It has been a very long run, here on wattpad. A lot of my work currently on here were entirely fueled by whatever I was feeling at the time, be it sadness or anger. Some of my best works were written to those very things; be it when I was angry at my mom for whatever she blamed me for that day (and myself for not standing up for myself), or just crying alone in my bed, to little made up scenarios in my head, which were likely just entirely based on the fact I felt incredibly lonely.
I don't write a lot these days, or at least not full fledged stories/one shots, instead I tend to devote more of my time to roleplaying on amino, and in a way both wattpad and amino contributed to my development in such a huge way, both good and bad.
Now, I'm a senior in highschool, and although I'm not graduating with the class I grew up with, my own graduation is just on the horizon.
Its been a rough few years, even before covid, but even through it all, I did not once consider deleting wattpad off my phone (even with its shitty changes), even when I needed to delete apps to make room for other things that I valued more at the time, I didn't consider deleting it.
Although I don't necessarily plan on permanently coming back to wattpad, I will be checking in on it from time to time, and maybe even publishing some of my works from other places! I have so many ocs now, and I have actual full-fledged viable plans for them! I have favorites of course, and I tend to switch my fandoms quite often, but I do still have a love for writing! I will probably be making an actual AO3 once I turn 18 in September, likely under the same username. Until then, I'll be on and off!!!
