Hello there,
It’s been a while—over two years, in fact. I don’t know if the friends and fellow authors I once knew here are still around. Wattpad itself has changed, and perhaps you won’t even remember who I am or why you followed me. But that’s not really the point.
Some people step into young adulthood thriving, ready to explore life with ease. Others, like me, stumble while trying to adapt. But I'm not here to whine, only be honest. Today, I’ve unpublished all of my work—my poems, short stories, even the half-finished novella. I’m ashamed to admit that I barely wrote a single line in 2024, and this year too, life’s twists and turns have kept me silent. It demands far more of me than im willing to give.
Often I find that silence swallows my words before they ever reach the page, and suddenly another year has passed. Guilt gnaws at me from the inside, yet I’m too scared to pick up my pen or open my inbox—afraid of facing others, or perhaps just running away from myself. Messages pile, stories stew, and slowly I become but a relic of what used to be.
Will I ever fully reclaim my voice? I don’t know. For now, I feel my old work deserves some privacy while I try to rediscover the spark that made me write in the first place... A blank slate.
Thank you, truly, for being here—even if only as a silent follower through my long pause. Maybe one day, when the words return, I’ll share them again.
For now, I rest here in dust and silence, until the day I am unearthed—or forgotten.

@juneamoe Everyone said it already of what you may wanted to hear so I don't have anything to add new here. Passion, hobby meant nothing in adulthood when you have to focus on more important aspect of life like getting degree, earning money because at the end of the day, this is what pays our bill. So, don't feel guilty of not writing. One day, when your want will become your need — you will eventually be back in this path again or you won't — let's just leave it on time. Take care of yourself, I wish you the best for you future endeavors of life!

@juneamoe Girl, don't feel guilty! You don't owe any of us anything. I think as writers one of the bravest things we can do is confront our fears about ourselves, and I believe your spark is still there, apparent even in this update message. Life is definitely challenging but I believe you've got this :)
