Hello all. I am deleting wattpad. Maybe permanently, maybe someday in the future I'll reinstall it.
Before I do though, I'd like to say how much this platform, and the people on it mean to me. When I felt lonely or alone when I was younger, I always had wattpad and the friends I made on here who I could always count on to be there for me and give me a good laugh. They were my friends when I had none, so thank you. Thank you all so much for being there for me. And thank you for being my friends and know that I cherish you all very much and will continue to do so for the rest of my life.
It was on wattpad I discovered that I loved reading and as a result, writing. Through my embarrassing attempts at coherent storytelling, I slowly but surely, through trial and error and a considerable amount of time - became a better writer. Though it may not be reflected in most of my work on here as I have not published them. It was here that I discovered my two greatest loves in life that I still enjoy and hope to continue for as long as I live.
I found friends, community, as well as different worlds in various wondrous stories that I could immerse myself in. It was here I learned that the world was far bigger than I ever imagined, and it only ever grows bigger.
I was almost 12 when I discovered wattpad. I am now 17, having had my birthday a little over a week ago.
All my friends have moved on and I no longer read or write here either. And it only seems right that I should move on too and end my journey here in a manner that is fair. Leaving abruptly with no notice would not do justice for all the fun and good times I've had on here. So here is my goodbye and my thanks to you, dear wattpad and my dear friends.
I will love you all for as long as I live and who knows? Maybe one day I'll come back. But for now, I bid you all farewell and good luck in everything you may hope to achieve. Thank you all for the memories. Goodbye <3
