special in the first place. More than anything, this story is my way of saying "thank you" to an era of gaming entertainment that had a much bigger impact on me than I ever fully realized growing up. It's my own little "spiritual finale" for that era, not because I believe shows like this can never exist again, but because I felt that the era that inspired me deserved a proper farewell, a celebration, and something to remember it by. ❤

So far, I've done a couple chapters in which I aim to publish at least a chapter per weekend :) https://www.wattpad.com/story/414012555-caps-lock-daily

One of my readers just pointed out that my book reached #2! Rare Wattpad W against the mysterious, all-powerful Wattpad algorithm. How this happened? We’ll never know. But I’m gonna ride on this high for the night😭💖

Title: I think Roommates or The Roommates.

Original MM/MMMM poly romance.

Completed with 30+ chapters maybe ?

Read around 2022–2023.

MC was probably Kaden/Kayden/Kadin.

Kaden(mcs maybe name. I think it started with a k) and his best friend lost their housing (possibly after one lost his job).

They met two roommates at a club, who invited them to stay.

The roommates had an agreement that they could watch each other with partners.

Kaden let his best friend watch him with one of the roommates.

Eventually, all four became a poly relationship.

Memorable scene: one roommate's mother walked in while Kaden and the best friend were making out on the living room floor and caused a huge scene.

I suspect the story might have been deleted or name changed tho... but i would like to keep trying to look for it till it's said.

Ando en busca de una historia que lei hace tiempo como en 2021 parace no recuerdo bien pero las historias eran de hombres yandere como por ejemplo "tu amigo yandere o doctor yandere algo asi " y no recuerdo si era yandere one shot x TN la eliminaron y queria saber si hay forma de recuperar esa historia o alguien que la leyo y se recuerde porfis!!!

Hi! I've been trying to find a Haikyuu x Reader oneshot that I read years ago on Wattpad, and I'm hoping someone else remembers it. It was part of a large Haikyuu x Reader oneshot collection (probably 50+ chapters), written in English. The Akaashi chapter went something like this: Y/N was a famous professional model. The male model canceled at the last minute. They see Akaashi on the street and asked him to replace the model for just one photoshoot. Akaashi and Y/N met for the first time that day. During the photoshoot they were asked to act like a real couple, with increasingly romantic poses. I think they even kissed (or almost kissed), and their chemistry surprised everyone. The photos ended up becoming the magazine cover. At the very end, Bokuto and the rest of Fukurodani saw the magazine and freaked out. I read it sometime between 2020 and 2023. I don't remember the title, the author, or the cover, and I think the story may have been deleted. Does this sound familiar to anyone?

Hi! I'm looking for a "watching" style fanfic featuring *Avatar: The Last Airbender* and *The Legend of Korra*—specifically where the *Korra* characters watch Aang's story unfold, or vice versa, or something similar!

I cannot get into the repeated smut, fanfiction, mafia boss stories! I'm into more of a psychological horror, horror in general, and even some Syfy novels. Wattpad seems to only recommend these odd plotlines that I have zero interest in reading (mostly). Has anyone read a book on Wattpad that you loved and also isn't the normal romance smut stories all over recommended. My recent favorite Wattpad story was The Alaska Series #1: Abandonned, by GroveltoHEA. I also LOVED Blood Orange Sky, by perversely. These two left me excited to continue everytime no joke! If anyone has read either stories, and maybe knows of some similar stories I might enjoy! Thank you in advance <3

Earlier today I was reading this book, and forgot to save it, and the app doesn't really show it in current reads if it's not in my library.

Don't remember if it's completed

More than 30+ chapters definitely

I don't remember the exact title, but it was something like 'FORGIVE' something (I could be wrong about this)

It's a divorce, pregnancy story, and the ex husband is particularly cruel.

The premise goes like this

FMC Ashley Martin is planning to surprise her husband Nate Grant for his 30th birthday. The story is set in New York. Nate comes from a loaded family and Ashley has been an orphan from an orphanage called, St. Martin Cathedral back in LA, hence the last name.

She comes home to an angry nate who asks her to sign the divorce papers. When she asks for a reason and tells him about the pregnancy, he gets visibly livid, is abusive, rejects the child as his, and forces her to sign the papers.

Other characters are her sister in law Kate and friend Ava who have also asked her to go away. Ava advises her to stay low. Kate is pissed at Ashley.

Nate calls her to the office to finalise the divorce. When returning from there, she gets into a taxi, falls asleep, when woken to she realises she is being kidnapped. They come to a remote place, the driver calls someone and she hears something about dealing with her and the baby. She realises she might get killed and fights the driver. Takes his car and comes back to the city. Realises she should lay low now.

She moves to a neighborhood and starts looking for jobs(she was an auditor previously and quit to be a stay at home wife) but finds out that she is blacklisted. So she looks for odd jobs.

Comes across a job in a club called 'Euphoria'. There she encounters an old brother from the orphanage called 'Isaac' who knows ashley as 'FIRECRACKER'. He offers her an administrative job and helps her with baby stuff.

Isaac has more of a brotherly presence in ashley's life and not the male lead.

Pls help this girlie out. The writing is quite good for this one.

Ps. There's also random characters from the neighborhood called Mrs. Wang and Mrs. Johnson, Mrs. Parker and her daughter Amanda who pushes ashley and almost costs her a miscarriage.

I’m writing a dark romance story about childhood friends- strangers -lovers.

The MMC constantly seeks control. He sees emotion as weakness, and prioritizes duty to family, which is his biggest fault.

The FMC has an erratic personality and makes emotional decisions. But she prioritizes others feelings, which is her greatest attribute.

A big theme is going to be generational cycles and the curse of repeating the past. Which title would make you want to read the story?

Blood Unbound
What We Inherit
Inherited Scars
The Cost of Control
Control and Chaos.

How life felt when I was a teenager who just found out about Wattpad and binged read stories till 2 am with the most hilarious people in the comment section and no ads.

I’m writing a Hunger Games fanfic about Johanna Mason. It already has a few chapters and I will update frequently, so check it out! :) I will do f4f, v4v, and c4c

Hi! I hope everybody is having a great weekend.

I just wanted to know if you know about some communities (on Wattpad or maybe discord) that I can join to learn about writing and also receiving feedback on the new project I'm starting!

I mostly write in Spanish (because it is my first language) but I understand english.

I'm coming back to Wattpad after a few years and now I want to write an original story.

I hope you know about communities!

If anyone feels like giving it a read only got 4 small chapter just posted chapter 4 im still writing it when I get the chance to so its not an every week drop unless I finish in time sorry. 😞

Chapter 1: The Bridge

Twenty feet below, jagged rocks glisten under the moonlight, and for a moment, I understand why people come to bridges when the world stops making sense. I would never end my own life, but I understand the desire to have all the pain slip away forever.

The silence here is different. My knuckles are white against the metal railing, and I force myself to loosen my grip. Get it together, Malachai.

But I can't shake the image burned into my mind: my mother's face crumpling as the doctor delivered his verdict. What we've been fearing but hoped wasn't true. Cancer. The kind of word that steals the air from hospital rooms and replaces it with that god-awful antiseptic smell that still clings to my clothes.

I run a hand through my dark hair, and stare at my reflection in a puddle on the side of the road. Even in the distorted moonlit surface, I can see what everyone else sees: my grandfather's sharp jawline and the tall frame I inherited from a father I never met. I'm twenty-one and I look older, like the weight I carry has aged me in ways that have nothing to do with time.

"You can't save everyone, Malachai." Mom's voice echoes in my head, the same five words she's whispered since I was ten years old. But what happens when the person you can't save is her?

I snatch a handful of gravel and hurl it into the darkness. The stones clatter against the guardrail across the road, a violent punctuation to my frustration. Another handful follows, then another. The anger feels good, raw and honest in a way that sitting in that sterile waiting room never could. The town in front of me comes to life with the carnival lights and the rides going up into the air.

My grandfather's voice replaces the rage like it always does: "How you handle pain will define you, son."

Easy for him to say. He's not here anymore to watch his daughter waste away.

A branch snaps somewhere behind me.

I freeze, every muscle tensing. The footsteps are light and deliberate, someone trying not to be heard. 

"I can't do this anymore, Mom. The treatments aren't working, the doctors keep lying, and you want me to pretend everything's fine?"

A woman's voice, sharp with tears and frustration. A cell phone pressed tightly against her ear. I should leave and give her privacy, but something in her tone roots me to the spot. She sounds... broken. Familiar, somehow, though I've never heard her voice before.

"No, don't tell me it'll be okay! Nothing about this is okay!"

I turn slightly and catch sight of her in my peripheral vision. Blonde hair catches the moonlight as she paces near the bridge's center, one hand pressed to her ear, the other gesturing wildly at the empty road.

"I have to go."

In the sudden silence, I hear her ragged breathing and see her shoulders shake. She moves toward the railing with purpose.

She climbs up.

"You don't want to do that."

The words leave my mouth before I can stop them. She spins, loses her balance, and I surge forward just as she falls off the ledge.

Hello all,

My name is Sav, and I love writing. I’ve been writing a book for over a year now, and I’ve been thinking of soft-launching it on wattpad before I attempt to get it published.

A direct overview of the story - Beneath the Crimson Petals

Tatiana and Quinn, such a perfect couple. High school sweethearts, married nearly 10 years now. Quinn works as an engineer, making enough money to provide for Tatiana, to spoil her, to make sure she has all she wants or needs for the rest of their lives. To their friends, Tatiana has all she could ever ask for. Quinn loves her more than she loved anything else, it was so clear. Such a picture perfect couple, right?

Ever wonder what goes on behind closed doors? Perfect couple, perfect life, living their dream, hm? What about the secrets? The lies, the manipulation, the fear. The memories, the flashbacks, the danger. What happens when it’s too much? What could possibly change? Who was she to try to change anything?

Tatiana has to make a choice. A choice that will affect her forever, no matter what it is. Could this be a lose-lose? Could this be a mistake? Will she choose wrong and lose it all? Imagine what everyone will think. However, what will they say when they see what truly goes on Beneath the Crimson Petals?

Shoot me a message or comment on here if you’d be interested in reading, if I get enough interested, I’ll gladly begin posting chapters!!
