《How To: Get More Reads On Wattpad》That Crucial First Chapter
Advertisement
The first chapter is the most important part of your book, it helps the reader decide if they want to read on or get off your book as fast as they can. If your first chapter sucks then the chances of people reading on, giving you more reads, is slim.
There are many ways to make your first chapter engrossing and interesting. Here are some ways to make sure people read on from that first chapter:
- start with action, make sure the reader is interested right from the start.
- no spelling mistakes or grammatical errors- the reader will be put off immediately
-introduce things briefly, don't spend ages explaining things as that will bore people. However don't be too vague
- don't make it too long or too short
- use your best writing, your best adjectives etc
What most writers find is that the first chapter of their book will have considerably more reads than the last chapter of the book because people base their opinions of a book on the first few chapters. Make sure that your first impression is a good one.

Reminiscence
My website: https://putiancom.wordpress.com This is a short story about revenge or something along the lines. (This is my first story ever written so please go ham at criticising my work.) Death. It is a form of punishment or torture. And can be also be a form of salvation. Ultimately, it forms different perspectives depending on the beholder itself and on how the beholder take it as. Life. A point in time where finding your purpose. Purpose, of life itself and experience its flow, either epiphany or hell. Death. It is an end. A point of no return. It also makes the beholder feel free, breaking away from the chain of life. It makes the beholder recollect and reflect when crossing the boundary between life and death. Boundaries. A place where a path will ultimately, be chosen with or without consideration in the decision, free. . . . A place where recounting life, take it as a feeling. The joys and sorrow accumulated, playing back, making the beholder reexperience life. "Reminiscing."
