Hi fellow readers, it's been a while since I last gave an update.

While usually these kinds of posts are about story updates or perhaps happy news of announcements, unfortunately, I give an update regarding an unfortunate situation.

As you may all know by now, Tapas has announced that they will be shutting down soon.

While I haven't posted anything new in a year and I no longer actively write, I still wanted to speak about this and gave an update on where my stories can be read from now.

The news of Tapas shutting down came as a surprise for many including myself. As both an author and especially a longtime reader on Tapas, I can't help but be disappointed and saddened at the news.

Tapas has been home to my stories for 5 years now and plenty of wonderful novels and comics I got to read through the years. So it's really unfortunate that this is all coming to an end.

Nonetheless, I'll always be thankful for Tapas for giving an opportunity to small creators like me to share their own stories and get to build audiences and have readers from all over the world.

In my case, I'll always be thankful I got to start my journey as an author on Tapas and how much I got to grow ever since.

And really so much has changed since I posted my first story Game of Love 5 years ago on Tapas. Nowadays, I've posted over 10 stories of various genres over 3 platforms, gathered over 50k of reads and wrote over 1 million words.

For that I would like to thank every readers that read my stories and that supported me through the years. Always know that it was really appreciated.

Where else can we follow you and what is the future of my stories going forward?

Already since a year ago I've quietly quit writing and my work as a creator, however despite that, I had made the quiet decision to keep all my stories publicly available to read and free as well forever.

But of course now with the closure of Tapas, I am obligated to act on this and make changes. Indeed, regarding that, I thought about how to proceed and as of now, I feel that it is best that sooner rather than later, I start the process of removing my stories from the platform.

While I could leave them until the closure of Tapas in March 2027, several aspects make it clear I have little reason to prolong the inevitable.

Already readers are already progressively leaving the platform, migrating elsewhere and so will I as a reader. Plus in my case, thankfully I already have all my stories 100% established on two other story platforms.

Nonetheless, despite the closure of Tapas, this isn't the end of my stories!

As suggested above, if you wish to keep in touch with my stories or me as a creator, I have the pleasure to announce that almost 100% of my novels are available on Wattpad and on Inkitt and it's 100% free! So I strongly encourage to go follow my stories over there. I've put the links of my accounts in the description below.

Of course for readers I understand it can be frustrating and challenging having to start following your favorite stories or creators over multiple platforms instead of just one but I still hope readers will not hesitate to follow their favourite creators on their other or new platforms.

While in my case as a creator, I am thankful that I don't have to restart anew and that I already have an established audience on my two other respective platforms, most other creators are not as lucky.

Some creators will have to restart anew with new platforms and have to rebuild their audiences from scratch and that will be quite stressful and a lot of work.

In the past I've experienced re-uploading all of my stories on other platforms from scratch and working to make it fit the new platforms and it's really no small task. So I share compassion with fellow creators going through this difficult process.

Therefore, I want to remind readers that right now more than ever, it's important to follow your favourite creators and stories to ensure you keep being updated no matter what. Right now they need it the most. As a reader, I've already progressively began to follow my favourite creators and stories on their new respective homes and I sincerely hope most readers will too if possible.

With that being said, before I start the process of removing my stories in a few weeks, please don't forget to save and note down the links on where you can find me from now on, as well as other creators you like. It will be greatly appreciated amid this unprecedented change.

With all being said, I guess this means farewell to Tapas and all of you readers. Thank you for the last 5-7 years and I hope some of you will continue to follow me on Wattpad and Inkitt.
