Wattpad Creator!

Posted on by Kassandra Carrillo

Now that we’re in October, I can finally reveal the good news. This was supposed to be done last weekend, but I didn’t get the media assets until this week.

I’m excited to be part of Wattpad’s Creators Program.

In general, nothing big has changed. I’m writing whenever I get the chance. I’ve made some progress in preparing for National Novel Writing Month and writing my current novel on Wattpad.

Social Media

I started my journey on Instagram. It’s a little slow, but I’ll post content for NaNoWriMo and my stories on Wattpad. I want to promote them, so maybe they’ll get considered/ get picked up by agencies. It’s a long shot, but I think it’s worth trying.

Reeling and Powering Through

Posted on by Kassandra Carrillo

Life has taken priority of my time at the moment and, because of that, I’ve been absent for a few days. Too much is going on and I haven’t found a way to balance it all. I thought I had a schedule set up but that fell through. Most of everything that I thought would happen has fallen through and I’m still reeling from that.

I know that not everything is going to go exactly as planned, but it still doesn’t feel good. I’m not discouraged because I don’t have time to be discouraged. While it is tough to keep powering through with no results, I just have to keep doing it. I’ll have to change the way I approach things and try to get better results.

On the plus side, during all of this, I have continued to write and post on my wattpad page. The sequel to The Vampire Princes goes to High School is going well. Speaking of which, I have decided to finish writing the sequel of The Vampire Prince for Camp NaNoWriMo in April. This doesn’t give me too much time to plan, but I already have a vague idea of what the rest of the book is about. All I have to do is put it on paper. Writing is probably the only thing that keeps me sane. Plus, I enjoy doing it.

Since April is only about two weeks away, I’ll be writing a mini-series of sorts for preparing for Camp NaNoWriMo. There will be six to seven posts in total and, through the month of April, I’ll post updates and new things I discovered with my writing and how well my planning worked. I’ve come to find that each time I participate, I have switch it up and discover other ways of writing 50,000 words in 30 days.

Overall, I’m excited about it. So, stay tuned and thanks for reading.
