This question is from @daniellegartner

Hey
I'm new to following you and I want to know how do you get your books lots of reads?

So when I joined wattpad (wow, that was a year ago!) I just joined for the books. But then a random person just messaged me to say hi. I responded, and we got to talking. She encouraged me to start writing a book, which at the time I named Ravenclaw. It definitely has changed since then (the name, some of the chapters I completely rewrote).

I remember a couple chapters in (maybe chapter 3? 4?) I hit 800 views. I was so happy, and I was literally jumping for joy. I think that was when my family started to think i was crazy XD.

And now that I'm almost to 2k views blows my mind and I am eternally thankful to all of you Lovelies, especially the people that vote and/or comment.

Geez, this is starting to sound like a lifestory XD. Back to your question. My dad always says it doesn't matter how many people read, vote, or comment on your story. It doesn't matter if your writing stinks, or that it's not popular. All that matters is that it's your story.

Are you writing for the people, or are you writing because you enjoy it?

Now, after that note, if you want to get your story noticed, first thing every reader notices is the cover and the title. The cover should be something pleasing to the eye, and the title should be the basic theme of your book. I first named my book Ravenclaw because I was going to put Jack in the same house Elsa is in. But when I thought about it, it didn't really make sense. So I put Jack in Slytherin, and I renamed the book Glacius, which fit so much better, and that's when the views started to go up. **I make my own covers, so if you like them then go check out my cover shop (shameless self-advertisment XD)**

Okie dokie, this one was really long . . . if you want actual good advice, try checking out some books dedicated to this kind of stuff.

Hope this helped you! I'm gonna go now . . . make sure to comment your questions! *runs away*
