@simeongeewah It truly has sunk into the pit. Less awards, less communities, many people have left... it's terrible, and sad. I just wanted to say really quickly -- After reading your message from your book, I full heartedly agree with all you've said, and why you've gone. Strangely enough, the rise of those tropes and bad influence stories actually encouraged me to keep writing against it's growth, and I try to promote stories that are much more down to earth, telltales with meanings, and avoid the cliché's Wattpad prefers. Though it's difficult, I admit, I'm barely showing myself out more times than not because those tropes are all people love. Truth be told the real world with real books are far more mature and rigorous that the stories here, hence why I've (many times over) have been considering doing the same action you did sooner or later. But, for now, since I'm young and have many things still ahead, I'll just use Wattpad as a beginning stage for my writing career. I know eventually I'll grow out of it, but I'll keep fighting to change this place and it's oversight for the better, no matter how long it takes.

Why did you stop writing online?

It just drained me a little & I felt like I wasn’t writing what I loved anymore, so I stepped away :)
