When/if I do move to another platform, I’ll link you all. I do still have a discord up that I no longer promoted because some people are entitled weirdos, but I am open to opening it back to the general public just because I doubt I’ll be heavy on here any longer.

It really feels like they’re aiming to remove that account. Because why tf I go to it and there is no bio? I never removed a bio from that account. Endless flags on books + this now…

Honestly, the more I think about it. The bullshit Wattpad is putting us through just seems like a sign to take my writing more serious. On more serious platforms.
          
          I did things for fun on here but maybe it’s time to start charging (just a few dollars) to connect with my work. Maybe that’s the sign. 
          
          I’ll be signing up for patreon.
          
          And yes I will still post one shots when I make them because they aren’t graphics heavy. But for now, it seems as if it’s time to move on past Wattpad after almost 2 decades on here

I was always worried that one day this would happen and it would really freaking suck for it to happen. The best way I can give advice to people is transfer your works to Google Docs when you do it through your phone. It is free when you do it through a computer it cost money. I don’t know why it does that but it does but if you wanna protect your work, that is a good way to protect your work I know from experience I’ve also known a author that got reported or we seem to think that she got reported and her whole entire books got deleted off the app and it was one of my favorite series and it was never able to recover, and she never came back because of it it really devastated her and I wish someone would’ve had told me about Google Docs. It’s very easy and it’s a 123 step and anyone can do it. I was looking at your other post and I believe that you’re right that they are targeting black authors, which is really a shame because even in the Wattpad originals, they’re not a lot of black authors that are recognized and there are black authors that’s been on this platform 10 years or more that still have not gotten their recognition and their books and series and everything they write about is not recognized the way it’s supposed to be even though they’re amazing writers and she freaking have actual books out in the world. It’s absolutely crazy that they would do this now. I do understand why they have to do some things, but sometimes I really don’t understand Wattpad and it makes it hard to love this app when everything I’ve ever loved about books came from Wattpad. It’s just really weird.

And if anybody can tell me it’s not JUST me, and that their books are doing the same, I’ll consider trying to wait for the bug to pass and come back. But I’ve made multiple post across different platforms and no other writers are responding nor making posts about their books having glitches or continuously flags when they’re editing. So for now, it feels that I am the problem & I’ll leave the platform like they clearly want me to.

Unfortunately, I’m done writing and creating with Wattpad. 
          
          All their new guidelines are only made to target black creators regardless. 
          
          I haven’t done anything wrong, but my content continues to get flagged. I spend too much time in Canva creating graphics for my books just for them to be flagged for no reason. I shouldn’t have to file an appeal for multiple regular banners that are flagged, but not inappropriate. 
          
          So anyway. I had a great Wattpad run. I’m sick of this app, though. 
          
          Hopefully in the future I can find another platform to be creative on. But for now, I have no other option. 
          
          Thank you for the support while I’ve been here, @agrowingpain, and @fictionmultiverse. Be blessed ❤️

My QUEER love island INSPIRED book has been posted on @fictionmultiverse called “Locked In”. 
          
          the first episode drops TOMORROW! I dropped it td, but Wattpad is glitching and didn’t notify everyone it was updated so that’s that. 
          
          If you’re interested, go follow and add it to your library so you don’t miss any updates ❤️
