My entry for the #PlanetOrPlastic writing contest that's hosted by National Geographic in association with Wattpad. I hope that my modest story will open someone's eyes to the major effect single-use plastics have on our beloved planet, ecosystems and consequently our lives.

However, all of this changes when an asteroid crashes into the moon, pushing it much closer to Earth than anticipated, leading to catastrophic disaster to his large coastal town as the power shuts down and the tidal tsunamis ravage their coastline. Written in a hybrid-diary format, these journal entries chronicle the fears and emotions of Neal as he and his family struggle to survive in this changed world. Each day is a struggle as the world falls further and further in decay as volcanic eruptions cloud the skies and the waves eat away at the land. No one thinks of the past anymore. The only thought on everyone's mind is about what comes after. *** Featured on Wattpad's Fresh Reads List Featured on YA's Interstellar Reading List Featured on Stories Undiscovered Reading List for December 2021 Featured on TeenFiction's Between Worlds Reading List *** 2nd Place Winner in the Summer Zodiac Awards. 2nd Place Winner in the Summer Smoothie Awards 3rd Place Winner in the Hidden Gems Awards. 3rd Place Winner in the Sunflower Awards. *** Posted on RoyalRoad

After major coastal cities sink to the bottom of the ocean at the end of the twenty-first century, the richest inhabitants of Earth escape the planet to build new colonies in a distant solar system. Thirty six light years away from the Milky Way galaxy, centuries have passed and humanity is well established. Among the most notable establishments is a prestigious university for the study of alien biology. Moira, a girl with a pervasive developmental disorder, but a talented student nonetheless, navigates the challenge of interplanetary university life as she researches a rare and endangered species. When a deeper threat emerges that challenges the existence of these creatures, she must team up with her classmates and find a solution to a problem much bigger than they could ever hope to be. ***** Credits: The cover is courtesy of the brilliant @vertigo_moon from The Vertigo Graphics while the line editing/proofreading/grammar check was done with a lot of input from Halyn Bleiz a.k.a vin_elend from the Floret community and Katie Marie from the Coven of Bookworms community. They have my gratitude. The blurb was written with some help from @RowanCarver and I am thankful for her feedbacks.
