It's midnight right now and I had some spare time on my hands so I thought to check Wattpad as it's been ages since i clicked on that cute little orange word. But no, of course Wattpad had to mess it up for me. I forgot my username and my password. So I had to do an email login which again expired as soon as I closed my app. 
          	
          	But thankfully, I managed to login again. I was scrolling through my feed and I went way back to when my feed was full of wonderful people, and I got nostalgic. I hope all of you are well and happy with your lives. We don't get to connect anywhere else as we only had Wattpad to talk to. But I really hope my online friends are happy in their lives.
          	
          	We all know Wattpad isn't what it used to be. No fun threads, no conversations, no good book clubs, and no fun games of tags! 
          	
          	But this is life I suppose. We passed that phase and now all that is left is beautiful memories, even though we never met! Stay happy people! 
          	
          	I miss those good old days!!

Hello there.
          It's been a long time. You still around here?

@PreciousGem07 I will. I plan to post updates on my Substack (maddyogenesclub.substack.com) as well as IG (maddyalson), perhaps I'll post excerpts too. I'll also be posting announcement here. Hahah, it'd be my pleasure! lol. Consider it pre-booked. ;)
            
            Yeah, I'd uninstalled the app so long ago. I login via website whenever I feel like now. Yeah, I understand. If you plan to write anything like creative non-fiction or essays, Substack might be a good alternative for you. You can post fiction too, but the fiction community is niche and may not attract traction as well as other personal/journalistic posts. Substack is still a building community, so it's a lot more cosier and intimate than here, also more mature audience I think. It's basically a newsletter, but also has their own built-in ecosystem. 
            
            lol, Okay. Well, old fashioned wasn't all bad. The small classroom and individualised attention was a little more feasible in the traditional setting. Now it's more test-centric and one-size-fits-all approach, which takes away from the education imo. So focused on grades, we're forgetting what schooling is all about.

@CrownedMadness True! Writing should always be the priority. But please let me know whenever you publish, through whichever medium that might be. I would love to buy and read it. Maybe someday I'll get a signed copy from the famous author ;) and I'll boast about it. haha! 
            
            I absolutely agree. I had even unistalled the app and was not thinking of returning. But I had to draw some writing motivation, and all my works were posted here, so had to login. Thank you! Hopefully I get to write something different. 
            
            Haha! Cool, collected? We will agree to disagree on that. But yeah, I like the idea of teaching in a traditional setting. Call me old fashioned lol.
             Thanks a lot! <3

@PreciousGem07 True, true. 
            
            Tbh, I haven't thought about publishing yet. It's a little daunting, both processes of traditional and self-publishing. So I'm trying to focus on writing the book now, and worry about that later. The hope is on traditional, but we'll see. 
            
            Wattpad feels a little alienating nowadays, especially for those who's been around here longer. Or maybe it's just me. Anyway I hope you find that spark for writing, regardless if you post it somewhere or not. 
            
            I can see/feel that. You kinda have that cool, collected, teacher vibes. It might be your calling. Wishing you success and good opportunity. <3

Undying love was one of the bestest stories I've ever read. It's honest and pretty decent but your words made it extremely beautiful. 
          I loved the whole plotline and the characters were just so interesting ❤❤.
          You are an excellent writer keep up the good work :)

Hello everyone!! How are you all? I hope you all are safe in this crucial time. :) 
          
          It's been ages since I posted on here last. So I decided to dig into my old stories and saw it as an opportunity to publish something on here. They are a collection of super short stories, mostly less than 250 words. I had written them for another site for weekly contests. They are just based on one word, like - time, game, heart, etc. It's a new concept, and I'm excited to share them with you! Please read and share your thoughts with me! It would mean a lot! 
          
          P.S - I am willing to take 'word' requests. Suggest me a word and I'll try to create a short story out of it. 
          
          Peace out! :)

Hello everyone! Hope you're all doing well and good. Long time no see? I sometimes miss Wattpad, and I do see updates from some of you, and your works. I so want to read them. But time is a constraint. I will be reading them some day soon though. :)
          
          I've no idea how, but recently Undying Love has been  getting so much of attention. It's not often but whenever I check my notification box, it makes me smile. There has been so many votes, so many new adds to the reading lists and quite a few new followers as well. It's just mind blowing. I can't believe you guys made it close to 20k reads from just 2k. The increase in views is phenomenal. I never thought I would see the 20k mark on any of my works. But it feels great to see that you guys are reading my work and appreciating my writing. Thank you so very much for all the support and appreciation. 
          
          To the new people who decided to follow me, thanks a lot for the follow. I'm so inactive these days, so you won't be seeing many updates from me. But I wanted to thank you guys! :)
          
          Have a great day ahead!

Hello everyone! I hope all of you are doing well. 
          
          After being inactive for long, I have finally managed to write something for Sea High. It's not much but good enough to get in the character's mind again. Please, do have a read and share your thoughts. 
          
          Good day! :)
