How did When Fish Fly get festured on the officially superhero wattpad page? I am so stunned!
Also sorry for being away for so long... I haven't had the best year, and university is leaving me with no free time to write. I'm hoping that once I finish exams I can write a bit, maybe post a chapter or two, but no promises!
Anyway, thank you all for still being here, it means a lot ❤
Thank you so much for the follow!! <3
When Fish Fly is going to be published on amazon! If you are interested in reading it, make sure to hurry up and read it on wattpad, or buy it on amazon kindle!
Thank you so much for all your support, I'll be trying to post more chapters soon, I'm just not in the best mental state right now. Hope you are all having a wonderful summer/winter!
@DauntlessShadowIce1 Thank you! For now I am only going to be putting it up as an ebook, and then once I've done some more research I might sell it paperback. From what I understand amazon would print it out and deduct the price from my royalties, so I'm not sure how to manage that (put the price higher, etc...). My plan is to talk to a couple of people I know who have published their book as paperback before deciding anything. And it wasn't a dumb question! I've been thinking it over for a while, and I just don't think I should do it just yet.
New OSBS chapter! I hope you enjoy it!
I'm sorry for not posting or answering any messages/emails. My mental health has been declining quite a bit, along with my physical health. I'm hoping I can get back on my feet soon, but because of my current situation I feel like everything is going horribly wrong, I'm unsure of my choices, and it's really hard for me to stick to doing something - even writing, one of the things that brings me the most joy.
To be honest, the only things I have managed to do are those that I can have something in the background (making bracelets, sewing, and if I had my painting kit, painting) that can distract me. So I'm all up to date on youtube drama! I think I am getting better, I mean I managed to finish chapter five that has been in the works since the beginning of May, and I'm still determined to finish this book by September (goal is 50K, but I'm probably going to get to around 70K if my calculations are correct), so wish me luck!
So again, sorry to all of you who I have ghosted - I'm not sure when I will be answering messages, but just know I am doing okayish, and I plan on getting better.
Thank you

Sometimes I wish I could just dissappear. Run off into the mountains and not have to stress about exams or any other worrisome thing.
Chapter 4 of Once Shadows Become Stars is out! The current four chapters and prologue take about an hour to read based on wattpad's calculations, and for anybody wondering, it's the equivalent of 50 pages on a google document! The plan is for the story to have around 30 chapters, so it is going to be extremely long!
Obviously if you are planning on reading this book or are currently reading it, please leave a like and let me know what you think so far, I would love to know what I can improve on! Thank you all so much for the love and support.

Guess who's lost a whole 3K chapter of When Shadows Become Stars? Me! Yayyy!
I wrote it yesterday on my way back from uni (I always do it, it gives me something to do and that way I can write a bit almost every day) and for some reason my laptop has been having difficulty turning the WiFi on, so I had to reboot it. Now here I am, about to proofread it to post, and it's not here! I am so bumed... I was so happy with what I had written!
Anyone else ever had a similar problem?

@Loiosh I agree! I've been putting off rewriting it for now, instead of focusing on rechecking the chapters I already have. Thank you!
That truly sucks! I usually write and save on my laptop in Word, but I did have an issue like that last year when my hard drive died before I had backed up to the external one. Just do your best to recover it, I’m sure you’ll turn out something just as great
Make sure to go and check out When Fish Fly, shortlister to the Open Novella Contest hosted by the wattpad Ambassadors! I would really appreciate it if you could comment your thoughts and spread the word out of my story!
Thank you all so much ❤

Guess who's on the OpenNovellaContest shortlist?!?
I was honestly not expecting that... I am so happy! I haven't been getting my wattpad notifications lately so I entered out of curiosity because I knew the results were coming out between today and tomorrow, and what a delight!
I just have to say, I probably wouldn't have gotten this far without the help of Asha and my grandma, so thank you both! ❤
Crossing my fingers for the winners in two weeks, wish me luck!
How did you find the time to write 32k words in a month?
@DauntlessShadowIce1 Well the first week I had exams, so I used writing as my 'chill time', and then I had two weeks without any classes or work, so I had to use up my time somehow! It was quite nice having all that free time, but sadly I don't think I'll have that until next year...
