Hi! I know it's been a long while since I've been on here, but I saw a recent surge on my own story and so I came back after several years and what do you know? You're still #1 in SciFi! Amazing!

@David-O Yeah, you're not the only one who's amazed at that! However, over the past year Wisdom has dropped off the #1 spot several times to around a value of #40 to #50 according to the note on my profile. But, when I went to look at the actual chart, it was nowhere to be seen (though, once, I found it was actually somewhere in the #200's). I raised a question with Wattpad about this and they said I wasn't the only one to notice this. Then, about a week later, it popped back to #1 and has been there ever since. I have absolutely no idea why! :D

Hi @dvdvnr! I'm Zephyra, Your story (Wisdom of the Ancients)really touched me. I was wondering if it's okay for me to make some art inspired by it?

Shared Passion for Sci-Fi? 
          
          Hello David,
          
          I came across your profile and noticed our mutual admiration for the sci-fi genre. I’m working on “Homeward Nebula” – envision superhumans, once lost in space, returning to an Earth that sees them as aliens.
          
          Would you be open to giving the first chapter a quick read and sharing your initial thoughts? If it resonates, perhaps there’s a chance for collaboration in the future?
          
          Thanks for considering, and best wishes with your writing journey!
          
          Warmly,
          Ethan

Hi David,
            
            Thank you for taking the time to read the first chapter of "Homeward Nebula." I appreciate your honest feedback.
            
            Warm regards,
            Ethan

@hartmann_ethan Hi Ethan. Thanks for asking. I have given your first chapter a read. I'd say it's far too short to form any real opinion. All the best, David.

          But, that's not all, Harvest Time is one of 20 stories appearing in Beyond Between, which is now in paperback and officially published 21 June 2023. You can pre-order it here:

          The Kindle e-book version will be available as soon as I get around to formatting it!

Well, this little gem (reproduced below in quotes) just appeared in my Wattpad inbox. Yes, those things in the [square brackets] were exactly how they appear here! Interesting that it gets to the point where the scammers can't even be bothered (or are too stupid?) to fill in the placeholders properly! :D
          
          Has anyone else received these?
          
          I'm now off to block and report the account...
          
          
          "I hope this message finds you well. My name is [Your Name], and I have recently crafted a captivating story that I believe may pique your interest. It is a tale filled with intrigue, emotions, and a touch of magic.
          
          If you are open to exploring new narratives, I would be delighted to share my story with you. It is a [genre or description of the story] that follows the journey of compelling characters as they navigate the twists and turns of life, ultimately discovering the power of love, resilience, or any other prominent theme in your story.
          
          If you would like to learn more or receive a brief synopsis, please let me know. I value your insights and would greatly appreciate your thoughts on my work. Thank you for considering this request, and I look forward to hearing from you."

@TheStoryScholar Yeah, though I haven't had one of those in a while now. Maybe Wattpad have some better filters in place now.

@Fuzzicat333 Having gone to the account, there are some actual stories there. I didn't read them and wondered if they were AI-generated or stolen from somewhere else.
