{A #PrideatWattpad Book Club Selection} A revised version of my unsuccessful entry to the @Wattpad One That Got Away anthology. VERY loosely inspired by the movie Legally Blonde but YA and gayer with way more Black people. After Yves' girlfriend Loren dumps her for nonbinary school genius Phoenix Belmont, she decides to prove she's just as smart as her replacement by running against Loren for student body president. But her plans to use her wits to win Loren back are foiled when Yves starts catching feelings for the person her ex left her for. All's fair in love and politics, until they come to high school. © 2020-present Idris Grey

CHINESE ARYA STARK meets THE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA. *A Wattpad Featured story* When everyone wears a mask, who do you trust? In the unforgiving empire of Erden where the Imperials reign supreme, Sarna is a slave. After escaping the brothel where a man burned half her face, she is determined to lead a new life by joining Zichuan Theater as a performer. When an assassination attempt on the crown prince casts suspicion on Zichuan Theater, the fragile foundations of that new life begin to crumble. Incarcerated with a death sentence in line, she is offered a dangerous deal: the crown prince's head in exchange for Zichuan Theater's freedom. To save her theater, Sarna journeys to learn the dark art of Facechanging from a forgotten god, hides herself behind borrowed beauty, and uses her new identity to infiltrate the Jade Palace. But no godly transaction comes without a price. Not only does she find herself trapped not only in a web of court intrigue, but in a battle for control of her body and her life. As time ticks down for her theater, she must decide between her heart and her freedom, or risk losing everything she has ever loved and worked for - including her identity. Highest ranking: #54 in Fantasy (14/2/18) Cover trailer by @Abyss-of-Crazy

All of our experiences as LGBTQ+ people are different, informed by religion, culture, race, ethnicity, gender, etc. so an important part of being in a community is sharing with one another how we're navigating being queer in this world. Of course, you don't have to be queer to share in this space with us. Being an ally brings many of its own challenges, and we're stronger together. Sharing our stories is uplifting for people in darker places, and comforting to those who can relate. I'd like to thank T-Mobile and Wattpad for giving me the opportunity to bring you this short story! Hopefully, it'll inspire you to write your own stories for T-Mobile's #UnlimitedPride write-a-thon.
