WATTYS 2021 Historical Fiction winner | Writers Of The Past Series.
4000 years ago, in an empire where women were little more than flowers on the wall, one princess cemented her story in history and changed the art of writing for centuries to come.
***
Based on the real-life Akkadian princess and high-priestess Enheduanna, this novel explores the life of history's first author.
An outspoken visionary with a talent for writing down her deepest emotions, Enheduanna's life is turned upside-down when the god Nanna chooses her to become the high priestess of Ur.
As her power in the city of Ur grows, so does her list of enemies. But her own safety is the least of her worries when thousands depend on her to keep the vengeful gods happy, and their land safe.
Either way, Enheduanna is not willing to go down without a fight.
One way or another, she will carve her own path, and nobody is going to erase her from the pages of history.

Rendezvous in the Romanowskian Empire
"And... the fifth rule," he came forward, locking me between him and the slab again. "This should be the last time you talked to me like that," he lowered his face to my level, spiking my heart rate further. "Next time you rant on or call me by the name, I'll personally make sure to shut your lips," he whispered without a hint of casualness on his rugged face. "Will you follow the rules, Althea?" * * * When archaeological intern, Coretta Hayes, is transported to the fourth century BCE for a ground zero reporting, she discovers something that's unknown to the modern historians. The kingdom of Romanos. And she's over the moon when she manages to become its court writer, disguising herself behind the fake name of Althea Rosemary. But there's a problem. The kingdom's smouldering ruler, Julian Romanowski, is too interested in his newest court writer.

SILVER EYES (GXG)
[2024 WATTYS WINNER] Data predicts they will fail. Their hearts say otherwise. In a world sliced in two by a violent, massive wall, there are only two choices: struggle for survival in the dead lands of the Other Side, or surrender your identity to the data-driven Reg Society. When Grace Hayes and her brother Michael decide to cross the wall into the Reg Society, they have no idea an explosion will tear their world apart, leaving Michael stranded on the Other Side. Grace, now alone in a high-tech "paradise", is assigned as a Naval Officer. Her mission? Protect the wall. Her reality? A cold, blue-eyed superior, Heather Anderson, the woman who closed the gates the day of the attack and left her brother behind. Getting close to Heather might be the only way to uncover the truth and bring Michael back. But in a society where memories can be bought, altered, or erased, trust is a dangerous game, and falling for the enemy was never part of the plan.

****A Wattpad Featured Novel**** • • • (Book one) Many of us, have read lots of books and watched lots of movies, about a boy who dumped his long termed girlfriend just cause he fell in love with a new character. The Right Girl. When we'd realized that he had fallen in love with the main character, we all became happy about the turn of events. Just cause we'd been shipping both of them for a very long time. No one wanted him to be with The Wrong Girl, cause she was either too perfect, had a nasty character or treated everyone like trash. We all enjoyed the boy and The Right Girl new found relationship, and totally forgot that he was in a different relationship not too long ago. No one thought about The Wrong Girl, or how her life would be like after the break up. No one thought if she'd actually get into a new relationship, or stayed single for the rest of her life. I was guilty as charged, until Alex my boyfriend, decided to kiss The Right Girl in front of our secondary school and left me The Wrong Girl, to be the laughing stock to the entire students of Blossom High. • • • Eno had been the most popular girl at Blossom High School. She was like every cliché popular girls you've read on books and watched on television. She had a nasty attitude, popular boyfriend and three popular besties. Every girl wanted to be her, and every guy wanted to be with her. But her all so perfect life changed when her boyfriend Alex, kissed the one girl he claimed not to have feelings for.

The Prophecy of Water | TheWattys2018 Shortlister ✔️
[Wattys2018 Shortlist] [Bootcamp Mentorship Mentee 2020] [Insidious Awards - 1st place/Action/Adventure] "Squinty, I... Help me! Please! You have to help me!" Squinty huffed at him as the horse might snort at an annoying fly it couldn't get rid of. "A...a... an apple," he stammered. "I just... stole an apple!" ---- When water is controlled by those in power, even a mere apple can be a catalyst. For Squinty, it was the start of everything. Finding Grizzly. Losing Roko. Becoming a Vigil. Discovering she had the power to become invisible. For Nalina, the threat of a new Water War was even closer to home; her beloved brother was the one initiating it. To Drian, water formed the core of his belief system, defined who was - and was not - worthy, and justified the treatment of the underground-dwelling Wellers. An orphan girl, determined to do what was right. A princess, petitioning for peace. An abbot, torn between his religion, and his experience. Each with an Etching, a unique power that surely makes them special; a tie to something more, something extra, something beyond the Squareworld. Credits for the cover go to an absolutely amazing cover artist and fellow writer Narcisse Navarre @InkSorcery. The Prophecy of Water is ONLY available on Wattpad.
