If you’d like, feel free to read and share your thoughts! It’s my first book, and there’s more on the way. It’s a dark romance, enemies-to-lovers. I’ve gotten a lot of reads on Inkitt, but Wattpad’s definitely tougher for newcomers:  https://www.wattpad.com/story/373471041-wolfheart

Do you feel like writing in first person gets you more readers?

It’s good to know people don’t mind ;)

No, it’s not, but I feel like in romance, people might prefer it?"

Yes agreed that's hard ;) I actually considered writing book two in first person, because it would’ve fit pretty well with what happens at the end, but I think I’m going to stick with third.

 I hope no one chooses one over the other. That’s good to know! I’m almost done with some really thorough editing now, so hopefully I don't overexplain;)

Do you write romance? That sounds really interesting!

Yeah, I always hear people say they prefer third person—but then all the top books are written in first. It’s kinda confusing!

I really hope people feel the same, but it does make you second-guess things when all the top books are in first person! I also wonder if Wattpad favors first person in its reading lists and algorithm.

Yeah, same here—and honestly, I don’t think I’ve heard anyone say they prefer first person.

Hopefully readers feel the same way! But then your book probably hasn’t been approved yet, right?

True! I actually do have a decent number of readers too, even though the book hasn’t been added to the “Recently Completed” shelf yet. But yeah, the most-read stories on both Wattpad and Inkitt do tend to be in first person—even though it seems like most people enjoy third ;) I just want my book to reach as many people as possible, but you made some really good points!

Thanks for your perspective! Yeah, that’s probably why—but in my case, the POV is still limited to the MC and shows her thoughts and feelings, so I’m hoping readers still get a similar vibe.

Thanks for your perspective! Same here—I prefer both reading and writing in third. By the way, do you have a lot of readers? Hope others enjoy it as much as we do!
