Worthy Of Publishing

Hola!

In this post/blog/whatever you want to call it, I will introduce you to Worthy of Publishing. So, this website isn't very well known, but it is still pretty good. 


When I first started on this website, I wasn't very sure about it. But it's mainly the support I received when I published my first book that got me interested in it.

Unfortunately, the downfall of this website is the layout. I feel like it could be more spaced out, I can't really put a finger on it. I love the rest of it, but the layout really gets to me. I have to admit, I'm a bit of a grammar nazi and I love design, so if I see something with typos and laid out badly, that's getting edited without a second thought. 

I'm not saying the grammar is bad, just the layout. Apart from that, I love this website and definitely recommend this to you readers. Unfortunately, there is no app for this which makes me very sad :(.

Once again, if you want to check me out (as per usual) my name is Lidsters so have fun exploring!

Wattpad

Bonjour!

So, I'm back! If this is the first post you have read from me, then welcome, and if not, then hi again! I've decided I'm going to introduce you all to Wattpad. 




Wattpad is brilliant and I spend the majority of my life on there, so much so that I almost get caught in school (I live in England and we aren't allowed phones in school). 

Basically, you can read other people's stories on there, and trust me, there are thousands. However, as I continually read and have no social life, I've pretty much finished all of the books from my favourite genres. Luckily for me, there are loads of people with the same interests so new books pop up when I need them. 

If you decide to publish your own book, I can assure you that you will receive support. Yes, the world isn't perfect which means that there are some haters out there but I've never had one comment on my stories and people usually argue in your defense. 

I highly recommend you try out the website because, honestly, it's amazing and my escape from reality.

You can download the app on your phone so you can take it with you anywhere, and you can also read books without wifi and cellular. However, if you are checking out a new book then you need wifi. Other then that, if the book is in your library, you can read it whenever.

So that's all from me, and I hope you check it out, if you haven't already. If you have an account follow me! My name is Lidsters and I'll happily follow back and maybe read one of your stories.

My Own Books

Hi!

Thanks for clicking onto my blog, and I hope you enjoy what I write. Today I wanna write about my own stories that I have written.


If you haven't already heard of them, I publish my books on Wattpad and Worthy Of Publishing (awesome websites, check them out!) I get a lot of support from other people and it really encourages my to write. True, I haven't yet finished writing a whole book yet, but oh well! I love the ones I have written and have received many words of encouragement.
This is so cute!

All of my books contain romance (sorry for those that hate that genre) and mainly fantasy (werewolves/witches/vampires) but none of that sparkly stuff like in Twilight. Some are also boyxboy (gay)as it's adorable and I'm bisexual myself so I know the feeling. 

There are two books which I want to "advertise" and talk about. First one is Illegally Intelligent

I first started writing this because I had watched Divergent and read the Maze Runner. To be honest, the book isn't set in the same era as those two, it's set in modern day (as are all but one of my books)but it revolves around something happening in the main characters brain, making it more evolved and special to the people around them. 

So this is my synopsis: My name is Charlotte Haywood and I'm illegally intelligent. It may sound cocky, but it's true. My parents sold me off to an illegal science experiment when I was three years old, because they needed the money. I know, what great parents I had! Thanks to the agents the science team were working with, I was announced dead and my records wiped from the system. Everyone but the team and my parents know that I am still alive.
The experiments that the Ultimate Knowledge Federation (or UKF, as they like to be called) ran on me caused a malfunction in my brain that wasn't planned. Now, I have the ability to detect the smallest things that even police would miss. I have the knowledge that no-one else in this world can possess and it's made me a weapon. The UKF has decided to use me to catch criminals or be a, as some people call it, a spy. I now have to go, undetected, to Fayfell Academy in England as a student to catch some drug dealers that have escaped the police about 50 times. I am illegally intelligent and this is my story...

I hope that it's catchy and may encourage some of you to read it but I'm proud of what I have written so far, and won't let others dissuade me.

I have't had any comments from this one, mainly because I posted it about 5 minutes before I started writing this. But my friends who have read the draft version like it, and so does my aunt! So yay!

Anyway, before you get bored, here is my second book, The Secrets Behind The Covers.

Synopsis: Innocent Allie Gold is a book nerd. Her passion for reading and writing is inspirational and her creative imagination ensures a good read. 
When quiet Ben Ole moves to her school and takes a special interest in her, she tries to shy away but to no avail. However, she has secrets that she doesn't want revealed are soon unveiled when Ben follows her home one night. 
What will Ben think of the secrets he finds out and will he look at her the same way? Find out in The Secrets Behind the Covers.

I like what I have done with this book, because I'm a nerd/badboy romantic. I love those stories.

However, I do have a few comments on this one, that really made my day:

Wow, that was heartwarming
The prologue is intriguing and makes me want to know more about Allie
By  Liz Dao

Amazing, keep it up!
By  Jay Parker

So thanks to those guys, I had my confidence boosted!

Anyway, you guys are free to check out those books. My name is Lidsters on pretty much every account I have (except insta ;)) so yeah!

Thanks again for reading and I hope you enjoy my books if you want to check them out! 

Keep reading!
