Hello, everyone! Wanted to share yet another writing contest, this time showcasing poetry <3 It's called the Ashes and Ink Poetry Contest. If you're a poet, or, like me, write some poetry on the side, you might want to check it out. I'll definitely be joining and would love to know if any one of you are interested as well.

Hey, everyone! Just published a new Lovestruck chapter, "Fountain Encounter", where Calvin bumps once more into what is starting to become a very familiar face. Get ready for meet-cute part 2! 
          
          I know it's been a while. Was taking a break from the story and reassessing where I wanted it to go, but hopefully I can get back into the groove of things. I hope you can enjoy it <3

Here I am with a shoutout to another great competition, "The Crescent Awards", courtesy of @Hella2025. There are still slots open (specifically for mythology, poetry, short stories, sci-fi, action and supernatural), so go and enter your book before they close! The deadline seems to be August 1st. 
          
          I'm going to enter some of my short stories (of course!) and maybe even my poetry book. There are some cool additional mini categories, and I'm thinking about picking entries for them as well. Good luck to everyone who participates! <3

Are you a fan of sci-fi, fantasy or psychological horror/thriller stories with dark themes that grab at your soul and leave you questioning your whole existence? Me too! XD Which is why I'm planing on joining the Glitchprint Awards and so should you. Or even if you aren't, there's bound to be some amazing stories in the entries, so do yourself a favour and go and check out this special competition.

          I'm also accepting ideas on which of my short stories to submit to the Best Short Story category. I'm still a bit torn, since I have a lot of them that fit the themes and genres of the completion. If you've read my anthologies, which one did you think was the darkest and most emotionally ruinous? >_<

Hello, everyone! I have an exciting announcement to make. The Pride Awards are here once more, hosted by none other than the Rainbow Bookclub, and this time around I will have the honour of being one of its judges! We are looking for compelling stories with a focus on LGBT+ characters/plot-lines, so if you think you have a book that fits this criteria, check out this year's Pride Awards (link below) and submit it before the deadline

          Hello, everyone! I've been in a sci-fi mood lately, and it's been a while since I've added to my "We Dream in Ones and Zeros" anthology, so I decided to post a new short story for it. 
          
          It's a bit ... different from the other ones. It's pure dialogue (in chat form) and trying to format something like this on Wattpad took years off my life, I swear, but hopefully it will have been worth it. 
          
          Because of the format, it's only 345 words long, so if you want something short and very sci-fi, but also different and unsettling, please do give it a read and share your thoughts <3
