Hello fellow readers and writers!! 
          	I am jumping on here today to announce to everyone that I have decided to work with another app for my books to try it out. This company is called Weink, and it is a downloadable app just like Wattpad; the only difference is Weink actually cares about its authors! For having my books read, I get a commission, but the app for readers is COMPLETELY FREE (with ads). On Wattpad, you have to watch ads between chapters anyway, but on Weink, those ads actually go toward supporting indie authors. My books will still be on Wattpad, but only the first half of the book, just as it's been for my published books anyway. But I am going to try and keep the ENTIRE book on Weink, with the exception of bonus epilogues and chapters that Amazon exclusive. I would love for all my followers to check out Weink and give it a try, Wattpad unfortunately just isn't boosting my books anymore and I have never earned a dime here. Again, Weink is FREE for readers and the ads go toward you favorite authors' commissions! 
          	Please please please give this some thought and head on over there! You can find me on Weink under the same username I have here, or my Author pen name: Teyah Leigh. Thanks for all the support everyone!

@Cavalier_Spaniel I actually still use the windows wattpad app even though wattpad quit supporting or offering it..i keep a zip file on the google drive where i can recover it. is it fully functional like it used to be? NO. its one of the reason i started creating my multiple  reading list.  It wasn't fun creating some of them, because one particular author i loved before he died had written over 50 books. It can be hard to find some of books in my library with going through the complete logout and shut down ad restart and re-login and the library only stays the first time till you close the app. I do hate that some will never be finished but i like re-reading a lot of his stories. The library (with too many books) will work the first time (after a complete logoff and close and re-opening the app)

@T_Raya totally get that. And I do know they are a newer company and actively working to make the experience better for all! Wattpad has been around for a very long time and is huge. Weink is young and small so I’m hoping as they get bigger they iron out some of these quirks! My announcement was for awareness of the new app for those it works great for! For some it may not be the best option—but that’s why there’s so many options these days like Inknitt, kindle, Wattpad, etc. so many reading apps and websites have popped up over the years and I’m just promoting one that actually compensates for an author’s work. My books will still be on Wattpad, just not the full length of the novel, and I may not be able to keep the full novel on Weink forever either, this is just a start for me too. Of course, my favorite option is when my readers get my books on Amazon—paperback or ebook (and Kindle ebooks are great for those who struggle seeing and reading paperback books because they let you manipulate the text size and color!). Thanks for your comment and I wish there was more I could do to help your specific situation

@Cavalier_Spaniel but here's the thing i use a windows table since it is roughly the same size as a piece of paper and great for reading. My eye's ain't as young as they used to be. I tried reading a regular book recently and that was not easy. Thankfully the author also had the digital versions. i looked at the portal in windows and as you say it is predominantly for the authors. i installed the adroid on my tiny cell phone and tried to add the various things for favorite genere's but it didn't seem very flexible (only seem to take one at a time and not more than one, of course i may have missed something when trying to my gene selections. I like to be able to read with out have the screen inches from my face.

Hi, I was thinking about trying other apps for writing. Although Wattpad is convenient for me I just write as a hobby on here so it’s never been about making money. It would be nice to earn from it too. Do you have to pay as an author?

Cavalier_Spaniel

The only thing is unlike wattpad, the cover you use has to be owned/with rights by you. You can’t pull anything off the internet like you can use on wattpad.

Nope! No payment required. And I was totally in the same boat as you when I started and I’m glad it was like that for me. It was a hobby and not about money—and it’s still not about money, but it is nice to earn something for what you’ve created while still being protected. The company is solely an app to prevent copy/paste to protect the authors’ creations

Hey everyone! This is just a friendly reminder that because Wattpad no longer allows Direct Messaging, I do have a public Instagram account! There, I will do my best to respond to any messages and comments, and this is where nearly all of my updates will be focused on going forward! You all have supported me on here for so many years and it would mean so much to me if that support is carried over to other platforms such as Instagram and Goodreads and even in Amazon reviews. These little comments and follows really boost the algorithm to help with marketing and getting my art shared. 
          
          I am still working on book 4 and those chapters will be posted here for a while before the book becomes Amazon exclusive, just as the other three—you know the drill ;) 
          
          Feel free to message me regarding updates, book plots, or questions anytime! I also still periodically check this message board <3

Is Breaking the Silence still on Amazon? I can’t find it and I’m not able to copy the link. I’ve enjoyed your books for years and always end up rereading all of them every couple years 

Cavalier_Spaniel

@skayweeb I’ll announce on my page when it’s there! Hopefully no later than a year!

Yayyy ok, I will  check every one in a while to see if the 4th book is published! :)

Yes! Books 1-3 are already published on Amazon! Breaking the Silence, Shadows of the Past, Hidden Fox. And I’m working on the fourth one! Thanks for your support, you readers make this worth it!! <3

I have read your book “Hidden fox” on wattpad a couple of years ago. Now I just but it from Amazon so I could reread it. But I found that a part was missing. The part where it shows what she and Kallie went through after they escaped but before she lost consciousness. 

Cavalier_Spaniel

The published version had a lot changed and added and removed and edited to what it became now. I decided that that part wasn’t needed anymore and instead I have a bonus chapter available that includes what happened to Kallie after the escape. :)

I am posting the new version of Hunted today!! I’ve been working on it for a while now and while it’s still not complete, there is enough for people to read and comment on and enjoy for the time being :) 
          I am working on the new version to become ready to publish and fit into the rest of the series (Breaking the Silence, Shadows of the Past, Hidden Fox).  
          
          I know there have been a lot of questions regarding Hunted and Blind and Broken throughout the last few years. I’m still unsure what’s going to happen with B&B but Hunted is for sure being incorporated into my main werewolf series to be published now! Updates will happen as I write the chapters. Sometimes this is in a week, sometimes it’s longer because I’m currently finishing up my bachelor’s degree. 18 chapters have been posted, and I’m working on the 19th. :)
          
          Happy reading!!!!

@Cavalier_Spaniel I still need to work on a lot of your stuff but I'm excited!

Don’t forget!! Hidden Fox is out and has joined the ranks of Amazon with its precursors Breaking the Silence and Shadows of the Past!  Run to Amazon and grab your copy!! Also this is a reminder that the link to my Instagram account is in my bio, and I highly recommend (and appreciate) a follow so you guys can be as updated as possible! I will post more detailed updates on there in both post and story forms much more frequently than I do here :) 

Cavalier_Spaniel

@LauraQuinn531 thanks so much! Messages like this always lift my spirits! And yes, I have plans to include Hunted into the series but it’s been a slow work of progress so far
