The Watty Awards are our annual celebration of the most loved stories by the community. This year over $20,000 will be given out in prizes across a wide range of categories!
So, can you finish a story within a year? Take the challenge and enter the 2012 Awards. Everyone who participates has a chance to win! All showcase finalists plus 50 lucky winners will receive Limited Edition Watty Awards t-shirts.
Based on the success of last year’s awards and your valuable feedback, we’re happy to announce some exciting new information about the 2012 Watty Awards! Complete details will be posted in June 2012, but for now check out http://www.wattpad.com/watty to get started!
I’m actually really excited. The Watty Awards is like The Grammys.
Oh! At least they’re nice enough to leave a flash game for us to play in the meantime.
Check out Wattpad’s official podcast channel! We talk about stories we love, interview writers, trends, and what’s happening in Wattpad HQ.
Listen to our discussion with various writers about Steampunk, writing inspirations, love stories, and more.
Books and cupcakes. Two of my favourite things rolled into one.
I have not updated this blog for a while and I am terribly sorry. The reason for this is because I have been procrastinating a lot and if I could give you any advice right now, it’s “Don’t procrastinate! Ever.” Because all that laziness will come bite you right behind after. Stop saying you’ll do it tomorrow because I bet you said that yesterday too.
So, I suggest you start making that exam timetable and start revising for your exams - if you have any, that is.
After all your exams, you will have plenty of time to update your stories and read on Wattpad. I promise!
I’m quite happy that I got to update one of my stories yesterday for the longest time of not updating. It took me nearly a month to update and I usually update after a week.
So, get off that chair and start doing something!
Don’t forget to continue supporting Wattpad in the very first Canadian StartUp Awards!

Hello. For the past four months I have been regretting my decision to not talk to you on the ferry and now I’ve decided to do something about it. It was August 8th when we first saw each other on the express bus out of Vancouver to horseshoe bay. We both took the ferry to Departure bay. Halfway through the trip the boat stopped for a safety drill and we saw each other on the upper deck. You were taking pictures and then leaned on the rail beside me. As much as I wanted to, I never said anything, and I’ve never regretted anything more than that. I think you are the most beautiful girl I’ve ever seen and I would very much like to meet you.
If you are her, Email me at: ferrygirlsearch@gmail.com
Reblog this to help me find her. Please.
This is really cute and I hope this guy finds the ferry girl soon! This is very inspiring. Maybe our Wattpad writers could write something similar to what this guy is going through right now. :)
