2026 is the new 2016. I miss the 2016 Wattpad era every single day, so I'm making it a mission to bring back that energy this year. I am working on revamping my entire account to fit the writing I share + the person I've grown into. I hope you all are excited for the change! I'm hoping to bring a lot of my stories back to my account in the coming weeks / months. So excited <3

I get that! It’s not the same as one of the best eras we’ve had as someone that’s been on here for so long.   I think it’s really considering I have followed you since the beginning and watching your book grow. In the middle of doing the same! I started rereading all my drafts as if you remember I had 300+ so I’m keeping the best ones / they’re all from 2014 - 2020 lol.

Hello, and happy December, friends! I’ll be honest — I’m not even sure there’s still an audience that exists on this account that pays attention to these messages. Still, for those who still read what I share on here, I wanted to offer some updates.
          
          I haven’t been active on Wattpad since June 2025. Between a lack of motivation, a lack of time, and a lack of engagement, I took a step back from Wattpad, because it wasn’t benefiting me or my writing journey any longer. With so many projects and opportunities coming my way, it has made Wattpad crawl further and further towards the back burner. This past year, I’ve been putting more of my energy into platforms like Instagram, Threads, Facebook, and TikTok, which has been a wonderful experience. I have met so many amazing creatives + friends throughout these last few months, and have grown my community to new heights!
          
          For the time being, I have unpublished Alone + Melancholy. I love both of these books dearly, and want to see them receiving the writing and editing they both deserve. Currently, I’m off work for the holidays, so I’m planning on using some of my time today to go through both books, my account, etc. I’d love to revamp it and bring it back to life,  to hopefully reignite a bit of my passion for Wattpad and fanfiction all together. 
          
          If you’re reading this, leave a comment and let me know you’re here! I’d love to reconnect with my community on here ❤️

I see all the recent love on Alone. The votes, reading list adds, and lovely comments. I truly appreciate every reader that still gives my story love, despite the lack of updates ❤️ A new chapter is in the works, I promise!
