Yes, I am still on a hiatus and I’ve been doing a little better. But I just felt like I needed to get this off my chest as a wattpad writer.
When I first joined this app alllll the way back in 2014 there was this huge sense of community where no comments or votes on ANY chapter of any fic was completely unheard of. I get that I preach time and time and time again about ‘not get discourage about no reads or comments’ and ‘your readers will come one day soon’ but gooodddd I’m really starting to get where y’all are coming from.
No comments and votes just suck, right? They’re so disheartening and make you feel like your words aren’t good enough?
Yes, commenting can be jarring and theres a bit of confidence most of you need to reave up to do. And as much as I rather comments votes are nearly equally as good.
Just one click on that star after every chapter — that’s all you have to do. Because seeing the views go up to in the 200s and the votes still at an 8 .. it’s very rough.
Im just rambling on about this and it may not make sense to any of y’all .. but, as a writer, it’s so hard to keep at it on a story when theres no interactions. As much as I love my stories and want them to be out there my love can only go so far, it seems. Its one of the reasons of my hiatus ..
Back when I made my first fic, the first version of ‘Dreaming of a Blue Box’ back in 2017, GOSH I had soooo many comments. I felt so loved and like my words were worth something — that it had meaning and that it changed someone’s life. I write to give you, my readers, a sense of comfort through my words. That fic had 80 parts and I finished it in three months. My fics now are taking over a year to even get four chapters out.
I don’t want to come across preachy or rude and begging and I’ll end it with .. just think about it.
Oh, and stop adding our fics into rudely titled reading lists? Please??

@KleeAlise11 I am embarrassed to say that I thought the votes were like Kudos on AO3. I didn’t realize you could vote every chapter.

Can we leave the mean titles people make for their reading lists in 2025 please? Thank you ..

@KleeAlise11 Really?! That’s crazy! And so rude! I’d block them. If they don’t like your book, no reason to let them read them.

I put all my fics, and myself, on a hiatus until later this year ... spring or summer, idk. My writing has deteriorated recently and quite frankly it's getting on my last nerves. My dialogues are lack luster, my descriptions are horrid and if I write yet another chapter that's barely 2k words im gonna scream.
I know I've preached time and time again to not care what others think and write what you love. But how does that work for me if I do not love my stories like I used too? I think having trouble of finding a job and a purpose at life is what's hurting me.
I need to do this before I just disappear off wattpad forever. Believing after over twelve years on this app I may have overstayed my welcome? The followers and friends ive made along the years have sadly went on own way off the app .. maybe I should follow ..
But I know should try and give myself one last chance. I owe past Kayleigh who downloaded this app in middle school to just read One Direction fanfics so much more.
During this hiatus I'll be working on my fics on my own. And if I find my writing has returned in the way I used to then I'll return. And if it doesn't then ill let all know ..
Im sorry if this sounded like word vomit -- it seems I cant even write a decent semi goodbye message.
I love you all so very much

@KleeAlise11 if you feel the need to take a step back from writing because it's not making you happy, then by all means because you have to do right by you and your mental health. lord knows sometimes i have to take a step back and ask myself if i'm a decent writer or not. you'll get through this, i know you will. your doctor who fic is what inspired me to write mine because i was just so enthralled by your oc and the story you crafted from the show. you'll always mean so much to me, kayleigh. i'm so glad to be your friend, ily xx

Take this however way you’d like but I dream of being that girl that disappears off the literal face of the earth and haunts the narrative …
