From online entertainment pioneer, actress, and “queen of the geeks” Felicia Day, You’re Never Weird on the Internet (Almost) is a funny, quirky, and inspiring memoir about her unusual upbringing, her rise to internet stardom, and embracing her weirdness to find her place in the world. From Felicia: "The heart of my story is that the world opened up for me once I decided to embrace who I am—unapologetically. My story demonstrates that there’s no better time in history to have a dream and be able to reach an audience with your art. Or just be as weird as you want to be and not have to be ashamed. That lesson’s just as legit." Share how you #embraceyourweird in the comments of each excerpt!

Amy Singer is a passionate person. So naturally, when it is her turn to try to win over the prince of her kingdom, she stands firm on her decision, she was NOT going to try. She refused to go, but it was Osha law. Her country needed a new ruler and the prince needed a wife. One hundred girls were chosen at random to compete for the prince's heart and when Amy is chosen, her small town erupts in a unanimous agreement, she was going to win. Amy, on the other hand, was infuriated. She wasn't going to the stupid castle and she wasn't going to marry the stupid prince. And she was most definitely NOT wearing a stupid dress. Unsurprisingly though she was taken from her home under order of the king himself. If she refused him it would be considered treason, punishable by death. But something she wasn't expecting was falling in love. Watch as Amy uncovers secrets of the crumbling monarchy she calls home in Glitter and Grit. Amy is prepared for anything, except her fierce competition.

**This was a Featured Wattpad Story** One, two, three, four; I declare a suit war. In a parallel universe known as Drac, the four kingdoms (called suits) have been at war for centuries. Each suit (Spades, Clubs, Diamonds, and Hearts) is made up of a playing card hierarchy that is ruled by the King, Queen, and Jack, and every subject is born with their suit and number imprinted on the back of their neck. The number (a rounded-up average of their parents' numbers that is between two and ten) is based off their ancestors' loyalty to the Crown. There is, however, one randomly selected person in each suit that is born with an A (the symbol of the Ace) on their neck, making them the societal outcast. It is forbidden for the four aces of Drac to ever come together, because there is a myth that if all four of them join hands, they can set off an explosion that will kill all living beings except for themselves. Regardless, the Ace of Hearts, thirteen-year-old Celia Rumer, decides to try her luck in rallying the aces together after the King of Hearts suddenly commits suicide. She hopes that the threat of the four aces banding together will bring an end to the suit war, but will she be able to find the other aces without facing dire consequences of breaking the law? © Copyright - 2016 - All rights reserved.
