Time Duology #1: Time For Love 💘

Removal Notice - Removal from Wattpad

!! THIS IS NOT A DRILL !!

Some of you must've seen my announcement on my profile. And yes, it's true. It will be taken down on 28 August 2020. When I heard about the security breach recently and an app ripping off some author's books and posting them in it set me thinking...

And I made an impulsive decision. I want to take down my stories on here one-by-one, starting Monday, 10 August 2020. At first, I thought, 'I'm only posting rough drafts here, so why worry?', but then, I started getting scam DMs from another app offering me some pay for my novels. Now, that's not what riled me up, actually - not the pay. But the fact that I even got those DMs. It likely means, I'm being noticed on Wattpad. And while I feel honoured, I also realised something else: my books are likely to fall victim to the rip-off.

Now - I don't know when this issue will be resolved... or even if it does, exactly when. I don't know if any other app will start doing it, too. I don't want my babies to become victims of such plagiarism. Free distribution with my name on it - sure. But a blatant rip-off? I won't have it.

Combined with the fact that my trust in Wattpad has been diminishing steadily.

I stayed on here only for my readers. I put their needs over my insecurities.

And now, it's time to switch.

"Time For Love" will be the fourth story from my Wattpad profile to be taken down, after Friday, 28 August 2020. Those of you who are still reading or haven't got the chance to read it yet have one week to do so. After that, it will only be available on Amazon and Pothi.com. Those who have not seen the message on my profile, my sincere apologies - I had forgotten to post it here a week ago. 

I'll also be leaving Wattpad some time. 

!! END OF NOTICE !!
