《How To: Get More Reads On Wattpad》Milestones
Advertisement
So in the last chapter I touched upon these tings called milestones which are basically like achievements. The more reads you gain, the quicker it is to gain EVEN MORE readers. In this chapter I'll go through the different milestones and what you should expect at each one.
10 reads- your book is probably new to this site and the people reading are those that look at the 'What's New' part of categories. Or your a writer who already has fans who read all your work.
100 reads- your book is still unnoticed, however you have a few loyal readers. Just wait my friend, just wait.
500 reads- wow you got here fast! See I told you- wait! You're halfway to 1k, but that number seems a long way away doesn't it? Now you have a solid set of readers, all of whom you kind of know.
1,000 reads- you did it! You're here! But when you hit 1k, you'll realise that rather that competing against books with reads in the range of 0-1000 reads you're now competing with people with reads up to the 20,000. Your running with the bigger dogs, and so far your trailing at the back.
5,000 reads- wait, weren't you on 4k like a week ago? Oh that's right, its easier to gain reads when you have higher read counts because your book is probably gaining much more coverage as it has more readers.
10,000 - you're getting pretty big now aren't you? Just don't forget where you came from, and remember that your still only running in the middle of this big race known as Wattpad.
500,000 reads- you're halfway to a million, this is getting insane! You have fans, and comments flood in everyday.
1,000,000- you made it, your running close to the front. Hey look, there's some of the big writers on this site. You've struck gold my friend, you're extremely lucky.
None of my books have ever got to the millions, so I'm just kinda guessing there. But this is just kinda what to expect and the key thing is to just wait and see!

The Verant Chronicles - Book One
The once powerful Verant Empire had been brought to its knees after seven years of civil war. The war maybe over, a new emperor maybe at the helm, but the empire remains broken. Deadly plagues, encroaching monsters, divided political loyalties only scratch the surface of the problems the empire now faces. Highwaymen make the roads unsafe, powerful wizards go unchecked and goblin hordes threaten local towns and villages. Elwin doesn’t want to spend his days as a farmer and dreams of adventure. He, his brother Rith, best friend Emerson and adopted cousin Anna, decide to go out into this world as adventurers hoping to seek fame and fortune just like in the books they read. The empire is at a crossroads as Elwin and his friends experience the aftermath of the war, they must come to terms with what it means to live in the Verant Empire as one of it's citizens. It all begins with an intriguing map sewn into cloth, written in a strange language and depicting a place that doesn’t seem to exist. Elwin and his friends decide to go to the capital city to join the adventurer’s guild and find someone who can translate the map and hopeful recognize the locations depicted. Along the way they encounter lizard creatures, goblins, former soldiers, a bard, druid and a powerful wizard who has his own eye on the map. They meet new friends and create deadly enemies. From great plains to a bustling metropolis, to a town devastated by an earthquake, their world of Gaia has a gritty realism to it and the empire is only a small part of a much large realm. It is a Romanesque world teetering on a renaissance in which Gods, gunpowder, armored knights, griffin riders and magic coexist uneasily. Elwin and his companions drink, they swear, they have sexual encounters, they make mistakes and face serious moral dilemmas at every turn. Planned out to be 30+ chapters in total including a prologue and epilogue. Chapters will be released about twice a week when possible.

I Don't (August Alsina)
"Just tell me you love me, man." He said. I thought about and after what he said, my love for him died. There was no love. He wasn't the same man I fell in love with. He was different. He changed and I didn't love this new guy in front of me. "I can't." I said. He looked at me, tears in his eyes. "Don't do this, man. You love me, baybeh. I know you do."I bit my lip, trying hard not to cry in front of him. "August," I gulped, cursing myself because the tears I said I wouldn't shed, were shedding. "I don't love you anymore. I don't."
