[COMPLETED]
[WATTYS 2022 WINNER]
James Quinn can't die.  Actually... that's not true.  He's died many times - somewhere in the neighborhood of 250 - only to be reborn as himself to live his life over again.  

For millennia, he's had to endure this ceaseless existence alone.  But that all changed when Martha, his soulmate, joined him in the loop with her consciousness intact.

This is where "For Those Who Don't Believe in Love Songs" has left us.  But questions abound... Exactly how did Martha unite with James?  Can their love survive actual eternity?  And who or what is this man stumbling upon Martha's doorstep?

To reiterate, this is a novel for those who've read "For Those Who Don't Believe in Love Songs."  If you haven't, very little in it will make sense.  I've labeled it mature for language, brief sexuality, brief violence, and brief suicidal/nihilistic themes.  I'm aiming to publish each Monday, though we'll see how long that lasts.  (I... write... very...... slowly)

Thank you for reading and I adore comments in all forms.  Hope you enjoy!

The Foreigner & The Pessimist (malexmale) by OliveWalden

***Book 1 of the Soulmates Series*** In the middle of an intergalactic war for freedom and rights, there exists a distant technologically militant planet called Gav'yx, where next to becoming a soldier, finding your soulmate is everything. So much, that the first thing all Gav'yxians see upon their birth, is the image of their future soulmate on the exact day and in the exact place they're destined to meet them. However, on a futuristic earth - now called Uniterra - the idea of finding one's soulmate is a belief held by very few. Especially when it comes to seventeen-year-old Lane Nishimura, a pessimistic student in the extremely competitive space training program at Unity High, struggling with keeping the secrets of his very mysterious and dark past, his mental health, self-esteem, and slew of trust issues caused by years of failed friendships, bullying, and sub-par romances that's left him all but giving up on the idea of there ever being someone out there destined for him. And then along comes Zuuro; a lovestruck alien from the planet Gav'yx, who's long dreamed of the day he'd finally meet Lane, and of getting what would surely be his happily ever after. However, as he soon discovers, finding romance with Lane is not as easy as he assumed. Because not only does Lane not know he and Zuuro are destined to be together, but due to almost losing everything in his last breakup, and to what he's sure is just another trick being played on him by his half-brother, Darin, he's extremely reluctant to open himself up and risk getting close to anyone again. Will Lane allow love to prevail, or will his mistrust and the secrets of his past doom them before it's even had a chance? Find out, in The Foreigner & The Pessimist, the first installment in the all new Soulmates series.

A Kiss Goodnight at the End of Forever by david_hull

[IN PROGRESS] Martha and James are soulmates trapped together in a never-ending reincarnation loop. Not a bad way to spend eternity, but they wanted more. They wanted a child. Serafina is born and Martha and James are elated to love and raise her and share the new experiences we 'first-lifers' take for granted. But the universe has other plans and, at the age of five, Serafina informs them that she too has been condemned to relive her life, again and again, stuck in her very own loop. There ended Drifting Along the Infinite Spring, though questions most certainly remain. Who or what gave Serafina her immortality? Can Martha and James reconcile losing the daughter they thought they knew? And then there's the minor issue of saving the human race from its seemingly guaranteed annihilation... To reiterate, A Kiss Goodnight at the End of Forever is a sequel to Drifting Along the Infinite Spring and For Those Who Don't Believe in Love Songs before that. If you've read neither, this book will make little sense. It is not labeled mature, but there will be rare cases of language, adult situations, and violence. Thank you so much for reading! I hope you enjoy. cover by @JELyrica

Contraindication by literaturelexi

[WATTYS 2022 SHORTLIST] "Hello again, Pizza Boy?" I glanced up at him with a smile. The blood was rushing out my head but it didn't bother me. "Are you back to make another attempt on my life?" "Shut up," he fumbled, absolutely petrified. "I-I hate you!" I laughed as we were both red in the face; one more sticky then the other, "Aww, I hate you too." My hands held my non-beating chest. "It's mutual trust me. But I guess you really want your Xbox back huh?" -- 17 year-old Evelyn Gates has a quiet yet witty personality. She usually stays in the background and is mediocre at literally everything... just ask anyone. She enjoys the smell of pizza and watching Guy Fieri stuff his face with food in her free time. Oh, and there's one more thing... she's immortal. That's right, Evelyn can't die, and she doesn't know why. Her body just magically puts itself back together again after tragic incidents. She calls it a curse, but the one other person who knows about it calls it a miracle. It's not until her pizza order turns deadly and her mom's boyfriend changes his outlook on life, when Evelyn finds out that there might be some more people involved with her immortality; people who are puppeteering her life and will stop at nothing but to destroy her. - Featured on: @TeenFiction 'FunnyBones' reading list: October 6th, 2021 @StoriesUndiscovered 'The Power of Laughter' reading list: June 1st -30th, 2021 -- Since mock websites are becoming more common, unfortunately, I have to give the disclaimer that this story is only being published on Wattpad.

VANISHED (#1 in the VANISHED series) #NaNoWriMo2019 ✔ by StephRose1201

**WATTPAD HQ EDITOR'S PICK for August 2021** *FEATURED IN THE "CHILLS AND THRILLS" READING LIST ON WATTPAD'S "Paranormal" page!* **FEATURED ON WATTPAD'S #PrideatWattpad READING LIST** Can we understand what happens after death by summoning ghosts? And are ghosts... real? Twenty-two-year-olds Arielle Daniels and Stella Sullivan go on an east-coast ghost-hunting tour to honor their recently deceased best friend, Jade, whose death remains a mystery. Only her parents know the circumstances, and they refuse to tell anyone. Stella wants to pay her respects by following Jade's bucket-list; but Arielle wants real, palpable answers. What happens after death? Why has she lost so many loved ones? And how exactly did Jade die? In the midst of their journey, Arielle realizes she might have been in love with Jade, but now... she has no way to be sure, and no idea how to reveal this to Stella--or anyone else, for that matter. As they travel, the girls discover more about themselves than they anticipated, both forced to come to terms with their emotions; Arielle to accept her bisexuality, and Stella to acknowledge her heritage as the descendant of a long line of psychic mediums. But the trip takes on an eerie tone when they get more than they bargained for, and swallow up more occult knowledge than either ever expected to find in their lifetimes. • WARNING: this book is rated MATURE for handling triggering, sensitive issues. There will be jumps, screams, and heart-palpitating moments. Proceed with caution.
