Does anyone know of the author and their stories? They write stories of werewolves.... But they are mostly based on the category of BL.... There are many stories that the author has written.... I can't seem to find either the author's profile or their books.... This author mainly writes werewolf stories but there are few stories that are not based on the werewolf packs.... If I remember correctly all the werewolf packs that this author has written are all interconnected.... 
          
          Initially the stories were not mpreg.... After some stories this category started occurring if I remember correctly this too first story is like the Alpha is the mayor of the city that is made moves into and the Alpha came to introduce the person that has came into his city and but he find out that it's made or something like that similarly like this there is one stories in which the maid has twin step siblings....
          
          If one knows of these stories all the authors name could you please refer to me I am not able to find this author anywhere in my profile I don't know where it has gone....

NOTICE OF REMOVAL:
          
          In 2022, I will be removing the following stories from Wattpad:
          * By Appointment Only - https://www.wattpad.com/story/150431355-by-appointment-only-book-1-grace
          * The Prince of S'Idiaz - https://www.wattpad.com/story/74153023-the-tales-of-talyn-1-the-prince-of-s%27idiaz
          * His Forever Guy - https://www.wattpad.com/story/24107662-his-forever-guy-the-forever-series-book-1-updated
          * A House Called Harmony - https://www.wattpad.com/story/6218484-a-house-called-harmony
          
          This is because, as I've been told my multiple agents/publishers, a story published on Wattpad is considered PUBLISHED. This means, when you submit somewhere else, they probably won't touch it with a barge-pole, (unless *they* came to *to*) because it's considered a PREVIOUSLY PUBLISHED book. The same as if you published it with a publisher or self-pubbed on Kindle.
          
          For this reason, I'll no longer be posting any NEW stories, and I'll be taking down books that I want to eventually publish. FREE stories - the Royal Series shorts - as well as my MF works (Belesone, Avelina, Sold, Devereaux) will remain as they are.
          
          WARNING: You will only have until Jan 31st to finish to read these stories, before they're removed. I'm sorry for the short notice, but if I don't do it now, I'll forget and never do it.

ElaineWhite

It is now Jan 31st 2022, and these stories have been UNPUBLISHED!

F.A.Q.
          
          What happened to Faithfully?
          (a) It has been extensively rewritten into a super-novel called Paper Love. It has been edited a dozen times, and submitted for publishing. I have to wait 4-6 weeks to discover whether it's been accepted. If not, I have another publisher to submit it to.
          
          Will you be republishing Evanders?
          (a) Yes and No.
          I will eventually do the same to Evanders as I did to Faithfully, aka extensively re-writing, editing, and re-working the trilogy. I have hopes of forming it into one super-novel, but it depends how it goes when I start editing it.
          No, because I will not be reposting Evanders to Wattpad.
          Reworking Evanders is a job for 2022, because I have other priorities this year.
          
          Will there be more books in the Talyn series?
          (a) Yes and No.
          Yes, I have always intended to finish the trilogy. I even have plans for a spin-off tirlogy.
          No, because I simply don't have time. I can't guarantee when I'll have the time to completely re-read Books 1-2 and pick up the thread to finish Book 3. Probably not until late 2022, at the earliest.
          
          Why have you removed so many books from Wattpad?
          (a) For one simple reason - in the last 4 years, almost 3-times as many traditional/indie publishers see Wattpad as a form of "publishing". When you approach a publisher, you must mention the book was on Wattpad, and they consider that as published. This wasn't the case when I started publishing, but has become increasingly more common.
          I once asked if I could keep my story on Wattpad, and publish it, and the publisher gave me a very rude reply that I can't have my cake and eat it too. Which, I found unnecessary. But, that's the attitude of most publishers now.
          
          So...to recap.
          Talyn WILL eventually get finished.
          Faithfully will SOON be republished as Paper Love.
          Evanders WILL eventually get finished, and rewritten.
          And...I will probably remove more books from Wattpad, in the future, if I ever intend to publish them. Sadly, that's not a choice but a necessity.

ElaineWhite

P.S. I hadn't planned it, but I took ill in August/September and had time on my hands.
            
            I re-read Tales of Talyn Book 1, only to discover Book 2 has about 12 chapters already written. The book is halfway complete, and I've added a few chapters this week, only to discover that I'm still not well enough to be writing all day.
            
            BUT, until this week, there was no plan for how to take the books forward. No plan of what the last half of Book 2 entailed, or what Book 3 would look like. I now have that. It's just unfortunate that I can't write it, yet.
            
            I think this will probably be one of my first projects of 2022, before I forget all the details of the series, all over again. But, don't hold me to that.
            I have A LOT going on, and my super-secret plan to have Paper Love released soon might/possibly not have worked out. I'm now one-day past the end deadline of hearing back from the place I sent it to, but I'm going to give it another few weeks, in the vain hope that I'm wrong. x

Hey I just finished 'The Tales of Talyn 1' and wonder now if there will ever be another part or if you discontinued the intended series? I really enjoyed the book and would love to read what you wanted to write in following books.
          Anyway Thanks for the lovely read.

ElaineWhite

@Wilma_vnd No problem. Thank you so much for being interested, and for your patience. x

@ElaineWhite Thanks for your reply. I understand the difficulties and will try to patiently wait for updates on this series.

@Wilma_vnd Hi, thanks for stopping by! Yes, I do hope to eventually finish the Talyn trilogy. However, I have a really full-plate ATM with other books getting published, so it's taken a back seat. Really, really, far back. I'm hoping to get round to completing the trilogy some time next year, 2022, but that depends on how my other publishing work goes. Covid hit everyone hard, and it really delayed the publishing schedule so I may be rushing to catch up next year.
            I'm so glad you enjoyed the story. I hope I can (soon!) return to Talyn, to give it the ending it deserves.

Hey I just found you the other day and I have started reading your book " losing her wings " but I am a little confused because in the summary or discription of the book you have been a girl named veronica but in the story it's Skyler so what I am wondering is these two , different characters or the same and you just made a mistake in the summary ? Sorry if the question is a little weird 

StrawberryMoosse

@ElaineWhite oh I see , can't say I don't love the Wattpad free to read feature . Lol 
Reply

ElaineWhite

@violetlilac10 Afraid not. I don't really publish MF anymore. Plus, it's actually a good 10 years old, so I would have to do extensive re-writes to get it into publishing shape. But, the bonus of that is that it will always be free-to-read on Wattpad. x

@ElaineWhite  is losing her wings a published book or something you might be willing to publish in the future or something else ?

UPDATE for 2021.
          
          Paper Love (aka Faithfully) is cursed. Cursed, I tell you!
          Okay, so not actually, but it's close. While I DID do MASSIVE edits to it, at the tail-end of last year, I got it down from 200k to 170k. Which is STILL too long for my publisher.
          However, while I'm trying to find a way that I approve of, to remove scenes that will cut it down - or, God forbid, hack away at edits - I came up with a wild idea. I'm not going to tell you what it is, yet, because it will be one massive surprise, if I manage to pull it off. But, it means that while I still need to do a FINAL edit of the book, I will be submitting it somewhere, as is. I have my fingers crossed it's what they're looking for.
          
          As for other works...I've had a look and it appears Shadow and Shade isn't being read at the moment (?) so I'll be taking it down. I've finally gotten round to doing my intense edits on the series it was slotted into and I'm going to be submitting it to a publisher within the next 3 months. (I say 2, because I still have other work to finish, plus I need to type up my edits made this last month, and that all takes time)
          For now, I'll be removing Shadow and Shade, as Wattpad is still considered "published" and no publisher would allow it to remain up, while being part of a published series.
          
          As for other work...I'm ticking along. Working on edits for the last few books of Surviving Vihaan, so I hope that means once my editor has them, Book 2 will be published. I've got big plans for Paper Love, and Shadow and Shade will experience a massive make-over in my trilogy Of Gods and Kings, so keep an eye out for that. I'm also hoping to revamp the Evanders trilogy into a YA novel, some time this year.
          
          Keep your fingers crossed for me (and for Paper Love!)

ElaineWhite

@_Crystalstone_ Hi! I'm glad you like it so much, but...a while back, I rewrote parts of it to include in a trilogy and it's now the final book, so...major spoilers for the first two are within. However, I'm planning to submit the series to a publisher in the next few months and it can't be on Wattpad for that to happen. I'll leave an update here, whenever I hear back about my submission, but it will be a while. At least Summer before I get an answer. x Thanks for reading x

Hello! May I ask what happened to the book Faithfully. I read it a long time ago and I really want to read it again. I hope your doing well!

ElaineWhite

@staystrong0315 Hi! Thanks for asking.
            Short version - I took it down to have it published, but it was over 500 pages and no publisher on the planet will accept a book that big. lol. I've been working on editing it down to the right length, but it took a lot of time and some re-writing. I'm *almost* at the stage to submit it to my publisher, so fingers crossed I can get it finished this year, and published next year.
            Long story? See the FAQ's about Paper Love at the top of my profile. It goes into depth about the changes.
            Thanks for asking! I'm hoping it won't take long to get the (improved) story back into the hands of all the readers on Wattpad who made it a Watty Award winner. x

FAQ's About Paper Love
          
          Has the plot changed?
          Yes and no. The story has become more logical, legal and fits into the realistic expectations of adoption/foster care for Scotland (where I live).
          There are new situations – Rocco taking classes, more flirting between Rocco/Nikau (was Donny) with love letters that relate to the new title. Situations have been adapted – the hearing dog, the final revelations about Beau, Rocco's parents backstory.
          I removed Dominic being a douche, and reworked the ending. Rocco's part in the hospital has gone. Latimer does NOT date.
          
          Are the characters the same?
          Yes and no.
          The central characters - Rocco, Latimer, Dominic and Chandler remain. Some name changes have been made, e.g. Donny has become Nikau and has a stronger story.
          Jefferson has been removed. He came across as creepy, so I removed him. He's been replaced with Sebastian, who is a Community Liaison officer, who plays interpreter and liaison with social services. Kit has gone.
          Arthur is Rocco's social worker. Steve and Henry are homeless teens who took care of Rocco on the streets. Lucy is a new friend, who is deaf and in his classes. Pat is a hearing-dog trainer and friend of Nikau.
          Beau remains as the glue that holds the story together!
          
          I tried to give the story more depth, logic and romance, while adding diversity to the characters. Rocco begins the story hard and jaded, but opens up and allows himself to be soft and honest, to be the young kid he really is. I had to add a few situations, and Steve and Henry, to make that transition make more sense.
          I hope you agree the new changes make the story better! I used the origins of Faithfully as the foundations for Paper Love. Those who loved the original book “Faithfully” will still find the bones in tact. It's just had a make-over.

ElaineWhite

Here we are again...UPDATE time!
          
          2020 has royally sucked, for a million reasons.
          
          However...I have begin editing Paper Love -- previously known as Faithfully, my Watty Award winning novel -- ready to submit to my publisher.
          The good news? I started.
          The bad news? I'm 24% into the book and I've only just got to where Latimer picks Rocco up at the orphanage.
          
          You see, when I took another look at this book last year, I realised the legality of Rocco's adoption was a bit unrealistic. So, I went back, redid a lot of research and added to the book.
          It ended up being over 200k, and...as you saw...I've added an extra 24%, at least, to the original story. Probably more, TBH. The plot took a radical shift, for the better. All the original stuff is still there, maybe moved around a bit, more legal and natural, though some of the ending has changed slightly.
          
          I can now GUARANTEE - despite the empty promises of the last year (two?) to have this done, before now - that it will be submitted to my publisher by the end of November. I say November, and not October, because I have another series that I'm working on for my editor and that may have to be finished first.
          
          I hope, and pray, this means I can wangle a 2021 or, at the very latest, 2022, release for the novel Paper Love!
