I really love the concept of Wattpad. Maybe that's because I'm a writer.
I love getting my writing out there to new audiences. I simply love putting it out there into the universe. Or the Verse as they used to say on the old TV show "Firefly" (yes I'm an undercover browncoat).
Wattpad is the one place where I can go that's not about selling or marketing or somebody trying to tell me how I should change my vision.
It's about having something to say and expressing it.
I used to write short stories in addition to writing screenplays, but stopped because there was no real venue for them. Now there is. You can write a short story or poem and just throw it out into the heavens without a drawn out process. It's great for spontaneous combustion creativity or machine gun inspiration.
The creative meetings I take here in Hollywood are almost never about creativity. Most of the time they're far from it.
Wattpad is about writers getting back to the business of being artists.
Thanks, Watty!
