Since November 2022, when I turned the last page of Somebody to Love, I became absolutely captivated by their relationship and connection. I started researching, watching videos, reading comments and material to get to know Taehyung and Jungkook better. 
          	Days, months, and years went by, from a few thoughts in my mind to dozens of finished stories. Thousands and thousands of fics I’ve read made these three years truly incredible.
          	
          	Up until November 10, 2025, I nurtured that connection in my mind and imagination.
          	
          	I just want to say that I still support Jungkook, but reading fics will never taste the same again.

Hey,
          Here I am again. Maybe someone will actually read this. I see fewer and fewer people are active here, and it breaks my heart—but on the other hand, I understand. I’ve been here since 2022, but for a while now, I’ve been wanting to know what this app was like before. Is there anyone still around from the 2018–2021 era? I feel like it was booming back then. Please, share your impressions. Tell me that authors wrote constantly and that there were so many readers. I want to hear that.
          
          I don’t understand why everyone says ao3 is the better platform. My heart somehow belongs here, to Wattpad. I love it when a book has a cover, when I can connect an image and a feeling to the title, when the author is creative enough to give us that visual that exists in their mind. I love being able to comment after every paragraph. I love reading those comments while I’m reading the story. Wattpad offers all of that.
          
          It hurts because I too have been stuck in a writing block for over a year and a half now, and honestly, I don’t think it’s temporary. That spark in me is just gone. I miss that time terribly..when I wrote and lived for writing, when I dreamed of entire plots and then rushed to write them down in the morning. Every night before bed, I would think about what I’d write the next day. But somehow, all that fades, and it comes to a point where nothing makes sense anymore, and even what once made you happy feels impossible to return to—like there’s not even a shred of strength left in you to go back.
          I guess that’s life.

@sherlockedfm Wattpad is changing its platform a little I can see. I don't pay attention to it much but don't stop writing. Writing and reading is what keeps my brain alive after my accident. I am a huge fan of werewolf stories, if you could create that story concept with a detective and plot twist. Sign me up!

            Oh, when I think about 2020, Wattpad was the last thing on my mind. I read a lot back then, but I only got familiar with the app and bts later on. Can you believe I wasn’t even an army at the time? 
            I missed out on so much. And the years are just flying by!
            
            Yes, I do remember that many people complained about books being deleted — even I did. I removed all my books for a while and then re-uploaded them later. I can totally understand the frustration that so many went through. Just imagine writing a book for months, having it up for years, and then it simply gets deleted. It’s heartbreaking, and I really feel for the authors. 
            It just makes me a little sad because I’m pretty sure this app will soon become a thing of the past.

@sherlockedfm aww i got emotional reading this! But it's so true that wp has less patrons nowadays. The lockdown era had so much viewership! I myself joined in 2021. 
            
            However due to wattpads recent censorship rules, the truly adult works have been taken down due to nsfw images and guideline violations. That's why many people have moved to ao3.

Hi, I hope you are fine and in good health.  I saved His dark aspirations in my library and today when I tried to read it I couldn't find it and after checking your profile I found out that you unpublished some of your books. Are you going to republish the book again on wattpad?

amnalam

@amnalam I don't understand why people want to report someone's work. If you don't like the topic or the way it's written just stop reading it why ruin someone's hardwork like that.

            Hey, thanks for asking... I'm really sorry about that. I panicked a little while reading the author's messages, as some unemployed persons report books and authors. Since 'His dark aspirations' is my most explicit book, I had to archive it. 
            
            Yes, I plan to republish some soon. I thought about it and realized it's ok if someone report it, because by withdrawing the books it was as if I had torn out a part of myself...

I've heard before that this application deletes books and profiles, but I didn't attach importance to it since I'm not very popular and I don't have many readers. 
          
          But you never know. I think I'll put my books away from here occasionally, at least for a while until the situation calms down. However, almost all of my books are published on ao3. 
          
          In case my profile is deleted, I don't think I will create a new one and I will take it as a sign to disappear from here

            I know my dear I loved this app, it encouraged me to write. I made some friends and met many wonderful people here. I don't know what is happening, but there is probably no chance for some authors to avoid the worst. I will be very sad if that happens to me

This day was wonderful. 
          
          I finally watched a documentary 'I am still', and I can say that I am delighted. Jungkook is really special and I'm glad I had the chance to see some moments 'behind the scenes', I felt like I was there with him.
          
          What surprised me the most is actually how many people are behind him. I knew that the staff was extensive, but it's different when you see it for real. I love Jungkook a lot, but I believe that he himself thinkswithout so many people and support, he wouldn't have achieved so much. I want to praise my idol especially because he gives so much to us. He wants to become even better for us through training (if that is even possible).
          
          The other thing that makes me happy today is that I finally published the first chapter of my new book 'The persistence of memory'. I won't say anything in advance because I don't know if this will be the last one I write, because there is a chance that my inspiration will expand like it used to (fingers crossed for that). This is a book I've been working on since March. I had trouble getting started, but I finally framed it. Of course, I didn't finish the whole thing, but I did lay the foundation, which is the most important thing in my opinion. I will try to post twice a week. 
          
          I know I don't have many followers, but thanks to everyone who will take the time to read and vote.
