Of Rust and Gold and Of Vipers and Saints will be officially off the site on June 24th.

@Mattman908 I came to the conclusion it’ll be best for me to continue writing them offline. I had some minor changes to make anyway, and then I’ll publish them offsite. That will likely be through self publishing as I can’t imagine trying another platform

@Poindexter any idea of what you might do with your other works you had on this account?

So.
          Of Rust and Gold and Of Vipers and Saints are back but, as I'm sure you've noticed, aren't the old versions as I had to put them back up from scratch (bye-bye old comments + that's why it didn't show back up in any reading list).
          I've put them back up and not OBS or any other story only so people who were in the middle of reading them can finish because they will be gone for good in June as per my agreement with Wattpad. 
          After that? Well, I haven't decided yet. I've made plans to do some renovating and possibly publishing the series myself but at the moment I have not considered another foster/online home for them or any of my other work that will not be coming back to Wattpad. I'm sure this isn't what everyone wants to hear but when my profile was clear and TNC was taken down I panicked. It was heartbreaking to see all my hard work and interactions with my readers disappear, but in the passing days and during the back-and-forth emails I realized that after the initial sadness, I just felt numb and that maybe this was a sign to move on. 
          
          I will continue writing and sharing stories in some capacity and at this time The Night Court will be staying a little longer than its older brothers, but certainly, no new content will be posted to Wattpad in the future.  If you have further questions or concerns, please let me know! I have other social media and a discord for one of my newer wips so I will not be hard to contact in the future.
          
          Thank you for your continued support and understanding.

@Poindexter - Thank You and I’ll check your socials. I’m not big with them anymore but, with everything happening here I’m finding many authors have a discord. Lol…. I stepped up to the plate yesterday and signed up for my own..hehe. I’m very much a private person and prefer to deal with my own drama than others so I left a lot of socials years ago. 
            Anyhow, I’ll check yours out and I wish you the best in your endeavors! ❤️

@MysticGrl1 I’m so sorry you had to find out like this! I would suggest following my other socials if you’re at all interested on my books “new homes” when I decide.

@Poindexter - I have to say that reading this really sucks! I just found your profile and books, added them to my list and now I’ve had to remove them because they are going to be coming down. The other unfortunate part is that you are not the only one Wattpad has done this to! Many authors I’ve followed have left for the exact same reasons. 
            I wish you all the best in self publishing if you go that route and if you look for another place to publish your books online!  ❤️

Because of what wattpad has been doing have you thought of self publishing on amazon or posting on patreon (i believe patreon can also have free tiers if you wanted to go that route)? So many people have been losing stories and I would hate for more stories to be lost.

I haven’t made a decision yet. Moving offsite is hard because I don’t know if anyone would be interested! But I’ll let you all know soon

Ik it might come out as exaggeration but for a fact whenever I open Wattpad it's mainly to come to your books and it's kind off baffling to not find it here, hope you can drop the books soon. I really enjoy your work thanks for the hardwork.

Poindexter

Thank you. I’m waiting for wattpad to email me again and I’m keeping you guys as updated on the situation as I am

@Tyub6322 I understand this is incredibly frustrating but I am unable to do that. Hopefully WP can reimburse you
