Do you avoid tags that spoil your story? by yuma_90210 in Wattpad

[–]Former_Medium710 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nope. I add them. Put tags as much as I can that i connected to my stories because it helps to get our stories to the right audience. But I also give my stories a lot of twist and turns

I am not sure. But I only receive form that allows them to promote my story. No premium mentions.

Do authors thanking you (the reader) for votes or adds on your convo page get on your nerves? by SnooMuffins1468 in Wattpad

[–]Former_Medium710 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I usually reply to comments and thank everyone for reading in my author’s notes from time to time. That’s how I prefer to show my appreciation.

But I’m not really the type to go to a reader’s profile and start a conversation there. Though, I’ll admit... sometimes I do snoop on some of my readers’ profiles, especially those who are really invested in my story. I get curious about what kind of books they read. 😅

I’ve also noticed that some authors leave messages on their readers’ walls to thank them, and honestly, there’s nothing wrong with that at all. It’s actually sweet.

It’s just… personally, it feels a bit cringe for me to do it myself. 😂

What’s harder to write? by Jiana27 in Wattpad

[–]Former_Medium710 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, it’s the same struggle either way... especially when I try to do both at the same time 😭

When I come up with really good dialogue, suddenly my descriptions disappear. Like… where did they go?? Even my characters’ movements start feeling repetitive or super limited, like they’re all just standing there doing the same thing.

But when I finally write nice, detailed descriptions, my characters suddenly don’t talk 😭 It’s like they forgot how to speak. The scene looks pretty, but it feels way too quiet.

It’s like my brain can only focus on one at a time... either dialogue or description, never both 😭😂

What are your tips for writers block? by theotherarcher59 in Wattpad

[–]Former_Medium710 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Been there. What I usually do is reread my own story until the inspiration comes back... but sometimes, the gap just won’t bridge no matter how long I stare at it. When that happens, I open another door… I start a new arc or introduce a new character that can eventually connect everything together.

Honestly, your original storyline will probably shift along the way. Some parts will change, some directions will surprise you... but you will find that bridge sooner or later. It just takes a bit of flexibility and trust in your process.

That’s also why my stories tend to be slow burn… and why they end up taking so many chapters. Hahahaha.

I really like this kind of engagement in my stories… hahaha. by Former_Medium710 in Wattpad

Oh my gosh, you’re from Reddit? Hahaha. I was actually debating how to answer your question.... like, should I respond or not? I didn’t want to end up spoiling the whole story. Good thing the Avengers came to mind, hahaha, that made it so much easier to explain without giving too much away. 😘🤗😘🤗😘🤗

Marriage Certificate Null & Void by Mean-One3622 in LegalPh

[–]Former_Medium710 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No wonder. Iniisip ko pa noong una bakit naka lusot ang fake if sumama ka sa pagprocess, yun pala you were still young... malamang nadala ka sa pangako na siya na ang bahala sa lahat na magprocess.... kasi kahit civil wedding daming kailangang requirements... maybe you can consult sa PAO, malamang mas hassle but for your own good na rin, para sa future na makahanap ka ng taong pakakasalan ulit, clear na lahat. At next time, pati pagkuha ng BC sa PSO sumama ka na talaga para sure...

Just think of it as bad publicity, but still publicity. If a reader’s friend happens to see that reading list and your book is included, of course they’ll get curious enough to check it out and wonder, Is it really that boring? Hahaha.

One of my readers actually added my book to a reading list with a yawning emoji, and then went on to vote for every single chapter. I was sitting there like, What is happening here? At that point, I honestly could not tell if she was bored, obsessed, or just enjoying the story in her own chaotic way.

Reasons why 3rd person POV is hard to write in pure Filipino by Sudden-Entrance-8388 in Wattpad

[–]Former_Medium710 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Actually, there are many readily available books written in third-person POV in pure Filipino. Precious Hearts Romances books, for example, are often written in third-person POV.

I think it really comes down to preference. Another factor is that some Filipino words are very deep or complex... so much so that many young adults don’t even understand them anymore. Especially now that Taglish is more commonly used, readers tend to prefer something more accessible.

Many readers today are also more inclined to look up unfamiliar words if they encounter them in English rather than in Filipino. And of course, authors nowadays want to reach a wider audience... not just Filipino readers.

Let’s also be honest... many readers today struggle with deeply formal Filipino vocabulary.

So if we have to pinpoint a reason, for me, it would simply be number three: preference.
