Gratitude & News:

So, first off, I'd like to give a massive thanks to those of you who supported the First Edition of The Solution. While INCOMPLETE, it reached 11.5K Views! Something I'll always be proud of.

Since 04.05.20 - 'May The Fourth' - I'm delighted to announce again that after months of restructuring, 'The Solution - Second Edition' is now COMPLETE, LIVE, and EXCLUSIVE here on WATTPAD! In an unwavering bid to become a 2020 Shortlist Finalist for TheWattys (and hopefully a Winner) I'll be promoting my dazzling debut August through September, so please support where you can - you won't regret it!

On a compassionate note, despite current affairs, it is my hope that The Solution continues to show all that is good about the land of China. 

Adults of Wattpad, the Second Edition is approximately 120K Words, in U.S. English, and still in 1st Person - Multiple POV.

PS: Sonically, I'd planned on adding a sound element worthy of an inclusive audio book. However, I've decided against it. Reason being, I didn't want denizens to choose listening over reading, and neglect the possibility of voting and commenting - of which is invaluable to the process. Therefore, in 2021, I aim to voice an audio version of The Solution - the Wattpad Third Edition.

PS-PS: for any of you kind enough to have the First Edition on a Reading List, please make way, the Second Edition is now LIVE!


Testimonial:

In a recent Wattpad Stars interview, here's what my Wattpad Bestie, @Van_Carley had to say about The Solution:

Q: 'What's a Wattpad Story you would highly recommend?'

A: 'I have a few, but I'll stick to one, The Solution by @GeekAtlas. I became friends with him back in 2012, and over the years, he's been working on this story, which was inspired by his passion for the environment and concerns with climate change... So, if you enjoy SciFi, Chinese culture, and have your own concerns about the environment, please read The Solution.'
