A LETTER TO ALL READERS

1295 Kata
Dear readers, First of all, thank you from the bottom of my heart for taking a chance in this story. Unfortunately, I will be removing this story from dreame. I created this plot for dreame actually. I wanted to try to give an exciting experience to the readers here as well as expanding my skills as a writer. This story was made with care, tailored to dreame audience but I make sure to have my own twists along the way. I was so excited when I started as I really thought this would be a fun adventure for you all and myself. But I have waited for almost two months for the contract application. I could understand if I were a new writer, it usually takes longer to sign our first story. My second, third and fourth english books' contracts all came within two weeks. And my edit.or kept in touch with me for the progress. It's not the case now. I don't know what has happened, I don't know why things are happening as they are too, but for this book, i have not heard from dreame for months and my ed.itor stopped responding to my emails, to my concerns and questions for 3 months now. I believe I have always maintained a cordial and respectful manner when I exchange emails and I have done my part in supporting this app and its community. Yet, without reason, I seem to have been discarded and ignored. Of course, I know dreame has a lot of other authors. I have no problem with the promotions. I am not entitled to promotion slots anyway and since I'm not a ftw, I understand if my books are not prioritized. I used to think that dreame would be my home app. As flawed as it is, I was already comfortable with the app and it's readers. And dreame did kickstart my adventure as a writer. That fact will remain unchanged. Not only that, my ptr application for The Emperor's Black Swan has not been approved for over a month too. It usually only takes a couple hours or at most, a week. And yet despite my follow ups, I receive NO COMMUNICATION as to why things are taking longer. I receive only silence. To me, this is unprofessional of them to do. Communication is integral for me to build trust for the app. I was left alone to wonder what the heck is going on? What did I do wrong? Is it because my writing sucks? If they would just reach out to me, maybe just reply simply like "we're working on it," or "things are taking longer now, please be patient," or "I can't answer that now but let me follow you up on it later," or even a simple rejection, things will be different. But they didn't. Since I was not given any explanation for this change in treatment despite my multiple follow up emails. And since I am not the first writer to be ignored like this, I see a pattern and honestly my trust in this app has wavered. Loll I even sent an encouraging meme to cheer up my ed.itor the first week I was ignored because I thought he was feeling down. I feel so stupid now haha I really love you guys, my readers. You are a big reason why I have continued to write this long. It has been an honor to write for you, to share laughter, tears, and all kinds of emotion. Thank you for joining my roller coaster rides. But being ignored and treated like I don't exist hurts, it's making me write so slow because my self esteem is torn lol. And I'm just a human too, if I cannot have fun in writing I don't see the point in it. Right now, writing on an app that is ignoring me is not fun anymore. Writing for you guys will always be fun though. But I feel a little stupid to stay... After a lot of thought, I will move this story to f***o (f****m) and you can continue to read this book for free there. They plan to use ads to pay the writers later on. For now, you can read stories for free. I think it's cool that I can make additional income while readers can read the work for free or by watching ads later on. It's one of the factors I chose this platform because I feel guilty for switching to another platform after dragging you guys to chapter 18 ? I am not asking you to download another app just for me. But I hope you will understand why i can no longer have it in me to continue writing here, at least for now. Don't get me wrong, dreame has been wonderful to many readers and writers. They have made a lot of new writers discoverable and they have entertained millions of reads. By all means, please continue to read on this app because there are a lot of great books here and genuinely great authors who are hard working. It's just my particular experience after a year of writing on this app is not so wonderful in the end. I will have to go to keep my sanity intact and continue to develop my writing skills for as long as time allows me to write. I don't want you to stop using this app or have a change of view just because of me. I'm just one writer, after all. There are a lot of other authors who have great reviews on dreame. I was one of them. And unfortunately, my adventure on dreame turned this way unexpectedly. It took me a while to accept it. But it's okay. Things don't always have to work. Perhaps the app and I are just not aligned anymore and I don't want to forc.e something that can't happen (don't have the time and energy for it lol). It is how it is. I have learned a lot here and met wonderful people. So it's not all bad. It's a roller coaster. I just realize that after a year, I have to find another route to keep the train going. And I shall do that since I am not chained or stuck. If you do decide to continue following this story, I will be so thankful. Mars has an important message to tell all of you with her character development and I would love any feedback you can give me. But if not, it's fine too. I hope you find a better story than this one. I'm sorry if this upsets you. It has upset me too for weeks, but now I know that it is the best decision for me. And I believe, it's the best for Mars's story too. If you have read my other stories on dreame: Basically, I'm tired of being Sania and I am channeling my inner Scarlett now, hoping that I can do what Lyria does best along the way; keeping the light on, while cursing the world like Seraphine. ??? I'm not saying I won't write on this app anymore, btw. I'll re-upload Tale Spinster later when I'm ready or I'll tell you if I decide to post it on other sites. And we'll see how things go in the future ?. I will stop saying that I will do things because unexpected circumstances like this happen and I can't predict the future. Anyway, you can follow my fa.cebook page @authorkarasmara or my ins.tagram @karasmara210 for updates or where to find my other works. Oh, also, I'm updating The Lycan King's Muse 6x a week in December on f****m ? Take care and stay safe everyone, Karasmara.
