IMPORTANT!!!! REGARDING THE PRINCE'S PRIZED POSSESSION
Wattpad did something weird outside of "publishing" my scheduled chapters (removing it from the queue and changing it to a draft.) Wattpad unpublished my whole nook and turned the chapters into drafts, which I had to manually republish. It looks like the individual view counts and comments are gone. It sucks, and I apologize to my readers. Thank you for understanding.
Wattpad did the thing again, where it claimed to release a scheduled chapter and instead took it out of the queue as a draft. Sorry to everyone who was waiting for the new chapter of The Prince's Prized Possession! It should be available now!
Okay, something weird happened where I had chapter 19 of The Prince's Prized Possession scheduled to auto post today, and I got a notification that it was posted, but when I checked my chapters it was still listed as a draft. My apologies to anyone who was waiting on the update! I've gone and manually posted it. Enjoy!

New episode of The Prince's Prized Possession drops tonight! I know the chapters aren't as long as Mark Me Yours, since I'm getting back into the groove and figuring out a good workflow, but it's finally hitting mini binge level length!
Sorry for the delay in releasing the new chapter of The Prince's Prized Possession! I had gone back and edited the chapter, but didn't realize it turned off the scheduled publish option. My bad (^～^;)ゞ
Please please please tell me other serializing authors are having this problem???
I'm getting so many commission fishing "artists" on new chapter updates and I'm absolutely tired of deleting them (-_-;)・・・
I know I wasn't very active on Wattpad for a while, but is this how things are now? I'm starting to dread Wattpad notifications because 95% of the time it's a fisher instead of an actual reader.
I'm not sure what to do. Do I leave the comments and let them trash up the comment section, or do I keep deleting them? Help?
@charmainewattson At least I'm not the only one. That's good to know (〒﹏〒) It seems blocking them would do no good either, because they're using throw away accounts in the first place. I'll try to ignore them, then.
You’re not alone! It’s blatantly obvious when they’ve had a profile for five days, follow 140 profiles, and “love your story” despite not knowing anything about it. Personally, I just ignore them - lack of engagement hopefully shows that I am not a viable target, and directs their efforts elsewhere.
And I could mute them, but that only makes it so I can't personally see them. Everyone else would still be able to.
So... Bittersweet news, I believe. My bid for a contract on The Prince's Prized Possession has been rejected. Almost three times. The other platform was interested, until I started writing and shared my outline.
It's on them to curate their platform, as they're allowed to do, and they weren't interested in storylines mostly focused on personal growth. Turns out non-anglican main characters are also a no-go.
Disappointed yes, but it also means The Prince's Prized Possession will be posted here in full as it's written. Even if I made the changes the other platform wanted, it wouldn't be anywhere close to the story I wanted to write from the start.
That said, time to pick myself up, dust myself off, and go back to enjoying this silly little free time hobby of making imaginary people kiss.
✧(^～^;)ゞ
Also tried submitting to Royal Road today, because why tf not? Gonna collect those rejections like badges of honor

Every feedback is a chance for growth!
Spent my sick day jazzing up a new cover for The Prince's Prized Possession ᕙ(⇀‸↼‶)ᕗ
So, if you happen to go searching, you won't find it under that mess of a filtered photo I was using before. I hope you guys enjoy! (◍•ᴗ•◍)✧*。
I'm sure this goes without saying, but for "artists" to leave vague comments on a new story trying to get the author to check out your socials and request cover art, without actually interacting with the story itself, is a huge insult. From one artist to "another," that's scammy as f*ck.
You want to pitch an idea, go to an author's DMs. Don't clog the comment section with that nonsense. Done seen too many of these.
(┛ಸ_ಸ)┛彡┻━┻
*end rant*
Big news! The first ten chapters of The Prince's Prized Possession have been written, and are scheduled to be posted on Friday evenings! After the first ten chapters, the story will unfortunately be exclusive on another platform (GN.)
While I know this will frustrate some readers, I hope you understand. I would gladly pitch to Wattpad, but their submissions have been "temporarily down" for a while, and they want completed stories, not serialized ones.
I hope you enjoy my tease, and I can't wait to see you all in the Kingdom of Gelsan!
