This is a hard post to make. Since reviewing Wattpad's newest update, I have realized that this platform is no longer for writers or readers. When they added the Creator's Program, it was fine. Putting Ads in stories was manageable. Now they are turning around and banning the very genres and themes of stories that made them popular and gave them fame and I simply cannot continue writing for them.
After careful consideration, I will be removing any drafts or notes and moving them to Ellipsus. As for my stories, I will finish anything I have started but will post no new stories. It breaks my heart to see such censorship on a site that claims to support creativity and I would love to come back if that censorship is removed. I started creative writing because of Wattpad and have fallen in love with it and can say that my ability to read and write has become something I am proud of.
Do not worry, though, I will continue to write and post stories on Archive of Our Own (AO3) and Tumblr. You can find the link to my Tumblr on my profile and other links on my Tumblr profile.
Don't stop reading. Don't stop writing. Don't be normal.
Humbly yours,
Anaphora
