Hello, I currently have only written on Wattpad, so this is a new thing for me, do Authors usually write A/N(Author's Notes) On their chapters on this website? Just wondering what the convention on this website was. Wanted to be sensitive to joining a new community. Does this make sense? Thanks! :D :D

Hey there!

It's up to the individual author whether they write a note or not! Some do all the time, some never do, and some do only part of the time. Personally, I like to include an author's note should there be sensitive information or background information necessary to the scene or story.

As long as it's clearly marked at the beginning/end of a piece (whichever you like!), it shouldn't cause any confusion in your readers.

Welcome to YWS, Speedstar, and I hope you have a great time!

For in everything it is no easy task to find the middle ... anyone can get angry—that is easy—or give or spend money; but to do this to the right person, to the right extent, at the right time, with the right motive, and in the right way, that is not for everyone, nor is it easy; wherefore goodness is both rare and laudable and noble.
— Aristotle
