There's a few things I need to say:
          	
          	First of all, we as authors can see the reading lists you add our books to. If you don't like a book, don't interact with it. It's disrespectful to make a whole playlist just to basically say someone's book is shit.
          	
          	Second, can we stop publishing the same chapter over and over again? So what if you don't get immediate views. People have lives, they're busy. And also, I thoguht this app was about doing what we love, not bring obsessed with getting views. The notifications and annoying and clutter up people's notifications, they're inconvenient.
          	
          	Lastly, STOP BASHING GHOST READERS! Not everyone is comfortable with being seen. Whether it's voting or commenting, it can be hard. I know it's discouraging when your book doesn't get interacted with as much, but that doesn't mean you should hate on ghost readers. Some people get anxiety about being seen and others have other feleings about it. Me personally, unless I know you, I'm not comfortable commenting on a fic, sometimes I'll vote if I'm feeling less anxious. Think about it this way, if you were to publish an actual physical book, you wouldn't get all those votes and comments, all your readers would essentially be ghost readers. So can we stop the ghost reader bashing?
          	
          	That's all I have to say right now, just some things that have really been annoying the shit out of me lately. Thanks for coming to my Ted Talk

I promise I haven't abandoned Under the Same Web, I've just been busy with other things and work lately. I have a new fic coming out next month (June) for pride month, and I've been working on republishing my fics. My Stiles fic will be republished either Tuesday or Wednesday, then after that I have my Carl and Charles fics (don't know which is comig out first yet).
          
          I do want to try to work on the next chapter tomorrow since I don't work tho. Recently when I have freetime I've been working on graphics for the new fic and edits for some of my other ones, now that most of that is out of the way I am free to actually write
