  Hello,
  I tried to transfer my domain https://writing-stuff.com to BlueHost.

  However, I made a mistake, and end up removing the domain.
  Is there anything I can do to recover the domain ?

  Thank you !
  Vailalex.

  Hi Vailalex, yes, we’ll get that restored for you shortly. If necessary, may we restore the connected site?

  Once that’s done, you’ll need to then update the name servers like so:
  https://wordpress.com/support/domains/change-name-servers/

  And then you can transfer the registration itself once the domain is 60 days old:

  Yes perfect !
  You can restore the connected site if needed.
  I’ll do the necessary updates after that.

  Thank you.

  Thanks for confirming.

  I have restored writing-stuff.com to your account and you can confirm here: https://wordpress.com/domains/manage

  As mentioned above, you can add the domain name server (NS) addresses that your new host provides, and this will connect your domain the site you have there. https://wordpress.com/support/domains/change-name-servers/

  Hope that helps. Please let us know if you have any more questions.
