ONE OF MY SHORT STORIES GOT LONG-LISTED!!!!
          	
          	This is something really exciting for me!! I was in the top 10% of people who entered!!
          	
          	Sure, being long-listed doesn't sound like a big deal, and yeah, in some ways it isn't. However, in the eyes of someone looking at any books I want to publish in the future, it gives me a bit of a leg up on competition.
          	
          	Now, on my writing 'resume', I don't just have being a hobbyist writer for 11+ years on Wattpad, or had a semi-popular book (once again, on Wattpad). I now have 'was long-listed in Australian Writers' Centre Furious Fiction'.

Wattpad is deleting accounts without giving anyone a warning. I’ve lost over 200 followers (originally being at 1.29k) in a very short period of time.
          
          What I suggest right now, in case your account is suddenly deleted, save all your books onto another app like Google Docs or Word, as you won’t be able to get them back at all.

I’m so tempted to start a Fast & Furious: Spy Racers fanfic. Not because I like the show, but to fix the absolute mess the producers made out of it.
          
          This show had so much potential, but at every turn it got screwed over.
          
          And especially after seeing Tokyo Override. 
          
          I’ve never wanted to write a fanfic to *fix* the entire story. Normally its to add my own characters and adjusting the storyline to that. And they’ve all been shows or movies I like. But with Spy Racers, there is a motivation in me to honour the characters in a way the show and producers failed to do, because the characters (in essence) are good, they were just written into a bad story.

New How To Train Your Dragon trailer just dropped. My thoughts?
          
          The dragon designs look really cool, and I mean really cool. Stormfire looks amazing as does Hookfang. 
          
          But this trailer still hasn’t eased my fears that this is just going to be a copy and paste live action film. I am hoping they’re just showing off scenes we know from the original to hide the new scenes that would appear in the new film.
