In April 2013, Anna started to write and published ”After” one chapter at a time on Wattpad.

”I started reading on Wattpad and kind of felt like I had read everything, which obviously I didn’t, but I was just looking for something I couldn’t find,” Anna said in an interview with BuzzFeed in April 2019. She added: ”And then I thought that I would just entertain myself and write something. So, I wrote a chapter and then just kept going and going.”

Todd’s writing of the novel was inspired by the English-Irish pop boy band One Direction.

The series follows the life of Tessa Young, a high school graduate, as she embarks on her new college life at Washington State University.

“After” was written almost entirely from Anna’s cell phone.

By the time Anna wrote Chapter 90 (from 295 chapters), her novel had been read over 1 million times on Wattpad. Currently, it has been read over 1.9 billion times.

”It’s such a safe and free place for creatives, and without it, I wouldn’t have published my work,” Anna told The Hindu about Wattpad.
