This is a noob question but
how do I upload a non-blurry cover on Wattpad??
I've tried 512 x 800 px (what wattpad recommends), 654 x 1024 px (same ratio), random ratio, jpg, png, tiny file size, not tiny file size
And all of them look the same, which is a hot blurry mess 😭
Is there something v obvious I'm missing? 🙏

What are Subplots?
You’ve probably heard authors tell you that subplots are the perfect thing to add interest to your novel, but what exactly does that mean? Where do you add them? What should they do for the story?
It’s important to know that your story should have at least two subplots to keep it moving.There are mainly three different types of subplots, and each have their own purposes. After reading this, you’ll know which subplots your story needs!
1) Complicating Subplots - These subplots make the main goal harder to achieve. These types of subplots help with lengthening your story, developing your characters, and more. For example: In Percy Jackson: The Lightning Thief by Rick Riordan, the group is unable to fly to their destination, meaning they would lose precious time and possibly fail. This is actually a big subplot, because the book wouldn’t be the same if they had simply flown there.
2) Clarifying Subplots - These help give your readers insight on the main problem. It’s useful when your plot contains a lot of worldbuilding, politics, or other information that the reader would not otherwise see. An example of this are the many tests the assassin Selena Sardothien must go through to prove herself in The Throne of Glass Novellas by Sarah J. Maas. The tests show us the mechanics of their world, and how that will affect the main goal.
3) Contradicting Subplots - This type of subplot works against the main issue, and in turn shows how important/valuable solving the issue is. This is, in my opinion, the most important subplot, because it shows your reader the gravity of the situation and why the character needs to solve the conflict. In the Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins, Katniss’ morals are directly contradicting that of the Capitol’s. This forces her to change drastically, moving the story, developing her as a character, and showing how terrible the situation really is. This is sort of not a subplot, but I’m trying to use well-known books to help visualize this for you!
You can see that books almost always have more than two subplots, all revolving around the three types, just varying in size. Subplots can give your reader a break from where they are at, or completely change the direction of the story. So you better take a look at your novel and add in some subplots if you haven’t already! Happy writing!

Sentence Flow
I feel like public school is really bad at giving you the tools you need to write a good paragraph, so here are a few things to add to your author tool belt regarding sentence variety and flow! The first thing I’d like to get out of the way is the types of sentences.
Simple Sentence: A sentence with a subject and a predicate. For example: Sally (subject) went to the store. (predicate)
Compound Sentence: Two simple sentences joined with but, and, so, etc. For example: Sally went to the store and bought some cheese. We know this is a compound sentence because one, it has a joining word, and more importantly, this sentence can be broken down into two simple sentences. Sally went to the store. She bought some cheese.
Complex Sentence: A sentence that usually has a subordinate clause or subordinate conjunction to add extra detail. For example: Sally drove to the store while listening to music. Another form of this sentence can be: While listening to music, Sally drove to the store. Notice that I’ve put a comma after music because ‘while’ is a dependent clause, meaning it can’t stand on it’s own. While listening to music is a sentence fragment.
With all of these types, you can create a paragraph with a variety of sentences and make it sound more interesting. For example: Sally noticed that she had ran out of cheese. She decided to go to the store. She listened to music. She bought some cheese from the store.
Notice this sentence is choppy and repetitive, because I used only simple sentences. Now let’s see what this paragraph looks like with more sentence variety: Sally noticed that she was out of cheese, so she decided to go to the store. While listening to music, she picked out what cheese she wanted to buy. Then she left the store.
This paragraph is much more interesting now that we’ve used some sentence variety. I hope you can use this information to your advantage! I can’t wait to read your stories.
