《How To: Get More Reads On Wattpad》How To Properly Edit

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.

8 160Zoomchard: The Battle of Dominance(Cancelled)
The planet "Metalet" was wrecked by an episode of a destructive war that is still ongoing and had its 1000th anniversary. It was a war of dominance that got out of hand and became a struggling battle for life as many nations with the appearance of a humanoid robot divided by the colour of their eyes join aside the two nations that began this endless war; Green-eyed robots named Province of Conaire and yellow-eyed robots named The Tretse Federation. On the other hand, a fearless shopkeeper named Zoomchard had an average life, besides the fact that he was born with "The Unchosen Illness." An illness where the melanin coding failed and gave the eyes an appearance of a grey colour. It was a rare illness that only affected the 1% quadrillionth inhabitant planet. The illness never stopped him from living a normal lonely life with only one friend that saved him from the death of his parents that were bombed in their home city while Zoomchard explored the southern borders of Conaire. Zoomchard one day had contact with a friend who is a medic and both were excited to see each other again, but that never lasted like three days after the reunion party - Zoomchard's friend's home city was bombed and they went missing. This affected Zoomcharrd and it changed his mindset entirely, he went from a peaceful guy that hated the idea of revenge because it will ruin his mind to a guy that needed the most revenge he can grab hold of. So he was recruited for The Conaire Army and had his first-ever mission, the mission to save all the soldiers imprisoned behind enemy lines. This is a journey of a Rookie Soldier exploring the war while searching for a way to revenge his family and locate his missing friend.

8 186The devil's got my number
Dalton was always a nice place. Always had been. When that new couple moved here, we were all ecstatic. They were wealthy, but not arrogant, always willing to help out their neighbors. All around the perfect kind of migrant. They brought a child with them. Jacob. He was beautiful, just like his parents. He had his mother's beautiful hair, and his father's beautiful eyes. But he was different. He wasn't social, or nice, like his parents. He mainly kept to himself. Until one day he didn't. Strange tales, of the boy running around the neighborhood at night started to pop up. Of sacrificing children and dark rituals. The average person dismissed it as just that, rumors. But those of us that had seen the boy, knew the truth. His eyes were no longer the deep, vibrant color of his father. They were the green of rot, his skin the color of a corpse. The devil had taken the boy, and, like a disease, he was spreading his curse.
