Hi everyone,
I don't know who will see this, but I'm going to post a little message anyway. To be honest, I haven't logged on to this account for many months so I'm a little rusty on how wattpad works and everything seems to have changed!
First of all, I unpublished both of my Thomas Sangster fanfictions (Read My Mind and Little Lion Man) as I'm about to go to university to study English, and am quite reluctant for them to find any of my writing on here as it's not reflective of my best work.
That being said, writing on wattpad was such a wonderful experience. I started when I was 12 and really struggling, as many young people do, to figure out who I was. On this website I found so many people just like me who were able to rally around me and call me a friend even though we'd never met. I made some incredible friends on here, and I wish I could do it all over again. Thank you to everyone who was part of that experience.
I'm 18 now, and the happiest I've been in my life. I still write constantly, and plan on writing for as long as I live. It's funny how little I seem to have changed since 2014, except I don't find Thomas Sangster attractive anymore (sorry everyone).
One of my favourite things about being on wattpad is reading the comments that younger people would leave on my story years after I stopped writing it. I loved reading them because they reminded me of myself, and if they were as uncertain and afraid as I was back then, I wish I could tell them that life has a way of working out. I can't speak for everyone, but I know that a lot of us came on here to find a community we could belong to, and I certainly did. I was united with girls around the world through our shared love of a celebrity, and I think that is a truly beautiful thing.
So thank you, and goodbye, to all those people who supported me on wattpad and beyond. This is just the first chapter of our lives, and I am so happy to have been part of this little website I called home.
