This annual contest closes August 31st of each year. If you really want to impress the masses, enter your piece in the “Wattys.” It’s a grand award platform that anyone can enter. In essence, the contests can be one hell of a bonus to marketing yourself as a writer. The more you get your name out to the public, the more recognizable you become when you submit a novel for publication at a paying publishing house. However, the public recognition of winning may be ideal if you’re an aspiring new author. Otherwise, there may be copyright infringement lawsuits. The owners of the website have to be careful when it comes to prizes in such contests. One of the examples on the site is what would happen if Voldemort, the villain from Harry Potter, would have taken over. For example, I am currently looking at a contest centered around fan-fiction and changing how a character would react in different situations. Wattpad offers a wide range of contests covering different aspects. This avoids legal issues that arise from working on copyrighted material. I believe this is because there is no money to be made from the content. In fact, nearly every genre of storytelling is available for virtually anyone to read. With Wattpad, I can write any fan-fiction I want. When I was a teenager, I tried very hard to get published by TSR, now Wizards of the Coast, for my stories regarding the Dungeons and Dragons realm of Ravenloft.Īlas, I was never published. One of the things I’ve always wanted to do was write fan-fiction regarding the games and movies I love. Here are eight of the most engaging benefits I have found of this publishing system. It can help you flex your literary muscles and discover whether you have a career as an author or not.
That is one of the things I love about Wattpad. It takes a great deal of work and effort on your behalf to succeed. Not everyone can jump into a publishing house and become an instant New York Times Best Seller. Whatever path they choose, it’s clear that things will never be the same.Success is Limited By Effort Why Should You Use Wattpad as a New Author? Tessa and Hardin desire a life together, but they must decide what they’re willing to sacrifice and what it means to truly love someone.
Tessa has never felt so intensely about another person, but she’s exhausted by the neverending cycle of jealousy, anger, and forgiveness. Despite their disagreements and the unexpected twists thrown their way, the passion between Tessa and Hardin burns hotter than ever. Kimberly and Christian welcome Tessa into their home, and some surprising news sends Hardin back to England for a visit, with Tessa close behind. Tessa and Hardin each turn to their friend Landon for advice before he sets off for New York. Though he longs to re-establish a connection with his daughter, he winds up bonding more with Hardin, who shares his love for Tessa-along with his love for a strong drink.
Meanwhile, Tessa’s father returns after a nine-year absence. Though she begs Hardin to come with her, he resists and offers an alternative: to move to London, where they can build a future together.
Tessa graduates from college and prepares to move to Seattle for her dream job at Vance Publishing. Tessa and Hardin have endured so much during their relationship, but now they face some of the biggest changes and challenges of their lives.
