Please see my message on Quotev: https://www.quotev.com/selenasenpai/journal/9678120/Thank-you After reading various comments on my older stories which had gained a lot of attention on Wattpad, I agree that especially my works that I had written when I was in late-middle school/early high school were just cringy and plain awful. Like with my Black Butler and Naruto stories- I had never really put any planning or true thought when writing them out. I hate the way were written and the flow of the story were just too forced or VERY sloppily and hurriedly written most of the time. One comment that stuck out to me said something like "I can't believe I liked this crap when I first read this five years ago", and this person was just sort of going through their saved library after being away from Wattpad for a while. I agree with them. I really do! I really hadn't written much new things in the past couple of years (I would say my peak writing times was during the height of the COVID pandemic of course), and anything new that I put out were just in my drafts from a while back. It's just crazy how a person's perspective changes in like five years. i.e. I actually used to think that some of my writing was actually GOOD when it wasn't lol. I've also been fighting a losing battle with Wattpad over shit that I just don't want to care about anymore (for example people stealing my stories word for word). And truth be told, I haven't even read a story on Wattpad for a HOT minute now....or even any of my fanfiction accounts. Life has just been too busy (but not in a bad way, I promise!). So basically, the reason I took down my stories is because they are just an embarrassment to keep on the internet and I wanted to spare people from ever reading those trashes again. Please go read something better (not that there's much good books on Wattpad in general....) and thank you for all the support on them over the years! :)

@xXxYoursTrulyxX hey, I understand you completely. There are loads of books I loved reading when I was 16 but now, being in my twenties, I re-read then and compare my own understanding of literary works. Perspectives change but we shouldn't be rude to anyone who invested time to create a beautiful story. That being said, I really enjoyed a few of your stories. "Business Rivals" with Shikamaru and Sasuke was the first book I read and I LOVED IT. Because it was funny and dramatic! Tastefully written. Your stories were a bit different and it proves how imaginative you are. I hope your writing skills develop, and that, if you feel like so, one day you might start publishing stories again on Wattpad. BTW. There aren't many good stories on this platform. And many times I started reading a book only to lose interest by chapter 3. But I've found quite a few that are outstanding! From the plot to the writing style! Anyway, wish you all the best ! I really liked your works :)
