sometimes posting on Wattpad and blows. I mean, I love it when i get honest (adult) readers but most of the time I think they run a little young. Its tough getting/gaining an audience. I want more reads and more feedback so I can become a better writer. When you read people's stories and comment its hard to have them return the favor. Sometimes that "dog-eat-dog-world" mentality is even relevant in the online writing world. Everyone wants their stuff read; everyone wants to be noticed. I know I am not alone in that one. I just want consistency, thats all. haha.

ALSO...My first chapter is 7 pages, and the readers think that its too long. Don't we read real books anymore? To be honest, in the finished product the first chapter will be a combination of the first two that are posted on wattpad. Its weird to have a fear of editing your first chapter by breaking up paragraphs because you are worried it will add page length. Woe is the life of a wattpad writer. ugh.

Ok, I am done ranting.
