(this is coming a couple days late, but better late than never, right?)
march 26th, 2021, was my EIGHT year anniversary on wattpad. eight whole years.
if there’s one thing this platform has taught me, it’s that reading and writing have absolutely no limits. no story idea is too small, too stupid, too overdone, because every writer is different, and every writer has something new and fresh to bring to the table, and that’s the beauty of being a writer.
little 11-year-old me would’ve never guessed that eight years on this platform would result in over 3000 followers and 1,000,000+ reads across all my books. and now, at almost 19 years old, not only do i feel blessed, but incredibly grateful for the following and the reads and the family that i have made on here. being able to share my stories with the world is something i’ve always wanted to do, and without my readers (whether you follow me or not), none of what i’ve built and accomplished would’ve been possible.
this milestone is not only for me, but for those who have been on this journey with me since the beginning, and those who have just joined along for the ride.
i mean it with my whole heart when i say i love you guys because i really do. you continuously make my heart swell and fill me with so much joy and pride, and make me want to continue writing for the rest of my life.
you guys are everything to me. i couldn’t (and wouldn’t) have made it this far without you. from the bottom of my heart, thank you. thank you, thank you, thank you. for everything.
i love you all to the moon and back. forever and always.
cheers to eight years, and here’s to many more.
