You are on your own journey as a writer.

There are markers of where you’ve been—your first 100 reads, your first finished story. The day you ditch your writer’s block.

Becoming a Wattpad Star marks another important milestone on that journey. It recognizes your lasting impact among Wattpad’s best and brightest, and your potential as a lifelong storyteller.

When you become a Wattpad Star, you’ll discover unique opportunities to harness your own potential as a writer, with tips & resources designed to help you maximize and amplify your successes. You’ll also join a community of fellow Stars—a place to collaborate and commiserate with writers who are on their own journey.

Wattpad Stars. Where writers thrive.

What does the program offer?

By becoming a Star, you’ll have access to a variety of exciting perks, including:

• Online hangouts and interaction with members of HQ in an exclusive group within Wattpad’s Community
• On and off platform promotion, including on our official Wattpad Stars profile and on Wattpad’s social media
• Educational resources and an exclusive newsletter to help you navigate your writing journey
