Don’t mean to state the obvious, but Wattpad has been making a lot of changes lately.
Some I’m on board with (like the reading list updates via notifications) and others I could live without (like comment notifications, which are overwhelming and spoiler-filled).
But you know what would be a really cool feature? A dashboard for readers that tracks the books I’m reading in a more organized way; maybe with charts showing what chapters I’m on, reading progress, and better ways to sort and prioritize my TBR. As a user, I’d honestly find that far more useful.

@ProlixRemedy I love your creative ideas, but probably will not happen on Wattpad. Who knows✨:-(

@katiegoesmew I'm more patient than you then. XD I always retry. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.

@HeideReynes I've been having that trouble on the app for a while. It isn't a problem on desktop, but there's pretty much no point in my trying to check on the app. I just get frustrated and have to try again later (on my computer).

The Nanny Protocol just made it to Round 3! I'm thrilled. This was my first attempt at writing (what I think is) a commercial romantic comedy. ONC occurred during some of the toughest three months of my life (story for another day, I suppose).
But setting that aside, I am so incredibly thrilled for all the love this story has received and for all the wonderful new people I've connected with through ONC.
Please note: if your book is on my ONC reading list, I will absolutely get to it before the end of the year. So please don't disappear after ONC. I fully intend to keep reading ONC stories long after the contest is over, God willing.
As always, much love. Hope you're having a good weekend.

Is Wattpad announcing new chapters on current stories now? I’m not sure anymore.
But anyway, I just posted Chapter 18, “Philosopher,” of Finding Grace [Sumer]. Come read as Hermes and Grace’s adventure into Algeria continues. Anticipate another chapter by the end of the holiday weekend.

@ProlixRemedy I still get update notifications, though I've noticed that new chapters aren't showing up on the app for some reason.

Thank you for adding my book, "Sword of Victory," to your reading list!
ProlixRemedy
@Multilingually Of course. Give me a bit of time to get caught up on my TBR, but I will be over in a couple of weeks.

Thank you so much for adding Wheels On Fire to your reading list! Really appreciate it! The Nanny Contract looks equally interested too, and I intend to start soon. Hope you'll love the ride!

Are we permitted to add an author’s note to our ONC submissions at this point? My story is marked complete, but adding an author’s note won’t disqualify it, right?

@ProlixRemedy That's tricky, but I'd prefer to wait ... Just so that it doesn't drive me crazy in worry.

@ProlixRemedy -- I do not recommend it. The judges went straight into reviewing the third round. While it says only not to edit, if you've made it that far, it's not worth the risk.

"Water and Sand: A Modern Retelling of Ariadne and Theseus" by @NicoletteSalle is a beautiful retelling of the myth of Theseus and Ariadne. The story follows a young woman set up on a blind date by four retirees, and the hilarious, witty journey that unfolds afterward through Naples, Italy.
If you know me and happen to be reading my Grace Sumer series, then you already know Naples and I have a connection. ;)
So if you’re looking for pleasant and immersive slow burn that transports you to modern-day (and perhaps not-so-modern-day) Italy, give it a read.

@ProlixRemedy Ahhhh! Thank you And know that Grace - and all your characters, frankly - have my heart, wherever they happen to be in the world. You're a fabulous author. Glad to have met you during ONC. ♥️

Thank you to @ScienceFiction for adding "The Sky Gods of Atlantis" to their Sci-Fantasy reading list, and for adding "The Android of Atlantis" (my ONC submission from last year) to their Robots & AI reading list. I’m genuinely thrilled to see these two stories, which I love so dearly, continuing to gain recognition and find new readers. It means more to me than you know.
