Hi, you beautiful people.
          	
          	I know I've been a bit AWOL from this platform for a while now, but it's been for a very good reason. I'm here now to tell you guys about Saphly!
          	
          	It's a storytelling & publishing platform entirely for the sapphics, with no intrusive ads, no automated moderation that blocks queer stories, strict anti-AI policies, and all in all a platform where we will listen to your feedback and always be fair to authors and readers alike. It’s a personal project by me and @ShayZayit, and it'd mean the world to me if you checked it out.
          	
          	The current version of it is still in the early stages (seeing how we started as a traditional publisher), but you can go ahead and create an account, comment on stories, save books to your library, or even post your own if you wish to be there with us right from the start. We require absolutely not exclusivity between platforms, not even for monetized works, as the goal is not to own any content but to host a place where sapphic content isn't buried and gets the center stage it deserves. 
          	
          	There's plenty more features coming soon—we work on this constantly and build upon every kind of feedback.
          	
          	And if you ever wish to give "Miss, Do I Know You?" a re-read, it's up on Saphly as well. If I ever put out a sequel or publish the actual version of it, it's going to be there.
          	
          	Thank you and have a wonderful day!

@ArianeShayne You can find it if you just google “Saphly”! Should be the first result. Best of luck with finding your Alex, as wishes do come true. :)

Hey
          
          I wanted to let you know (in case you didn’t know already) that Wattpad has changed their rules regarding what content they allow on this app. They are using ai to enforce these new rules, which is obviously a very inaccurate and unreliable tool, and are permanently removing books from this platform which has ‘broken their rules’. 
          
          I have copied the new rules below. Please please please make copies of your book. I can’t afford to lose it forever!
          
          “We allow a wide range of creative expression, including mature and challenging topics.
          However, we remove content that is:
          • Created primarily for sexual arousal
          • Exploitative or harmful
          • Intended to shock, glorify harm, or promote hate
          • Copyrighted works of others without their explicit legal consent
          
          Banned/Not Allowed
          • Pornographic content (created primarily for sexual arousal)
          • Any sexual content involving minors. Wattpad maintains zero tolerance for Child Sexual Explicit Material (SEM). We may report suspected CSEM directly to relevant law enforcement authorities worldwide.
          • Sexual exploitation, coercion, or non-consensual acts that are glorified
          • Sexual roleplay, solicitation, or messaging
          • Illegal sex acts in violation of applicable local and international laws, including but not limited to, bestiality, necrophilia, incest, or child sexual exploitation and abuse material.”
          
          I will forward this to other author’s profiles to make them aware too.

Dear Author,
          
          I'm still reeling from the experience of reading your book. Your masterpiece left an indelible mark on my heart, and I'm forever grateful for the journey you took me on. Your portrayal of Kayla resonated deeply with me, and I felt seen and understood in ways I never thought possible. Your writing is a gift, and I'm so thankful you shared it with the world. Thank you for pouring your heart and soul into this story. It truly is a treasure.
          
          With love,
          Silvanne.

quick question for the new version of your book miss, do i know you will alex have a pov?

kandi1209

@reneesteinberg love that! can’t wait for when you publish the new version i know it’s going to be good!
Contestar

reneesteinberg

@kandi1209 Nothing to be sorry about. I’d say it’s the same at its core, but the way I go about most things is different. More logical, more polished. So it definitely isn’t the same.

kandi1209

@reneesteinberg oh okay sorry but i have one last question will the new version be different from this one?

frankapank

When will we able to see your another work of an art 

reneesteinberg

@suzzanne29 Hahah, I wish. But hey, you can never know what twists life has in store! Thank you for the kind words. :)

@ReneeSteinberg is there a way it could be made into a movie?
            This was such an amazing book 
            You are so talented

reneesteinberg

@Burberries33 The plot will be somewhat close to the original but not entirely. The dynamics are the same but with some changes because over the last years I’ve come to really dislike the ‘teacher’ trope and all of the ethical issues it raises, especially in a high school setting. So, that’s that. The txs trope makes my skin crawl hahah, partly because of what I’ve come to do in life myself, which is teaching. I’m studying that now, to teach English and coding. And I’ve got another degree in computer science. I’m all over the place generally because I’ve always wanted to be everything and everyone, and so I’m doing bits and pieces of everything and am never satisfied with anything fully. The book is one of those things. Hopefully one day. :) Anyways, I hope life’s treating you well!
