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.

Each year, the Wattys celebrate the most creative, imaginative, and dedicated storytellers on Wattpad. This year, we’re calling on writers to submit Completed stories in English, Spanish, Filipino, and Portuguese. It’s time to wrap up those masterpieces, step into the spotlight, and share your work with the world.

By submitting your story, you could unlock exclusive opportunities with Wattpad, gain recognition for your hard work, and take your writing career to the next level. The Watty Awards could be the breakthrough you’re waiting for, so why wait?

Let’s make this season unforgettable. The Watty Awards officially opens for submissions on July 15, 2025. Now’s your time to get your story ready to shine!

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.
