I still don't see any black authors that have paid stories which isn't fair at all. That's why I rarely even come on here anymore. We have so many good books on here and it's just baffling that Wattpad won't acknowledge us.

It still disgusts me that all the paid books are from none people of color.... at least from what I see none are from people of color. That is very unfair... which is probably why I keep taking long breaks away from this app. We put out so many good books just for us to be overlooked.

I'm so tempted to rewrite Locust Lane. I dont think anyone would read it, but Amir is my favorite character I ever made.
-ShellyF
I miss this app and would like to get back into posting again but I probably won't get any views and comments like before.

@-ShellyF exactly! There aren’t many paid black authors and that’s who mostly have the good reads.

@talesbynixki that is so true, and it doesn't help that all these paid and advertised books are by white authors from what I see. But I will for sure read your story I know it's gonna be god

@-ShellyF It’s not cuz people are more picky now, and it’s even more difficult to get exposure now since they’ve gotten rid of the news feed. I actually just posted a story on here again just to see how it goes.

Hello will u ever finish the resistance
-ShellyF
I think ima take The Resistance down. I hate it.

To be honest, I fell out with this app so bad because I feel like it's really unfair. There are so many good books on here from black authors, yet most of the paid stories are white authors. I never been one of those people who got millions of views on my books, but there are a lot of black authors who do. Just ain't fair to me. So that's why I haven't even been motivated to finish The Resistance, and that's why I never rewrote Scarred on here.
-ShellyF
It's not fair at all. I still want to eventually get back into writing but that makes it really hard to on here.

That is so true. Wattpad has tried to be more “inclusive”, but it’s the same ol’ thing.
