It's a strange new world right now, and like a lot of you, I was not all that prepared for it.  So, in an effort to keep myself sane I've decided to write down the not-comings and not-goings but the staying put and the new discoveries to be made as we all hibernate for a while.  Some things are funny, some are definitely not.  Let's look at them together, because we're all in this together.All Rights Reserved

The Secrets of a Nation by ladyluckassassin

It was a normal nation meeting. They held one annually at least 3 times a year. However, this meeting ended up turning the world on their heads. Their parents, the ancients, who have long since passed on cannot stand to watch their children suffer. With this a plan is formed to help, even if only just a little. A messenger from the ancients arrive with a book and wishes of happiness for the nations. They're stuck with no way out, in a space where time is separated from reality. They only have one way to leave, and that is to read. Through this book the true personality of the nations shine through. The misunderstandings explained, the hidden emotions revealed, their stories told. 37/37 Started late 2017-completed March 18, 2020

The Story Doesn't End With the Book by MayoLenaS

At the beginning of the year, I was so confident that everything would turn out perfectly. It was supposed to be a great year. Full of potential. But no matter how many 'real life' stories you read, they never actually prepare you for real life. When I crashed into 2020, there wasn't a soft landing. No signs telling me where I should be going next. I was on my own. Welcome to the story of 2020. Real life. A year that changed everything...and nothing.

Keeping Up With the Sammy by SamanthaMichelle0

Hello! My name is Sam and, surprise, I write! Instead of throwing another common Wattpad teen romance your way, I decided to use this commonly used website as a journal for everyone to judge me! So if you want to read about my weird crazy life or just wanna dive into something a bit relaxing to take away the stresses of your day, I welcome you here to my little corner. Snuggle up and enjoy 💜 And as always, Stay Lovely ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 09/24 Hey, it's me Sam again, but four years later from what you just read this thing is essentially a blog, let's be honest, but hey, maybe if you're into that we can have a laugh together. And if you're about to swipe out this because this isn't very Wattpad aesthetic, I understand, I hope you have a great day, and again, Stay Lovely

It just felt right because It was unnecessary drama. by Left_right_goodbye

Well, this is a journal, so you found it. Can I say Happy reading into my life? The life of a kid who hates love. This is a love story, darling. Well, I don't know about you but I hate school, I have been told it is a place to mingle with good souls and create moments to cherish and to get yourself educated. It is a place for youth to strive and bloom into respected beings. It is a sanctuary of sanity. If you ask me, school is the definition of drama as it is the birthplace of drama. Youth is the ambassador of chaos, you can either make the chaos good or bad, worth the pleasure or the very cause of death. Life is too short to live with a sane mind, there is no harm in breaking rules to live life the way you want as long as it makes you good. As with any classical young adult romance, this book is filled with horny, hormone imbalance, chemical imbalances, not loved and very well-loved, mature(childish), caring(cruel ) teenagers. All of this drama only started because of one guy, Mark Austin Jawa, the golden boy of Winter Abyss High School. Maybe Mark had nothing to do at all.It was just about 4 kids learning to live Did I forget to say, there are inhuman beings as well in this story? There are romance, drama, revenge, supernatural, chaos, lust, betrayal, hate, friendship, mental health issues, Johnny Christopher Depp || fan and hater, selenophile, diversity of nations and their skins and of course, there are gays. There are also LGBTQ ++ in this pure chaos-filling story of 21st-century humans and the Novel Coronavirus 2019 Disease better known as Covid 19. Oh, I almost forgot, this tale is even more screw up than the famous love story of Romeo and Juliet by William Shakespeare.

Quarantine || ImAllexx by katluvee

You and Alex had been talking on and off online for quite some time after he reached out to you. He invited you out to the UK to finally meet in person and spend some time together. That was when the virus hit and lockdown came in effect. This story is an ImAllexxXReader fanfic but I will give the main character the name Nora since I don't like writing "y/n" in stories. But you can just replace the name with yours like you would with y/n anyway. 🏅 1- #imallexx 🏅 1- #alexelmslie 🏅 1- #willlenny 🏅 1- #CommentaryCrew 🏅1- #theeboys 🏅 3- #eboys 🏅 1- #jamesmarriott

Purposefully Accidental: The Interlude by numbereddays

I'd dreamed of weddings before, in my youth; and in every scenario, I had always thought it to be the happiest day in my life: surrounded by my closest friends and family and laughing in my gorgeous white dress with flowers in my hair. Not like this: nauseous from cancer-fighting chemicals and wearing a cheap thrifted dress that I'd worn to an orientation week party, my hair thinning and unkempt. We returned home as husband-and-wife. I was Hannah Archer now. It didn't sound right to my ears. Or: It was 2020 and Hannah Taylors' whole world was crashing down around her. --- An companion piece to Purposefully Accidental; contains major spoilers. - - DO NOT READ THIS IF YOU HAVEN'T READ PURPOSEFULLY ACCIDENTAL - -

Quarantine Days by Peachesandcreamss

After the outbreak of COVID-19 we are told to practice social distancing, and we have been told to stay at our homes. The first few day were good and pretty relaxing until I started getting bored, so I am writing this book more of like a diary about what I do and what am I aiming to do tomorrow and if you guys are also bored you can share about your day in the comments.
