Hello folks, how are y'all doing? I come bearing updates. 
          	
          	My publisher for Thick and Thin did not pay me a single penny in royalties, and now the book is not even available on Amazon. They have not told me why, and when I enquired, I received no answer from them. So screw it, I have republished the story on Wattpad, and you can read it for free, yay!
          	
          	Also, I had temporarily taken down  Project Heart(h), and that too is back up again!

Hi there! We're AsiansReads, a profile dedicated to showcasing literary work that features Asian cultures and characters. We're planning to publish an AAPI Pride special chapter in our AsiansReads Magazine to celebrate AAPI month and Pride month, and we're wondering if you would like your book, "Project Heart(h)", to be featured among other books that feature both AAPI and pride themes. Thank you!

Hi folks, it's been a long long time. And so much has changed! I'm a proper adult now with a job, y'all. It's wild. And hard. And though I don't open this app much these days and though I dislike what has become of wattpad, I often think back to the countless hours I spent here and my heart swells with tenderness.
          
          I miss writing and reading silly little love stories. I miss all my friends/readers over here. And truly, nowhere else have I ever felt as comfortable as a writer as I have on wattpad, and yes, with adulting and under the weight of the real world in these terrible terrible times, my writing has mostly stopped. Most days I don't even feel like a writer anymore. But I want to change that. And I think I've found a new place to try to do so.
          
          So if you still want to stay in touch, read stuff I write, you can now find me on substack: https://substack.com/@glasseyed29
          
          I have two publications, one on poetry, personal essays and so on, and the other on economics (but not hardcore econ cause i'm too emo to do proper academia) cause your girl is an econ researcher now, lol. But do drop by, and now that I'm writing this message, perhaps one of my first posts over there will be about this site, its people and how it shaped my childhood. I don't know who I'd have been without this platform and the wonderful folks I met here. Oof imma go cry now.

@glassEyed YOU'RE ALIIIIVE!!! Adult life is hard but we can do this! Love you and wish you the best

Honestly such a shame how AI is ruining wattpad, tons of generated stories and the covers also being ai  Literally killing the arts with the slop

I also wonder what has happened to wattpad or how it is changing now with AI. AI slop must be here too, right? It also makes me worried about leaving my stuff out here for AI to steal. Really sad times for readers and writers. *sigh*
