i’m sorry i’m only addressing this now. the last few days have been a little crazy and i’ve had people messaging me everywhere asking what happened.
          	
          	first of all: no, i did not take down what remains of us. i would never remove one of my stories without telling you.
          	
          	as far as i know, this seems to be some kind of wattpad issue. i’ve contacted support and i’m trying to get answers, but right now i don’t know much more than you do. hopefully the story comes back soon, but we’ll have to wait and see.
          	
          	i know a lot of people are upset and trust me, i’m frustrated too. unfortunately i’m not the first author this has happened to. the bigger issue is what happens if the story doesn’t come back.
          	
          	and here’s where i have to admit something stupid: i never properly backed it up. i honestly never thought i’d need to. i still have a few chapters saved elsewhere, but not enough to simply reupload the whole thing, and rewriting everything from scratch would be a huge amount of work.
          	
          	the one thing i do know is that i’m not going to stop writing. i love it far too much for that. if wrou ends up being gone for good, i’ll probably move on to one of the many other story ideas i’ve had sitting in my head for months.
          	
          	for now all i can really do is wait and hope wattpad manages to fix this mess.

Hiii girly. I’m really sorry about your amazing creative good story and I really hope it restores. I’m really sad about this one cause it’s the first story I started reading on here and it was just SO AMAZING made butterflies fly in my stomach and it’s really a shame since it ended on a cliffhanger. If the story doesn’t get back up maybe you could just continues posting new chapters? Feels like such a waste for it to end here. Again I really hope the best for you!!

@Eliifavvv  I’m really happy you enjoyed the story that much <3  as for continuing it, I don’t think I’ll post new chapters without the first 26 being there.  the story needs that context to make sense. the only real option would be rewriting everything, but I’m still not sure if I’m ready for that

Hello!
          
          I would like to start off by saying I think you are incredibly talented and that wattpad removing your story was cruel, especially since there is no backup and the story you worked hard on is now inaccessible to you. I would like to suggest that if you were open to it, perhaps we may be able to help by submitting tickets and contacting Wattpad, just so this issue gets more awareness and it may strengthen the chance of them at least giving you access to your story. I apologize if I am overstepping, but I do believe it would be worth a try. Once again I would like to say that what remains of us is one of my favourite stories and I sincerely hope that you will be able to continue it ❤️

@Potato1737 I don’t know if you follow me on TikTok but I actually did a Q&A about wrou on my story a few days ago where people could ask questions about the ending and future plot points. If you have TikTok feel free to reach out to me there! If there’s anything specific you want to know, I can answer it privately. I don’t mind sharing at all, I’m just afraid explaining all of it here would turn into a ridiculously long Wattpad comment :)

If Wrou is gone forever, and won’t be continued will you tell us what your plans for the story was? Like the ending and the characters etc?

Hello girly!! I hope you're doing well. I just wanted to say that I really loved your story and I miss it so much. Honestly, I've never read a story as well-written and unique as yours. I really hope everything works out somehow and that we'll be able to read it again one day, just like old days. Recently, I discovered my passion for writing, and I'd love to write my own story someday. Since you're such an amazing writer, I wanted to ask if you have any tips for improving my english writing skills and making a story feel unique and original. I'd really appreciate any advice you could share!

Thank you for your advice! , I’ll definitely keep it in mind. Honestly, I already read and write in English a lot, to the point that I consider myself pretty good at it, but the idea of “what if” is something I never really thought about before. I think it’s a really unique idea and a nice quality to have as a storyteller. Thank you for sharing your experience with me ♡

@Xrosline0ox thank you, that’s really sweet of you <3 tbh I don’t even think of myself as a particularly good writer. I’ve always considered myself more of a storyteller, and to me those are two very different things. I’ve always enjoyed creating stories much more than thinking about the technical side of writing.
            
            Since English isn’t your first language, my biggest piece of advice would be to read and write in English as much as possible. Writing is a skill, and like any skill, it gets better with practice. The more you write, the more natural it becomes.
            
            As for unique stories, I think one of the most important things is staying curious. Ask yourself random “what if?” questions and see where they lead. Most of my ideas start that way. What Remains of Us only began because I wondered what would happen if Tom Riddle had a friend at Wool’s Orphanage, and from that one question the entire story slowly grew. I’d also encourage you to actively seek out inspiration. Read, watch things, explore different stories and ideas. You never know what small detail will end up inspiring your next project.
            
            Idk if this was helpful at all, but good luck with your story! <33

          I was literally thinking about when the next chapter would be uploaded and then I realized
