It is currently 10 pm as I am writing this.
It will be 2 hours.
2 hours until January 3, the time I make my move to ao3.
I just want all of you whom I have interacted with in a very positive way to know that you all are amazing, and I love you. I don’t know who I would be without Wattpad, really. It started from “haha reading fanfics at 12 am lol” to finding out the person that I truly am.
I can’t describe how wonderful this experience was; to meet new people without me stuttering way too much, to read wonderful fanfictions, to be able to feel so much with some damn pixels turning on and off. It was all just— truly wonderful.
I am sorry to see that the website I loved so dearly before lose the spark that had me hanging on. The people were leaving, many of the good stories becoming dense due to my growing standards, many of the new stories being duller than sitting in a room all day, doing nothing, the good stories becoming rarer by the second. Wattpad is wonderful, yes— but not so much anymore to keep my interest. That interest has moved onto ao3, however. The abundance of good stories, the complicated system to keep me wanting to know more, the exploration of things more suitable to my taste, and I’ll mention the absolute abundance of good stories, so I may learn from them and make my own more wonderful and intricate than my stories ever were before! I’m happy for my chance to get in.
