HEY GUYS! THIS CHAPTER WILL BE EXACTLY WHAT THE TITLE STATES :: MY REASONING BEHIND ME LEAVING WATTPAD.
(TO THOSE WHO READ THIS ON DEAR ANON, YOU REALLY DON'T EVEN HAVE TO READ THIS ANYMORE SINCE IT'S BASICALLY THE SAME THING EXCEPT FOR THE FOLLOWING 3 PARAGRAPHS. EVERYTHING ELSE IS THE EXACT SAME.)
I'VE BEEN SAYING IT HERE AND THERE RECENTLY BUT HAVE NEVER REALLY SET AN EXACT DATE FOR IT UNTIL 5 DAYS AGO. TODAY IS EXACTLY A MONTH BEFORE MY BIRTHDAY AND I THOUGHT THIS MIGHT BE THE BEST TIME FOR ME TO LEAVE WATTPAD BEHIND ME ONCE AND FOR ALL.
FOR ALL YOU LITTLE DETECTIVES OUT THERE,, YOU MIGHT'VE NOTICED THERE WAS A PATTERN BETWEEN ALL MY *STILL ACTIVE* BOOKS.. I WAS STARTING TO UPDATE LESS FREQUENTLY AND MY BOOKS ARE HONESTLY STARTING TO DO WORSE AND WORSE. BUT I GUESS I HAD MY PEAKS ON WATTPAD AND IT'S TIME FOR ME(AND MY WORKS) TO FADE ANYWAYS.
IF YOU DO KEEP UP WITH YOU, YOU MIGHT'VE BEEN AWARE THAT I HAD AN ONGOING GRAPHIC SHOP! *STRONG EMPHASIS ON THE PAST TENSE* THE LACK OF MOTIVATION FOR MY REQUESTS ACTED AS A FUEL THAT SPED UP MY *LEAVING WATTPAD PROCESS* IDK IT MAKES SENSE IN MY HEAD BUT I HAVE NO IDEA HOW TO TRANSLATE THOSE THOUGHTS IN MY HEAD INTO SMOOTH WORDS BUT I HOPE U GET THE IDEA
I'VE BEEN GETTING SUPER BORED OF WATTPAD LATELY AND ALSO MY FEED IS BECOMING DRIER AND DRIER (IT'S A SHALLOW EXCUSE I KNOW) BUT THIS HAS ALSO BEEN A REOCCURRING THOUGHT IN MY HEAD FROM TIME TO TIME :: WHAT HAS THIS MEASLY ORANGE APP BECOME TO ME? WHY IS MY LIFE AND EVERYTHING I DO CENTERING AROUND IT? WHAT WOULD I DO WITHOUT IT? WOULD I STILL BE USING WP WHEN I'M OLDER? IT HAS TAKEN UP TOO MUCH OF MY LIFE AND IS IT REALLY WORTH IT?
I'VE GAINED SO MUCH EXPERIENCE FROM TRIAL AND ERROR AND TAUGHT MYSELF SO MUCH MORE THAN I THOUGHT I WAS CAPABLE AND MADE WONDERFUL FRIENDS HERE ON WATTPAD THAT I HOPE TO STILL STAY IN CONTACT WITH AFTER THIS. HONESTLY, I DON'T THINK WATTPAD WAS A MISTAKE. IT WAS THE BEST THING THAT HAD HAPPENED TO ME AND HAS ALSO CHANGED MY LIFE, FOR THE BETTER. I'M THINKING TO EITHER GO EDIT ON INSTAGRAM NOW AND COMPLETELY SWITCH PLATFORMS AND/OR START DRAWING. SEEING ALL THOSE IBISXPAINT USERS MADE ME REALLY JEALOUS OF THEIR ADVANCED SOFTWARE AND TECHNIQUES TBH AND ALSO I'VE BEEN FOLLOWING A LOT OF ARTISTS ON IG SINCE A LONG TIME AGO (AND SOMEWHERE ALONG THE WAY) YOU CAN SEE THE INFLUENCE THEY HAD ON MY EDITS AS I CONTINUED TO CHANGE STYLE AFTER STYLE. EVENTUALLY I GOT TO WHERE I AM TODAY. MY EDITING STYLE IS HEAVILY INFLUENCED BY MY AESTHETICS AND INCORPORATES SOME TRACES OF DRAWINGS BUT I HOPE I CAN GET TO THE POINT WHERE I'M DRAWING AT LEAST 50% OF THE GRAPHIC OR EVEN TO THE POINT WHERE I CAN ACTUALLY DRAW (YA KNOW LIKE THOSE *COOL* ARTISTS ON IG)
