Hey everyone,
I wanted to give a quick and honest update about the awards.
I genuinely woke up one day to see that the awards book was no longer available. It appears the book was taken down due to a guidelines-related issue, though despite trying to understand what exactly went wrong, I couldn’t clearly identify the reason.
Around the same time, I also lost access to my account due to multiple login attempts from different devices, which temporarily restricted my access. Because of this, I wasn’t able to take immediate action or communicate properly. It took me some time to recover everything.
With all of this happening together, the awards couldn’t continue as planned. I know this is disappointing, and I truly appreciate everyone’s patience and understanding. I might restart the awards soon. But all my other books are gone too
Thank you for bearing with me

Thank you everyone!
I did try speaking and two of my books are restored as of now! I am trying what I can do. But yes, it was truly disappointing to see what I've written suddenly vanish one day. I love writing, and will continue to do so.

@Maya_Noor That stinks. I've had a book removed by Wattpad before, and I recommend appealing the decision. A real human will sit down and read your books, and they'll either reverse the decision if it was made in error, or they'll tell you why the books were removed so you at least have an answer. I expected that to take a long time, but it took less than a month to get my book restored.

@Maya_Noor I’m so sorry to hear this - must be heartbreaking to see everything gone. Don’t worry about the awards - speak to Wattpad to get your own work recovered. Best of luck.
