FAQ (please read before commenting)

—can you please republish *insert story* on wattpad?

the answer is, unfortunately, no. i'm leaving wattpad completely, and i want all of my works on ONE platform. that way, if i get notifications about it, i won't have to juggle two platforms in order to read through feedback or comments.

also i nearly broke my back reorganizing this fic on tumblr so i'm def not gonna undo all that work by republishing on wp lmao

—i don't know how to use tumblr

well, i didn't know how to use wattpad three years ago lol. you can learn to use apps. we're in a generation full of technology, so i'm sure you can manage. if not, i have a tutorial down below so FEAR NOT

—i'm not allowed to download tumblr/i can't download another app

tumblr is an excellent website as well! you can easily make an account there. i recommend the pc version, but the mobile website works fine too

—are you really leaving wattpad?

yes. i wanted to leave a year ago and i was planning to do so in 2021. but when covid-19 hit, i figured i could make do of my extra leisure time and start up my tumblr platform a bit earlier than planned

—why are you leaving wattpad?

i mostly feel as if i've outgrown wattpad. but i'm also not a fan of the immaturity i've seen on this app. i've had a lot of uncomfortable encounters in the past, so i'm leaving also to join a more mature community

—why tumblr though?

ohohohoho. a lot of reasons. here:

WHY I'M MOVING TO TUMBLR

—oneshots are for me

i hate dragging things on. i was never really a novel writer, too. i've always had an affinity for short stories and tumblr serves as the better platform to post oneshots!

—tumblr allows me to customize everything

and by everything, i fucking mean everything. i literally coded my own website! i chose the design, the colors, the pictures, the layout!! i feel like my tumblr platform is a lot more specialized—it feels unique to me and only me. plus,,, as a hoe for organizing, i'm able to organize everything any way i want it to be! idk about you but that shit excites me a LOT

—i read more on tumblr

i've been reading more on tumblr since two years ago, actually. the only time i spent on wattpad was to read comments, respond to messages and post updates. i felt like it was time to migrate over to the platform i used more. i also accumulated a big ass list of authors i really love on tumblr! i'll show you how to find that list, later

—tumblr has a better built-in communication program

by that, i mean that it allows you, the readers, to ask questions to the authors! there's a wonderful system called asks. more about that later

—tumblr is twitter & wattpad's child

okay though i'll be posting a lot of writing on tumblr, tumblr's literally not just for writing. you can post graphics, art, videos, audio AND FUCKING MORE. it's a great way to socialize and meet new friends based on your specific interests
