Wassup y'all? It's been what? Months? Glad to see you still read this series. 😊
A lot has happened. I underwent and still undergoing a roller coaster of emotions. What helps me sane though is re-reading my series and criticizing my work. Naniniwala kasi ako na for you to be a good writer, you first need to satisfy yourself as a reader. After all, ikaw naman kasi ang first audience mo bago mo mai-publish 'yan to the world 'di ba?
So ayun, in relation to that, some of us might be aware of a recent breakdown of systems ni Wattpad that caused some stories to be deleted. It was wild, the group I was a member of was constantly updated about missing stories and lamenting authors. I knew it was sad and all for the author na mawalan ng story and ayoko siyang ma-experience because it will pain me. My stories has a piece of me kaya I can't let this works na mawala despite them not being perfect. So everyday I was checking my profile to see if I lost a story. Thankfully, I didn't. I thought I got exempted from the catastrophe. But I didn't.
I was re-reading Para-paraan and noticed an irregularity, I was wondering kung bakit parang kulang yung gawa ko. Parang tumalon. Then I looked at the chapters and that's where I found the answer. I lost chapters.
I lost chapters.
Instead of ranting like what others did, I immediately went into action and contacted the support team of Wattpad to help me get it back. They were responsive, I'll give them that. But they were not able to help me.
In fact, they were pointing the fingers to me as to why I lost the chapters. Sabi nila, baka daw kasi may ni-revise ako sa story that caused me to lose my chapters. I said no, I haven't touched the contents of this series for months already. But they just told me that it's already gone.
Gone.
I asked them assistance if there's a way to pull it out from the void. They said they're sorry but they're not able to assist me.
So ganun ganun na lang, I lost chapters. And I will never ever get them back.
So humihingi ako ng pasensya. Hindi na buo ang storyang ito. Trust me, I did all that I think I can do to put up the chapters again, but I failed. Nawala na siya. And it pains me. It pains me that I lost pieces to my puzzle and wala man lang akong magawa. What pains me more is hindi naman ako yung nakawala nung pieces.
So ayun, I am beyond apologetic kung napansin niyo na ang kakulangan. I am really sorry.
