Hi!
I don't know how to start this off but basically if you haven't been following me for the past couple months then you wouldn't know that I am currently writing my first self published novel!
This is a very scary and exciting time but for that to happen, my wattpad books do need to come down. I know how sad and heartbreaking this must be but it really does need to happen and I promise I'm not doing this to make you purposely upset!
You're all going to want an explanation so here it is:
If people can read my work for free, the chances are they are not going to want to pay for it. Wattpad has been such a fun journey for me and I've met many amazing people through this app and I am so grateful for that. Honestly, without writing here first, I doubt I'd be working on my first self published book now. But for this book to be received and read in the way I am hoping, I feel like I need to not have this wattpad connection. Many amazing authors have self published books through wattpad but wattpad has never been the end goal for me. I've always wanted to do something bigger and better and for me, this is it. This is the decision I feel is best for me. And I truly am so sorry for this. It's honestly heartbreaking for me as well. Wattpad was where this all started—with Draco Malfoy fanfictions lol. But then Winter happened and it actually did sort of, in a way, change my life so thank you for that! It may not be my best writing but it's a book that I know is very special to many of you!
I hope you don't stay cross with me for too long because this isn't the end of my writing journey. In fact, it's the start. I hope my next book brings you the comfort and joy and happiness that my wattpad books have. This book really is so much better and I really love it more than anything and I really hope you feel the same way.
If you have any questions feel free to message my Instagram, I answer all dm's I get!
But anyway, to wrap this up, thank you so much. Really, from the bottom of my heart. I don't think I could do this without the amazing support and encouragement I've received on this app. And this app is a fucking warzone so also, thank you for making my time on here so enjoyable and fun <3
The books will come down in MAY 2024! Not sure on a date just yet but I'm posting this now as an official pre-warning since I get asked every single day about this so I'm just putting this out now 💕
I hope to see you in the next one, love ya always, Ruby xoxo
