Guys — 
          	I want to know 
          	Have you all lost interest in the novels?
          	Both novels: “Bound by Fate” and “Caught and Bowled”
          	
          	Because it took 3 weeks to meet the target for the cricketing novel (which was going so well), and Bound By Fate it’s been 3 weeks since the update and I still don’t see it meeting the target. 
          	
          	Infact — 
          	The target has been met 1 time since it started. 
          	
          	You guys need to get clear with us.
          	I deserve to know.
          	
          	Because otherwise I see no point in writing.
          	I was already writing another novel, but I paused that, in fact ended it. I also thought to bring back Threads Of Tomorrow but I dropped that plan too seeing how enthusiastic everyone is here. 
          	
          	I deserve to know what people think.
          	
          	It’s in the middle of summer / monsoon season—
          	I’m not saying people aren’t busy, but relatively people are more free right now na as compared to before, and if during now also I’m having to question what’s going on then it’s not the external circumstances but rather something going on here that’s affecting all this.  
          	
          	So —
          	I need clarity. 
          	
          	Because I’ll stop writing if this is how it is.
          	
          	You all have my novels here.
          	I’m not removing them, I cancelled that plan. 
          	So all my novels are here only.
          	
          	I don’t need to continue writing.
          	
          	
          	Please let me know.

hi author! I've been an avid reader of yours since i encountered caught and bowl one random tuesday. i usually never start unfinished books because i can't handle the suspense and yk waiting. but i loved that book so much that i decided to pick it up. I've been eagerly waiting and commenting everytime you post. i vote and wait for the next update but it seems like MY efforts and appreciation is going to waste too. i respect you and i respect your opinions about reaching the target and engagement, you deserve to get the fruit of your hardwork but somewhere along the way i feel like I've wasted my time and energy chasing a story and putting in my interest and efforts where it would always fall short infront of numbers. i always wanted to suggest this but if you truly want people to appreciate your work, WHO genuinely want to read it then post it on scrollstack or something where personally I'm willing to pay and read your work. but just because of a few numbers, i can't read a book i want and my efforts as a particular person feels like it falls short and my contribution doesn't matter. respectfully, today you lose a loyal fan and i have no hate for you in my heart, just quite disappointed. i hope you succeed and get what you work for. but i think I'll give up now. 
          best of luck.
          -a fan.

that’s so sweet!
            but yaar I know that wattpad is an escape from the real world for all of us — and I don’t think it’s fair to make people pay for it….
            
            But I also know and appreciate how much you try — I remember you properly, and it’s genuinely sad to see it still failing…
            I wish Wattpad had a close friends section where I can just upload chapters only for close friends till the time the targets get properly met and then it gets uploaded for the rest
            Coz you all deserve everything
            But because of the silent readers it always gets ruined 
            
            But I’ll definitely think about it—

Hey Guys —
          
          Sorry for the delay in the updates of Bounded by Fate and Caught and Bowled. 
          
          I’ve been crazy busy.
          The target only got met 3 days back (just so you know), so I am only 3 days late right now; I wanted to mention that. 
          
          But that being said — 
          I am delayed. 
          
          I’ve just had a lot going on, and yesterday and the day before I got to see the Indian cricket team! That was very very exciting as well!
          
          Anyway —
          Just give me till this weekend.
          I’ll update by then.  

SHRADHATWI

Author, I am a reader of yours. I am not good with giving comments. But I will try to give whenever I feel. Would you allow some weird comments?

Heaven_043

@SHRADHATWI matlab ye ki kaafi log bss emojis spam krte hai words nahi likhte aur likhte hai toh "update" ya one words spam krte hai and author ko expressive comments chahiye even if its weird but kuch meaning ho .. spamming nahi.

Heaven_043

@SHRADHATWI yes she does but object  comments that have only emojis or spam comments

hey guys —
          
          please bear with me for updates, especially caught and bowled, I’ve been really crammed with some work, back to back deadlines/assignments this week plus so many events to attend so hardly getting time for myself or even to read your comments on both novels! 
          
          so please just give me a bit — I’ll definitely update this weekend, but just bear with me!
          
          sorry! 
          
          
          ANOTHER REMINDER:
          
          Today is 10th June — I did tell you all that I’ll be removing the mentioned novels (in my other message) on 14th June and then re-uploading them on 15th with targets. 
          So please bear that in mind.
          
          Please make sure you’ve read them by 14th or else please be ready to vote and read. 
          
          Thanks!  

Naims1

Hi, any update on caught and bowled- will we be getting more chapters ??
Contestar

thewanderingquill_

@MahaLaksmi7 meaning I’ll release around 8-10 chapters of the novel and the next batch will only come once there are sufficient votes and comments on the 8-10 chapters before it
