Saddens my heart, for I've just found out about you through a comment you left on another's page, showing gratitude towards them reading your book. But I understand, I've been off wattpad and recently tip toeing back because it felt off, a shift with the atmosphere. This app is truly great, there isn't one like it but you can tell that how they view Black Authors or even Author Of Color with the lack of push towards, making their content known. I've read many books that I wouldn't have otherwise, if it wasn't for the amazing people I've met and truly altering my realm of space to the best of my abilities.
Especially the For You page of wattpad, I rarly ever look towards it. The recommendations are saturated with white lovers/Authors being pushed and even if their books may be intriguing. I gravitate towards books more than ever w/at least A Black Woman in it, I don't care who her lover may be. Im not agasint if the book happens to be of White characters.BUT the growth of these Black Writers and being able to picture myself as the character even more seamlessly truly adds to the experience of reading. That to say, I would expect my FYP to be curated to my taste, like it would for tiktok. For explain, when you continuously watch certain types of videos, thats what will then be shown to you naturally. But unfortunately on Wattpad, it doesn't. The AOC ( Authors Of Colors) are I feel hidden, it isn't easy to find without, knowing/connecting to someone on here or book recommendations.For they don't get pushed forward the same way.
I don't want this to become too lengthy, but whatever you decide I wish you the best towards that new path you take. ! <3
