Hello everybody!
This is my entry for National Geographics writing contest: Planet or Plastic.
The contest focusses on the devastating impact of single-use plastics - a subject which I personally feel very strongly about. Plastic pollution is a global issue and I believe that we all have a responsibility to change our ways and save the oceans before it is too late.
Our choices matter and together we CAN make a difference. But we have to act now!
.....
If you are interested in entering the contest, there is still time. Go to National Geographics page and read the rules and guidelines for the contest. Deadline for entering is December 30th.
Good Luck to everyone who enters.
Our voices will be heard!

Looking For Hope
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.

Avani Earthborn |:|TEL-1|:| ✔
Avani looked at the pizza store in front of her. Many passed by her, giving her glares and weird looks but Avani didn't care. All she could think about was food. And how her own step-mother disowned her. And the nurse's horrified face. And how warm her toes would be if she had just one match. Sighing, she walked to her corner around the garbage dump of a random store and laid down. She shut her eyes, not wanting to open them ever again. -ˋˏ✄┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈ Avani was just an ordinary girl, living in an ordinary life That is until she started barfing up garbage, oil, and plastic. Her own step-family left her with no money, no water, nothing to survive. No one wanted her, especially if she was a freak. Pollution, pollution, and pollution. How can you stop that? There's no way. But then, a shiny object dropped from the sky, and that was the answer to her question. But she had a weakness. And that weakness will bring her down, it'll destroy her inside and out. If she doesn't learn to control it, it'll control her. But there was something she didn't get. How will she save the world if she couldn't even save herself? »»----------------------«« ~(TEL)The Elements of Life series: 1~ A mix of Fantasy and Mystery Impressive rankings: #1- ecosystem (05/01/20) #3- shawrocketprize (04/25/20) #1 - saveourplanet (05/14/20) #5 - pollution (01/15/21) #1- shawrocketprize (06/17/20) Awards won: Orca Awards 2020, 3rd place in fantasyComplete
