so, umm... i have an announcement to make. recently, i have taken a BIG decision. im not going to continue with wattpad anymore i have to admit that my journey with wattpad was great; i learned a lot about writing; i mad new friends; and most importantly, i found people who willingly read my stories and were kind enough to give feedback and reviews. and for that, im grateful to all of my readers and supporters. but, what ive realised is that to maintain this platform, i have to invest a lot of time, dedication, and hard work; but in return, im not actually getting what i deserve. in fact, to establish my place in wattpad, im not even getting time enough to WRITE. so, im going to do this the old way - the traditional way. i dont want followers or reads or votes. i want people to like my writing enough to actually spend money to buy it, i want to see my book in the shelves of public libraries, i want people to take up my book from their bookshelves to reread it, and still not get enough of it. id probably still keep the account and the books, but if any newspaper or magazine accepts it, ill have to delete them from here. i know its a very big decision, and its been stressing me a lot. i m sure ill regret it later on. but once i become famous like Stephen King and J K Rowling, illbe sure that i made the right decision in choosing my writing instead of wattpad fame which might never come to me, and eve if it did come after many years, im sure i wouldnt have benefited from it any way so from now on, ill only be writing, writing, writing. and if some magazine or newspaper - perhaps a popular publisher - published my writing, then ill be thanking all of you who supported me through my journey and encouraged me to keep writing on.

@nafisa_tabby_rida Good job bestie! I'll root for you and hope to have my books next to yours in Barnes and Noble or something!! Also just know, you don't have to quit Wattpad to become an author- a lot of authors on Wattpad have made it to the bestsellers list FROM Wattpad, such as Natasha Preston and Anna Todd and Rachael Rose and Beth Reekles and soo many more. Whatever you choose to do, I hope to see you in a book signing! <3
