2020 WATTYS WINNER in NEW ADULT! Oliver Ausman has been given a second chance at life, but it's hard to feel grateful when he was the one trying to end it in the first place. Returning to his normal life after being released from the hospital is hard, especially since his parent's idea of normal is made up of dinner parties, prep school, fancy suits, and fake manners-- all paired with a complete disregard for the mental health of their firstborn. He's long been fed up with it, but the final straw is when he finds out that his "father" isn't actually his father at all. Oliver decides he's had enough of the perfect facade, so he packs a suitcase and grabs his younger brother, "borrowing" his mother's car to sneak off on a trip to find his biological father. But he never expected to pick up a girl with her own similar set of problems, to be followed across the country by a money-hungry pair of criminals, or most of all, to find out that maybe this life thing isn't as bad as he thought.

How often have you felt sleepy while reading a book and how many times you eat your head trying to figure out where exactly your story has gone wrong? We all have hit a bump like this in our lives, havn't we? "She went to the bus-stop, hopped on to the bus, sat at the window seat. Then she reached school and went for her classes. After her classes during the recess, she chatted with her two best friends". Aren't you wondering why this excerpt is a plain bore? Thinking of which what is exactly wrong with it! Answer is, basically everything! Because it becomes a snooze fest when you give hourly updates to your readers. Instead of telling that your protagonist is very tensed about his exam results, why not show it. "He bit his nails and felt a growing ache within his belly, 'God please let me pass', he prayed". The magic of this is, it helps your audience feel the emotions of the protagonist. Curious to know how to overcome those aforementioned obstacles and tell a convincing tale? Worry not, help is right in your hands, well within your phone, in the Wattpad app or on your computer screen. This is a self-support book into debunking the many codes of sound story-telling that will enable you to not only master the art but also excel at it. So why the wait??

"Forever, I had stayed silent, closed off, cut by the doldrums of family politics and societal pressures. Buried under biased judgements, I dwarfed to insignificant heights. But, inside the blaze fought to seize power-an inferno. Raging flames fuelled to perfection-burning hot with wrath, scorched by hindered expectations and smothered under unrealized dreams. Beauty and the beast reside together, working in unison. When one sleeps another awakes. Every beauty has a beast, brought alive by a trigger. I was a beauty, but then shit happened. Still, I smile. I laugh. I cook. I sew. I make love. I'm a good girl. But, good girls aren't necessarily good, it's just that they aren't bad in the traditional way. ---------------------------------------------------------- "You will get used to it...just a matter of time", her mother stated. "Every girl goes through this phase." It's easier said than done. For Sreya, the statement failed to shed a warm light, never had. And growing up in Swarupnagar, a suburb in one of the most dead corners of Kolkata didn't contribute much to the situation either. Dreams aren't bound, neither by words nor by limitations. Sreya dreamt for just one thing-get out of the system and create a life of her own. But, not every dream can be fulfilled; even worse, what if they come at a cost? What happens when your past that you skilfully camouflage haunts as your worst nightmare and the institution of marriage that people hold as sacred is rigged at the very core! Set against a backdrop of Metropolitan Kolkata, this tale of lust, ambition, addiction and revenge creates a wild concoction that is sure to leave readers' minds content, fulfilled and craving for more. ---------------------------------------------------------- Disclaimer: MATURE CONTENT Start date: 13/08/2021 End date: 30/9/2021

When you were a kid, do remember those bumps and creaks coming from your closet? Do you remember the monster that lived under your bed? Do you remember him? What if I told you, he, and every monster of those tales, are very, very real. Only, they're much worse. Seventeen year-old, sailor, Rei, is about to be thrusted into a world that looks and acts the same, but is infested with demons, angels and wicked creatures of every kind. After an attack on her bus, Rei must decide if she can trust the boy with the narcissistic attitude, glowing sword and flaming green eyes when he tells her she'll be safe with him. But soon none of that really matters when she finds out agents of both sides seem to either want her dead or for...well, dinner.
