APS Book One Excerpt (10)

x Taken from "Chapter 15: Time Passes." x If you would like to know more about APS, here is the WIP intro. x You can read the full chapters here. x You can find the excerpt masterlist here.

Dropping my pencil on the desk, I huffed a sigh, leaning back in my chair and glancing up at the ceiling of my dark room. My sleep schedule was screwed up beyond repair the minute PowerGen started, but why bother trying to rest when I'd wake up at five and repeat the same day all over again while running two hours of sleep? Why bother trying to fix myself now?

I slammed my book shut and stuffed it back on my shelf, where all my other notebooks sat, building up into a stack over the years. It wasn't that I liked journaling, but more that I had to — that, if I didn't, I would probably die at any minute without any remnants of my life left behind. My house was empty, and it wasn't like anyone else knew me except for the president and the other PowerGen employees. So, the only thing I could do was store my life on paper, in a bunch of shitty journals — not for anyone else to see, but for me to have some peace of my mind.

It was something I did since I was little, after I ran out of my old house that was covered in blood and death. Mom left her necklace behind, Dad left his old switchblade knife. My three sisters dropped their favorite instruments — a guitar, uke, and a flute — before they ran into the living room to where their murderers were. They left traces of themselves behind, and I'd gathered them all to keep with me. 

And now that I was constantly on-edge every single waking moment of my life, worrying what would happen next, how long my mind could last through the day, maybe it was time to wonder what I'd start leaving behind. 

Just in case I died young. Just in case these superhumans killed me before PowerGen finished its plan.

Three quick beats of shuffling footsteps came from behind, and I whirled to see a lanky man with white hair and a tank top walking across my room. 

Oh, right. Walter. The only other person in my family to survive. The one who freeloaded in my house and lived off whatever scraps I allowed him to eat in my kitchen.

As much as I pitied him, I couldn't help but think that he'd die with nothing left behind.

Wattpad's New AI-Review System and "The Purge"

source

What's Happening?

The past week or so, there have been reports of user's stories getting shadow-banned (delisted from rankings) and sometimes even removed. This is due to Wattpad's recent deployment of an AI-powered tool used by their support team. (Source) The tool is designed to aid Wattpad in flagging guideline-breaking content with manual reviews of the stories flagged. When a story gets flagged, it is "shadow-banned" (i.e. removed from rankings and searches) until it's been reviewed by staff.

If your story has been removed, you can contact Wattpad Support to appeal the decision.

Also important: Wattpad's "age of consent" rule has been updated. Previously, it followed the Canadian federal law of sixteen (16) years or older. On April 15th, 2024, the guidelines will be updated to reflect the new age of consent requirements of 18+.

That means for content including sexual acts between characters, both characters must be eighteen (18) or older. More tame acts (i.e. kissing, holding hands) between underage (16+ years old) characters is still fine and sex can be alluded to, but may not be described. Please review the News and Updates channel for the full text.

What Is The "Wattpad Purge"?

The "Wattpad Purge" is one of the terms given to Wattpad's recent surge in removing stories.

As mentioned above, the AI tool flags the content for manual review by a human. This simply means that it's the same process as before, just faster. Most likely, users will continue to encounter the same roadblocks they have before - little to no information about why their story was removed, no notification of removal, etc.

If what they said is true, the AI has no connection to the removal of content beyond flagging it.

Is this only targeting LGBT+-related content?

At the moment, this is only a rumor. There are a few reports of non-LGBT+ stories being shadow-banned. However, plenty of authors have reported their LGBT+ stories have been affected. I, personally, have had my LGBT+-related content shadow-banned, though I've noticed my favorite author's are not (albeit, they are popular stories).

What can I do?

Realistically? Not much. Wattpad's support team are notoriously slow and often times actually unhelpful. You can contact Wattpad Support and ask about your works being shadow-banned, but nothing is guaranteed.

But, what you can do - and this is unanimously recommended by old-timers like me - is, please for the love of God, BACK UP YOUR STORIES! It is the most important thing for you to do for any kind of projects, not just writing. Back it up! Save it on a flash drive, the cloud, on an external hard drive, CD, tape, whatever you have! Heck, write it down in a notebook if you have to!

Write it off Wattpad, copy and paste it to there later. (Related: u/Anna__V's "PSA: Don't Write on Wattpad") There are a variety of programs you can use! Microsoft Office (Word online is free), Google Docs, Apple's Pages app, LibreOffice, etc. Someone was even advertising a program they were working on (Sonovel), and it cloud saves! For more recommendations, please check the Writing Resources document.

Forget it, I'm leaving Wattpad!

For my serial fiction project, I’ve been titling the chapters in the style of “In Which…” generally describing something that happens in a vague or mysterious way.

But as the author, this is hilarious. Because I open the draft and my chapter title placeholders are

Chapter 8: In Which ?????
