ChickLit & Women's Fiction

Hello beautiful people!
          
          We are revamping our reading lists! To help us facilitate that, we will be closing our story submission forms for a short while as we set up our new lists. As soon as those forms are open again for story submissions we will let you know. We will also notify you when our guidebook has been updated with our new reading list submission guidelines.
          
          The purpose of the revamp is to enable us to build an extensive library that will allow readers to fully immerse themselves in all the Chicklit genre has to offer here on Wattpad, and showcase even more amazing writers and their stories.
          
          Thanks for your patience while we get this all sorted out.
