YWW Official Blog

Hiiiiiiiiiiiiiii 🥺💅 Who missed me? Wait. Wait. No, seriously. Who. Missed. Me. Because I actually doubt any of you missed me at all 😩. I don’t even think you people remember me 😭. Like—no one said anything like: "Ah! What happened to our blogger?" "Why haven't we received any blog post 😞?" Not even a “We miss your chaos 😔.” Honestly, I’ve come to one conclusion: You do not love me. But since I’m a girl of drama and flair 😌, Let’s have a little Bridgerton flashback, shall we? ME (gripping the banister of a grand staircase): “I have heard that you wish I had not come, that you want me to go, that you do not want to see me. What I have not heard… is that you do not love me.” ME (collapsing onto a fainting couch): “I have been suffering 😩, alone 😭, and believing I am a failure 😔as a blogger, as your Yours Truly 💔because you forget me, like I’m some bad subplot in Season 3. But today, quite suddenly… it occurred to me— Maybe you ...

Hey besties! 👋 It’s been a hot minute since I wrote a blog post, and honestly? I missed it. 😩💅 The drama. The emojis. The absolutely unnecessary metaphors. But today… I return with ✨ sparkles, awards, and chaos ✨— just how I like it. Because guess what? 💥 The Opal Awards are officially OPEN! 💥 (Yes, scream. I’ll wait.) --- 💎 What Are The Opal Awards? The Opal Awards are hosted by YWW – Young Wattpad Writers, the legendary writing community where you’ve laughed, cried, trauma-dumped (in fiction form), and met your Internet besties. This award is our love letter 💌 to all the talented, passionate, lowkey unhinged creatives in our corner of Wattpad. It’s for the ones who stay up until 3AM editing Chapter 12 like their life depends on it. You deserve to shine — and now, you literally can. Like an opal. A white fiery one. With orange vibes. Don’t overthink it. 😌✨ --- 🌸 Why Should You Enter? Oh, I’m so glad you asked. Let me serve you some benefits like it’s a writers’ buffet: 🏆 Re...

After the 1-year anniversary celebration, we had some looking back to do. We are chaotic, fun, and outstandingly unique. But honestly, it seems we're losing the point. What happened to us supporting our books and giving writing tips? Stickers and memes took over. There’s nothing wrong with a little fun—we all need to laugh between writing plot twists and battling writer’s block. But somewhere between the chaos and the laughter, we’ve started to drift from why this community was created in the first place: to grow as writers, support each other’s stories, and help each other thrive both creatively and publicly. Some of our most active members have gone silent. New members are joining but wondering what they’ve walked into. And the core focus—our books—feels like background noise in a room where it should be center stage. So, what’s next? We're not shutting down the fun. (Relax, meme kings and queens, your crown is safe—for now.) But we are rebalancing. Starting this month, we...

Dear YWW, My Chaotic, Brilliant, Beautiful Fam, One year. One entire year. Can you believe it? Because I barely can—and I was there at the beginning! Yes, I was a pioneer. A founding voice. A glorious day-one legend... who dipped after two weeks like a confused side character in a Wattpad romance.  But plot twist—I came back! Five months later, a little ashamed, a little dramatic, and very ready to make a scene. And oh, what a comeback it’s been. From watching this community bloom into a vibrant garden of chaotic writers, late-night vent sessions, insane sprints, wholesome support, and memes that deserve awards... to being welcomed back like the prodigal writer I am—this journey has been nothing short of magical. And by magical, I mean emotional breakdowns over deadlines, bonding over heartbreaks, and writing articles that made people laugh and cry. A true writer's dream. YWW isn’t just a community. It’s home. A place where I can scream about plot holes, drop random stuff, and have...

AI: An Enemy, Friend, or Frenemy? Last Saturday, we dived into a hot topic that stirred up a lot of opinions in our community: "Is it right to use AI in writing, editing, or even to do the work of a writer?" When this question was raised, I couldn't help but reflect on how books were written in the past. Back then, if you weren’t fluent in English or lacked strong writing skills, writing a book was nearly impossible. Editors played a crucial role in refining an author's work, and they made a fortune doing it. But now, in this age of advancing technology, those editors might just be saying goodbye—because AI is taking over. AI-powered tools like Grammarly, Hemingway, and Proofreader AI are revolutionizing editing, making it easier and more accessible for writers. I personally use AI for editing, and it has been a game-changer. It's improved my writing greatly that sometimes I don't need AI to edit. But here’s where things get controversial—some writers are usin...

  Today is a day of double joy, triple excitement, and infinite reasons to throw confetti in the air (or at least, aggressively tap the heart button on our posts). First, let’s talk about a major milestone—drumroll, please!🥁 In just six months, the Young Wattpad Writers Official Instagram has crossed 300 followers! That’s right! Three. Hundred. Amazing. Supportive. Writing-Loving. Absolutely Incredible. Humans. Let’s put that into perspective: That’s 300 people who care about books, stories, and the chaos of being a writer. 300 people who tolerate our bookish memes and random 3 AM creative crises. 300 potential witnesses if one of us ever disappears into a plot hole and doesn’t return. We’re growing, we’re thriving, and at this rate, I’m convinced we’ll be hitting 1,000 followers before the year ends! That’s not a dream—that’s a spoiler. But wait, there’s more! Today, we also celebrate Ghana’s Independence Day! Shoutout to all our Ghanaian members, including those who proudly car...

15, Mimi’s Heart Bottom Street Mimi’s Heart, Lungs Centre City Mimi’s Inner Body 6th of March 2025 Dear YWW Community, (sniffles dramatically) 너무 너무 보고 싶어 😭 (I miss you guys soooo much!). Life has been so dull without you. I tried to write about my emotions, but all that came out was AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH! —which, if you think about it, is still a solid piece of writing. There are no more fun activities to write about, no exciting chaos to document, no memes to dissect. It’s just me… staring into the abyss… waiting for your return. (grabs a fistful of tissues and sobs uncontrollably) 😭😭😭 — One hour later (in SpongeBob narrator voice) — (sniffles) Okay, I’m back. I just needed a moment (or a hundred). I really miss you guys. I miss us. I miss the fun, the drama, the unhinged writing prompts, the late-night debates over comma placements. I can't wait for whatever is driving a wedge between us to be gone so we can reunite like a K-drama couple in slow motion. To those of you drowning...
