The Wattys

Main

The Watty Awards is Wattpad’s longest-running annual event that seeks out, rewards, and uplifts the storytellers who choose to share their stories on Wattpad every year. We’re on the hunt for completed and ongoing stories with new categories like the Fan’s Choice Award!

The Wattys are a celebration of what it takes to tell stories, and this is your year. Winning entrants receive coveted opportunities, and the chance for their story to be read and enjoyed by the entire community and beyond. Join your Wattpad community in meeting your writing goals, pushing yourself, and seeing this Wattys season to the finish line.

Testimonials

This community, this experience, this award, they have all opened my eyes to not only abilities I didn’t know I had, but the potential for it to turn into something even more. Plus...how often do you get an award for work you do in your pyjamas?

Winning a Watty means acceptance. I'm sincerely grateful for the acceptance I've found here. To everyone who has befriended me, we're kindred spirits. Every time I open Wattpad, it feels like coming home.

It’s lovely recognition of a lifelong dream, and validation that I should keep attempting to improve and reach more people.
