A little note to everyone who has been here with me
          	
          	I just wanted to share something with all of you because I know I've been much quieter here lately.
          	
          	When I started writing and sharing my stories on Wattpad, I was in a completely different place in life. I was here regularly, writing, interacting with readers, replying to comments and messages and enjoying every little part of this space.
          	
          	Things are a little different for me right now.
          	I'm going through quite a lot personally and honestly, I don't always have the energy or state of mind to come here, write, respond or interact the way I used to. Sometimes I may disappear for a week or months also.
          	
          	I hope you won't take that personally.
          	
          	I have always been someone who believes that we don't really know what another person is carrying behind the things we see. And perhaps that's one of the reasons empathy, kindness and compassion find their way into my stories so often.
          	
          	Right now, I'm asking for a little of that same understanding for myself.
          	
          	I don't want to explain everything that is happening in my personal life and I don't think I should have to. I'm still trying to deal with things, find some balance and get myself back to a place where I can enjoy writing rather than feeling like I have to be present here.
          	
          	So, if you don't hear from me for a while, please know that it isn't because I don't appreciate you or the love you have shown my stories. I do. More than I can put into words.
          	I am simply a human being before I am a writer and sometimes life requires me to step away for a little while.
          	
          	I hope you'll give me that space without worrying too much about where I've gone.
          	I'll come back when I can.
          	
          	And until then, thank you for being here, for reading my stories and for giving me the kindness and understanding that I've always hoped my writing could inspire in others.
          	
          	Take care of yourselves. ❤️

Hi, author, how are you?
          
          Well, as I had already come here to ask your permission for a friend of mine to translate your story into Portuguese and you didn't return with an answer saying you wouldn't like it, we'll translate it into Portuguese and when you want this message and want to know I'll send it to you, but making it clear that we'll translate it into Portuguese because your stories are very good and captivating, and if you want we'll leave your @ in the translation!!! Anyway, I hope you don't have problems and if you do, you can talk to me.

@ParMithee Remembering that at this moment I withdraw my request to translate some of your stories, because you find it disturbing and the way I expressed myself. And again I make it very clear that we don't post ANYTHING about her, we just disclose it for other people to come and get to know her stories right here on your profile

@ParMithee Hello, you finally showed up and I hope things in your life work out.
            
            But I'll be honest with you! We don't publish anything about your stories and you can rest assured. And about the message up there where I "say" that we were going to translate was just to leave it in case you showed up, and didn't see my first message asking for permission, and since you didn't leave your X here I believe you don't have it and the desire we were trying to translate this work was huge. But as I said in the message "if you don't allow it we will delete or give up" but we didn't even start to tell the truth, we were waiting for you, and since you are the author you have every right to deny it. And anyway I apologize if at some point I let it seem that we were going to do this without giving you the credits or if I expressed myself badly. And please don't find my message disturbing (I thought I had said something wrong) and if one day you allow the translation into Portuguese I thank you making it clear that the credits will be all your obvious.

@Nalicee_23 Hi. I have just logged into Wattpad today after several days and honestly, your message was quite upsetting to read.
            
            I understand and appreciate that you and your friend like my stories enough to want to translate them into Portuguese. I genuinely appreciate that someone would want to share my work with more readers.
            
            However, I need to be very clear about something. I did not give permission for my story to be translated. The fact that I did not respond to your earlier message cannot be taken as permission or as a "yes."
            
            I have already mentioned that I have been dealing with a lot personally and have not been able to be active on Wattpad or respond to messages. People have their own lives, circumstances and things happening outside this platform and sometimes not responding simply means that they are not in a position to respond.
            
            Asking someone for permission means waiting for an actual answer. Silence cannot reasonably be treated as consent, especially when the work belongs to someone else.
            I would have appreciated it if you had simply waited for my response rather than deciding that, because I hadn't said no, you could proceed. I hope you can understand why that distinction matters to me as the author.
            
            At this point, I am not giving permission for my story to be translated or published elsewhere. Please do not proceed with the translation or distribute it in any form.
            
            I am not saying this because I don't appreciate your interest in my stories. I do. But I need my boundaries as an author and as a person to be respected.

Hi, author, how are you? So I would like to know if you would let me make an adaptation of 3 of your stories, because I loved each of them and talked about them with a friend who is translating into Portuguese, and as her stories are captivating and she was also interested she asked me to come to ask you if she can do this translation from English to Portuguese, with all her copyrights.
          
          Can we please translate into Portuguese?

Her boss, her secret wife 1 and 2.
            
            And between silence and us
            
            These are the stories we would like to translate into Portuguese with your permission.
