《How To: Get More Reads On Wattpad》How To Properly Edit
Advertisement
I don't know whether I have stressed the importance of grammar in this book but I'm sure every writer has been told that good grammar will attract readers. I don't need to make a whole chapter on that.
However, to get grammatically accurate chapters with no spelling mistakes or missing words, you have to proofread and edit effectively. If you don't know how to edit or proofread, maybe you need to rethink whether you are actually capable of writing a book seeing as this is one of the most important parts of writing any book.
But editing is boring and dull, so here's my tip on how to make things SO much easier and faster.
Download an app that turns text into speech and paste your chapter into the app. Then let it read out your chapter for you. This helps you notice your mistakes far easier than just reading through your chapter as you can hear when things don't sound quite right. This has saved me hours, and I live by this whenever I write now.
With perfect writing, you can attract any reader as they aren't put off by obvious mistakes and things like that.

Homeland
NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER -- In Cory Doctorow’s wildly successful Little Brother, young Marcus Yallow was arbitrarily detained and brutalized by the government in the wake of a terrorist attack on San Francisco—an experience that led him to become a leader of the whole movement of technologically clued-in teenagers, fighting back against the tyrannical security state.A few years later, California's economy collapses, but Marcus’s hacktivist past lands him a job as webmaster for a crusading politician who promises reform. Soon his former nemesis Masha emerges from the political underground to gift him with a thumbdrive containing a Wikileaks-style cable-dump of hard evidence of corporate and governmental perfidy. It’s incendiary stuff—and if Masha goes missing, Marcus is supposed to release it to the world. Then Marcus sees Masha being kidnapped by the same government agents who detained and tortured Marcus years earlier.Marcus can leak the archive Masha gave him—but he can’t admit to being the leaker, because that will cost his employer the election. He’s surrounded by friends who remember what he did a few years ago and regard him as a hacker hero. He can’t even attend a demonstration without being dragged onstage and handed a mike. He’s not at all sure that just dumping the archive onto the Internet, before he’s gone through its millions of words, is the right thing to do.Meanwhile, people are beginning to shadow him, people who look like they’re used to inflicting pain until they get the answers they want. Fast-moving, passionate, and as current as next week, Homeland is every bit the equal of Little Brother—a paean to activism, to courage, to the drive to make the world a better place.
