*Sequel to Sycamore High - Road To The World League* After losing the Kalos League finals yet again, Ash feels terrible. Not only did he lose the final, but also he lost 'her'.

Welcome to Wattpad's yellow pages, your go-to source for community, opportunity, and fun. Wondering what awards are open? What about games and activities? Or maybe you're looking for ways to promote your books. Within these pages are awards, contests, non-competitive events, promotional opportunities, etc., all active within the past six months, organized alphabetically, with pertinent dates included for your convenience. This will always be a work in progress. If I've missed something or you'd like me to add a new chapter, drop me a comment here or a message on my profile and I'll look into it. This is a one woman show, so I can't cover as much as I would like, but I'll do what I can. Graphics created by me using resources and tools in Canva Pro.

When Kang the Conqueror creates a deadly game to choose his successor, twelve diaries appear across Earth, each holding the power to predict the future. For Y/N L/N, a young hero and ally of Spider-Man, the game becomes personal. Hunted by gods, heroes, and fate itself, he must survive the impossible alongside the mysterious Yuno Gasai... before time runs out for everyone. Twelve diaries. One god. No tomorrow.

Remember how I always said I never wanted to host an award? Ever? Too much work, too much stress, count me out? Oops. It's true. I am hosting an award. No, I am not just doing it as an excuse to make people stickers, although there will be stickers. OH, YES, THERE WILL BE STICKERS. This contest is a celebration of all that is awesomely misfit on Wattpad. Are you in?

They were the golden couple-Shubman Gill, cricket's rising star, and Sara Tendulkar, the glamorous daughter of cricket royalty. But five years into marriage and two years after the birth of their daughter Yukti, the perfect picture began to crack. Sara's world revolved around studios, modelling, and endless "business trips," while Shubman's revolved around family and the little girl who adored him. When Niya, a young tutor and dance teacher, enters their lives to guide Yukti, she doesn't expect to become the warmth the child never received from her mother-or the heartbeat Shubman didn't know he was missing. In a house divided by silence and cold wars, forbidden love begins to bloom.

To keep myself from losing track of: all the 2026 contests I've entered, all the 2026 contests I've volunteered myself as a judge (or let myself be volun-told into judging), all the 2026 books I've had to read as a contestant or as a judge, all the 2026 deadlines, and all the other important stuff, here is a book that registers all these 2026 things in a somewhat organized fashion. With occasional commentary. For the record, I am not Lady Whistledown, and I do not have all the gossip of the ton. Nota bene: Although other people are welcome to browse my public contest logs and look for contests, look for information about details of contests (i.e. you want me to pour you some tea), etc, these contest logs are primarily for my own use. I enter so many contests that I can't keep track of them without a log. I forget important details, too, including things like "Note to self: You do not get along with this contest host, best not participate in their contests." Like my 2024 and 2025 contest logs, this journal was never meant to be an "expose" book. I'm not exposing anybody. Contests are matters of public record, as are any comments made in the contest books. I'm just a ditz who needs a written log to keep track of everything. I would lose my head if it hadn't been attached to my shoulders. I DO NOT CONSENT TO MY POETRY AND PROSE BEING USED TO TRAIN ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE
