The Path of Time ★ [3] ✔ (EDITING)

Answers To Yo Bootiful Questions!

Another thing I loved writing in this series is the overshadowing. Dark Andi was the perfect tool for this and she turned out quite well. Coming up with her philosophical answers was hard, but I loved how they and she turned out. The chapters The Seeds of Evil and The Foreboding of a Deadly War in When Time Collides is definitely where she shines the most.

But I think my favourite part of writing this series are the chapter titles. Chapter titles are a real aesthetic for me. They're important. It's a place where my creativity shines. As a person that is deeply rooted in chapters with meaning, epic sounding chapter titles are what makes me love books more. So thanks to the original Percy Jackson books for getting me into doing it.

I love naming them and tying them into the chapter like Vision, Evolve, Chasing Jack, Ripper Street, No Strings On Me, Battle of New York, and Is The Elevator Worthy? 
I love giving them deep meanings like Rise Until Lambs Become Lions, Asunder, Architects of Destruction, Building the Perfect Beast, The Seeds of Evil, and A Time of Healing.
I love bringing comedy into play like Well, Sh-, Tesseract Bullcrap, Big Personalities Make The Best Arguments, End Game With Shawarma, A Very Hot Spa Day, King Stark's Knights of the Hexagon Table, and Chuck Norris Their Asses.

So if I honestly had to choose, then chapter titles win.

Question from MajesticalB:
Q. How did you start your Wattpad journey, and what steps led your works to be so well known and loved?

Well-known and loved? Not the words I would use, but I'm honoured you're using them. My lovely readers like you would use them constantly and I'm happy that I've garnered them, even though I'm not too sure if I deserve them. There are so many more authors that are more well-known then I am.

My Wattpad journey started in August 2015. I knew about Wattpad a few months earlier, but I don't know why I was putting off making an account. It wasn't that I was afraid to share my work, because I've always been pretty confident about my writing. When I joined, I strove to wrote only original work. My first fantasy story was pretty much a failure.

Refer to the second question on how this series came about.

A lot of what put me where I am is because of people like you; the beautiful readers. My journey to today was a long process, and it wasn't easy. It's easy to say that you'll just write for yourself, but after a while that feeling starts to weigh on your consciousness. You begin to feel pretty useless because no one is checking out your work. When you first start, always write for yourself. When you gain a following, definitely write for you but also for them as well. Use the resources available to elevate yourself. I used the Share Your Story threads a lot when I first started, but, truth be told, they don't work for everyone. It gave me a few readers, but not a lot, and I had to stay up until 5am on Mondays to be the first to post when it refreshed. I used book clubs as well, but they can be stressful if you've got a lot on your plate or you're given a book to read that's not in a genre you like. Use the threads to your advantage. Make friends there and some will follow you and check out your work. Be nice and polite on the threads and you'll get something out of it. I got dedications from friends using the threads and so do the same.

Probably the most important piece of advice I can give is to be patient. Not everyone gets big overnight. There's only one person I know that got big pretty much overnight that joined Wattpad a few months after me and I still don't know how she did it. Patience is key here. Write, write, write, use the resources available, and wait for the readers to come to you. They will.
