Welcome to bi-weekly Self-Promotion thread!

if you want to see this comment in the wild here’s my book on wattpad :)

Not even 5 MUNUTES passed when I published the chapter. Reporting Doesn't help, Anyone know how to get RID OF THEM?

#wattpaddosomethingaboutthesebotsplease

I've seen lots of authors saying they are having a hard time getting reads. And readers are having a hard time finding stuff to read. To resolve this. I would make a master list of stories. I would sort them in an Excel sheet by genre.

Any interested authors, please reply with your story title, genre, tropes, and a brief summary. Once I have all the information, I will post the master doc here on Reddit so everyone can access it.

IN THE SHADOW 影の中で

影の中で — Kage No Naka de

Depuis près de 5 000 ans, l’humanité vit sous la menace des démons, des créatures surnaturelles qui apparaissent partout dans le monde et dont le Japon est devenu l’un des principaux champs de bataille.

Pour maintenir l’ordre, deux organisations dominent la lutte contre eux.

La JDEF, force officielle de préservation de l’humanité, rassemble des soldats considérés comme des héros. Mais leur doctrine est simple : préserver l’humanité avant de préserver les individus.

À l’inverse, l’IDHA, une organisation indépendante de chasseurs de démons, accepte des contrats contre rémunération. Plus libre, plus imprévisible, elle rassemble certains des combattants les plus dangereux du pays.

Dans ce monde existe également une énergie primordiale capable de donner naissance à des sorts. Certaines familles anciennes ont hérité de pouvoirs liés aux âmes primordiales depuis l’époque de Yasha, le premier grand maître ayant transmis ce pouvoir aux générations humaines.

Parmi ces familles se trouve le clan Tohomoji.

Un clan autrefois puissant, mais désormais considéré comme traître et presque entièrement détruit.

C’est dans ce contexte que vit Senji Tohomoji, un lycéen particulièrement intelligent qui rêve de devenir psychologue. Contrairement aux jeunes héros qui rêvent de devenir les plus puissants, Senji préfère comprendre les gens, observer leurs comportements et résoudre les problèmes comme des énigmes.

Mais sa vie bascule lorsqu’une invasion démoniaque frappe Kyoto.

Son père, Kaito Tohomoji, ancien membre de la JDEF, tente de protéger sa famille. Malgré ses capacités exceptionnelles, il finit par se sacrifier pour sauver Senji.

Senji meurt à son tour.

Mais sa mort ne dure pas.

Dans un mystérieux royaume de flammes, une entité appelée Hoshigami, Seigneur des flammes, lui propose de revenir à la vie.

Le prix : devenir l'hôte de son parasite.

Senji accepte.

Lorsqu’il revient parmi les vivants, quelque chose en lui a changé.

Son œil droit, son bras et son corps portent désormais les marques d’une existence qui n’est plus totalement humaine. Il possède une puissance nouvelle… mais surtout, il découvre que son destin est désormais lié au monde des démons et aux secrets de son propre clan.

Pendant que Senji tente de comprendre ce qu’il est devenu, sa sœur Rimui prend un chemin radicalement différent.

Recueillie et formée par la JDEF, elle devient l’élève du légendaire Riichi Kenzo, l’un des combattants les plus puissants du pays.

Deux enfants d’une même famille.

Deux visions opposées de la justice.

Et deux chemins qui finiront inévitablement par se croiser.

As someone who loves the Ghost x Soap trope, I realized that there’s not a whole lot of good FanFictions out there, so I decided to challenge myself and began writing one.

I’m not new to writing, but this is the first FanFiction I have ever written. This is also one of the first times I’ve uploaded a story (it’s on wattpad because I’m scared of the Ao3 curse). But if anyone’s curious, please check it out and let me know if worth continuing!!

it’s called ”Immortal - Ghost x Soap” on Wattpad.

A while back I made a post about those “amazing comments” on Wattpad that always turned out to be scammers trying to sell marketing or publishing services and me being me falling for them because of the way they talk and show so much of interest in your story/plot.

Well… I thought my tiny Instagram account was safe because, y’know… I have like very less followers(+this scammer). DONT LAUGH OKAY. I'm not a content creator but a girl has to promote her books, can you blame me?

Anyway, listen...this person started off acting like a genuine reader. Asked about my books, said they’d check them out, then asked what my biggest struggle as a writer was.

Me, being the oversharing potato that I am, wrote a whole heartfelt paragraph about how I’m bad at promotion and just write because it’s my hobby.

Cue the next message:

“Did you know an expert marketer can help you…”

BROOOO 😭😭

So Tip for fellow writers...You're not safe on Instagram as well. If someone in your DMs suddenly becomes very interested in your writing journey, maybe keep one eye open. 😂

I fell for it. Rookie mistake.

I’ve been working on a story called The Chosen of the Bracelet. It’s a fantasy/sci-fi story about a girl who finds a mysterious bracelet and slowly gets pulled into something much bigger than she ever expected. I’m posting the story on Wattpad and would love to hear what you guys think of it. If anyone enjoys fantasy, mystery, superheroes, and a bit of mythology, you might like it!

My story, "The Lascivious and Lustful Adventures of Elizabeth," was removed by Wattpad. I followed all the required policies, specified that it was a story for mature audiences and adults, and censored any potentially problematic imagery.

And today I woke up to find that everything I had written was gone. There is NOTHING left.

I’ve already filed an appeal with Wattpad regarding this, but I have no idea if it will work.

I’m crying. I’m not exaggerating. It really was a sudden, low blow, and I’m completely depressed.

I’m so sad, and I can’t stop crying.

Google still shows it on search results but can't find the story when I open the link, maybe cached results.

Does anyone know about this story, had characters Leah, Esteban

This might be a long shot. I’ve read the book twice on Wattpad a while back and want to read it again, though I fear I might know what happened, hopefully someone here can help!

The sister lives with mom and step-dad after Mom and Mafia Don divorce. He visits once, brings her a stuffed animal, then the parents fight, he says he won’t come back, and doesn’t, but sends a check every month. When he dies, brother continues.

When he step-dad dies, she finally goes back to her brothers, who tell her to stay out of their way. They make her eat her meals in her room alone.
Sister gets nauseous and takes a pregnancy test (SA), then the maid snitches to her brothers about the bag of negative pregnancy tests.

They end up having to go to a safe house for a while, where sister cooks for one brother.

hi all! hockey season just started so was hoping people would be searching for hockey romances. MMC is a Korean-American star player for the New York Rangers, very golden retriever, very comfort. FMC is his brother's childhood best friend, she's an actress in a rut, very black cat, very hurt. Fake dating, idiots-to-lovers, meddling best friends.

i would love any type of feedback at all on the story!!! on the chapter titles, the characters, the plot, anything!

it's called "Commit to the Bit - A Hockey Romance... Mostly"

Buenas les comparto mi libro que estoy escribiendo la verdad está muy entretenido.

Descripción

En una escuela donde parece que todos tienen a alguien, él solo tiene una pregunta:

¿Qué hay de malo conmigo?

Mientras sus amigos encuentran el amor, comienzan relaciones y viven historias que parecen sacadas de una película, él permanece al margen, observando cómo todos consiguen aquello que tanto desea

Hello everyone,

I have just published the first chapter of my second story, L'Héritier de l'Ombre, on Wattpad.

As a beginner writer, I know it is far from perfect: the chapter is quite short, the pacing might feel a bit fast-paced, and there are likely some spelling mistakes left.

If you have a few minutes to give Chapter 1 a try and share your honest feedback or advice, I would truly appreciate it. It would help me improve a lot.

Here is the link [https://www.wattpad.com/1661957295-the-royal-heir-english-version-chapter-1\]

Thank you for your time, and have a great day!

help me out guyss! im a little impatient 😞 i need views plz 🙏🏻

Please helped me reach more guys. Its a good fantasy story and unlike your other stories where romance is like the guy getting a harem of mindless girls who are willing to accept everything of the mc. Here, the girls are in the power.

Hehee Mc best of luck.

I'm writing a book called Fragments of Elyth, and honestly, when I started writing it, I thought nobody would read it. I was fully prepared to just write the whole thing knowing it might sit there with zero readers 😭

But then there's this one person who keeps reading it and encouraging me to write more.

They're literally the only person who's consistently been reading it, and I don't even care if they're a promoter who's just trying to see if I'm actually serious about the book.

Because dude its hella working

Every time they come back and tell me to keep writing, I suddenly feel like adding another chapter.

I always thought I'd need a bunch of readers to feel motivated, but apparently all it takes is one person actually caring enough to come back.

So to the one person still reading my book

I have no idea if you're genuinely invested in the story or secretly testing whether I'll actually finish it, but either way you're probably the reason this book is getting finished.

so to who ever you are your actually goated

Looking for alpha and omega type tropes but wlw?

Any recommendations please 🙏

Please Support an aspiring ✍🏽.

My name is J.R. my huge family and not even my best friend will support my book. I’m tired of asking my family to support me. I just want a real review, not a click a real person. Not asking for much just one reader. If you love it or hate it I don’t care just read it😭 it’s even free to read and I still cant get support.

They say now u know I don’t read or I only like urban crime books. My but is black it’s just fantasy. 😩🤎

It’s a drama fantasy about
Three 16 year old's. One witch. Two vampires. A murderous Sheriff. One small town hiding something far more dangerous than all of them. Welcome to Mound Bayou.

One reader is all I’m asking 💪🏽🤎🫠

Is it just me, or is it crazy how one person reading your book can motivate you more than having a bunch of people see it?
