Delay in publishing "Ambre's Choices.":
          	
          	Hi everyone! I'm posting this to let you know that a lot is going on in my life right now, and that I've fallen behind on Ambre's story. The next chapter is almost ready, but it's hard to find a few peaceful hours for the final proofreading. I hope it will be out end of the week but I'm not even sure. 
          	
          	Sorry again.

HI! I just discovered that I can write to you outside the comment section, at least that’s what this looks like. You have inspired me to work harder on my story so I can publish it. 
          
          I initially titled my story “A little journey” but found it’s already taken so I’m trying to come up with another that fits. It’s about a girl who has had a diaper desire for some time and finally acts on it by stealing one while babysitting. I wrote it in First Person because it’s all about her mental journey in discovering her Little side and I felt that is the best way for the reader to experience it with her. It’s fairly slow moving compared to a number of stories here because that’s what happens in real life. That’s what I love about Ambre, she is slowly discovering that side of herself with the support of a loving caregiver. That inner journey is what really interests me, the emotional issues that come from a desire you can’t talk about with others and the embarrassment of wanting to be a baby again. 
          
          I’ve gotten to the point after 16 chapters where she might get a car seat and crib for the first time. I see her spending the summer deep in Little Space and having to work to come back out as school restarts. That wouldn’t end her journey, but it might be a place to conclude the story. Finding a satisfying conclusion is what I’m struggling with right now.

@LittleKelly2002 Yes, you must have read part of 'Little Lady Briana', which is somehow still available on Wattpad, and missed two whole books: 'Little Sister Briana' and 'A Family for Briana'. It must have been quite a jump in time indeed. 
            Plus, Little Lady Briana really shows the struggle of US current political state, which gives the story a really dark undertone.
            I'll definitely notify you if her archive goes up again, or if we hear from her again. 
            
            I remember an author who was previously on Wattpad (gone since the great purge!): https://archiveofourown.org/users/AB_DeLane/pseuds/AB_DeLane
            
            He writes stories that take common ABDL tropes and present them realistically. 'All My Mother's Rules' was quite nice and really psychological, but a bit dark, and 'Diapers Never Lie' was even darker (this one is straight up abuse from start to end). I never quite liked 'The Girl Who Wanted to Wear Diapers', as I find the main character to be inconsistent and the story to drag on for too long for my taste, but maybe you'll like it.

I realized that I already read “The Family’s Baby” long ago. It is one of my favorites too! I also love “The Sweetest Little” that is currently being written.

Oh, I read Baby Briana already and loved it! I think I binged it too! I found another part of the story here some time ago but it appeared to be quite a jump into the future which left me mostly lost. I think that’s because I missed “Little Sister Briana” and possibly more. I’ll have to wait until the archive site is up to read it. Let me know if it returns!
            
            I’m putting the three local stories in my personal library. Don’t worry about taking your time to reply. I know that everyone is really busy these days and I don’t want to add any stress!

Hello everyone, as some of you may have seen, I have just posted the second chapter of Ambre: Finding Her Way Back. It's the new version of the Ambre story that I had already posted there, but which had been taken down.
          A strange thing has happened though, as I can't see the story in any of the rankings (neither under hot nor new). I still have a rankings on the story in my profile, but I can't see it in the rankings lists. The last time this happened the story was shadow banned and then removed. 
          
          Is this happening again or have I missed something?

@Mouche222 keep the story going I love it

@ABollea It wasn't removed; it just exhibits strange behavior with the ranking system. For example, it doesn't appear att all in diapers ranking when it should. In any case, the Wattpad ranking system is quite random.
            If you'd like, you can find the story here:

Hello everyone, today is a sad day, Ambre's choice has been taken down by wattpad. 
          I have to say that I'm really sad about this. I haven't lost the story, I have some backups. But I still don't have your comment and I won't be able to publish it there.
          
          From now on I will publish the story (1 time a week) on : 
          https://reamstories.com/page/lul0in0123/member
          So if anyone wants to continue reading it, I'd love to have you there.
          
          Ps: 
          And I'm also thinking of posting it on AO3, but I'm not really a user of that site, so I'd like your opinion on that.

@Alice_Sofia02 Dans un sens, tu es prévenu, Wattpad t'informe quand tu postes une histoire que ce ne sont que des hôtes pour celle-ci et que tu dois avoir ton propre support pour la conserver. Il t'informe aussi qu'il ne te donne aucune garantie sur le fait que ton histoire ne soit pas perdue. Ce qui m'attriste le plus, c'est que le bannissement n'a aucune justification. On te dit que l'histoire ne respecte pas les TOS, mais tu n'as pas plus d'informations. Faire appel ne semble avoir aucun effet, et il semble impossible de parler à un humain. Globalement, il n'y a rien à faire. Le site a décidé que cette histoire, c'était non, elle est bannie, peu importe que ce soit injuste ou injustifié. D'autant plus que la situation précédente était un shadow ban de presque 6 mois, 6 mois entre le passage de leur bot et l'évaluation par un soi-disant lecteur humain.
            
            Quant à Realms, le site est assez jeune donc il y a assez peu de contenu et vu que le site offre un moyen de monétisation intégré, beaucoup sont en effet payants. D'autant que Realms a été un refuge quand Patreon a fait le même genre de purge. L'expérience utilisateur n'est vraiment pas exceptionnelle. Ce qui m'a guidé vers ce site, c'est que SolSombra publie dessus et le setup étant assez simple, je me suis dit que j'allais en faire de même, mais j'espère sincèrement que le site va évoluer car en l'état, il n'est pas très pratique.
            
            AO3, lui, a l'air d'offrir bien plus de possibilités. L'expérience utilisateur des tags reste assez complexe pour un néophyte, je trouve, mais au moins il y a du contenu et en cherchant un peu, il est possible de trouver ce que l'on cherche.

            I have not posted yet because I am still wondering if I should post all at once or something closer to 1/2 time a week until it reaches the chapter in progress.

Hello again everyone!
          Once again, I m not posting it for good news. As many of you probably know by now, Whatpad is on a campaign of banning and shadow banning a lot of stories. 
          
          As of right now, Ambre's Choices is shadow banned, which means you can't find it by searching for its name, it won't show up, and it won't show up in any classification. 
          
          I think you can tell if a story is shadow banned by going to the author's profile and looking at the story's classification and the "see other classifications" button. If not, then the story is shadow banned. 
          
          I hope the story will not be banned (I do not think it will be, as it respects the Watapad TOS, but you never know). I want to assure you that I will continue to write this story, and if it ever gets banned, I will find a way to publish it on another platform. 
          
          
          Ps: If any of you have trouble finding a story, you can still access it through the author's profile page.

            Hi, I did made a duplicate of it on ream. 
            For now it is just a backup in case wattapad decides to ban the story for some reason. The review process seems to be quite long, so I'm on standby for now, hoping it gets reviewed soon (4 mounts of waiting already). 
            For Ream, the idea behind the site is great, and it's easy to set up, but I think it has major UI/UX problems, so I have a hard time recommending it to people.

@Mouche222 
            I see you posted it on Ream. I just moved all of my stories over there, too. It might be worth calling out your followers or as a comment on the story if you haven't already.

Hello everyone!
          As you may have seen the cover image of "Ambre's Choices" has changed. It's not by choice, watpad decided that the previous image didn't respect the terms of use (I don't really understand why but whatever). I hope this one stays, otherwise I'll generate a softer image.
          
          As for the good news, I've finished writing the next chapter, I'll start proofreading it this evening, I hope to have it out tomorrow night, Wednesday at the latest.

Mouche222

Well, I still don't really understand what the problem was, especially considering some of the images you can see on Wattpad. But I made the change, and I think I prefer the new one for the best. 
            It's really nice that you're writing again, don't hesitate to let me know if you publish anything!

That’s shocking that they did anything. 
            I thought they were pretty hands off for the most part. 
            
            It’s awesome to see your story has gotten so much traction. I’m going to give it a read. I got back into writing in the middle of last month and am taking a similar approach on keeping it pretty mild, and focusing more on the story and characters.
