Hello!
          
          We're thrilled to announce you've earned your Published Poet badge!
          
          Check it out in "Our Participants & Badge: Wattpad Published Poets".
          
          Wishing you all the best in the competition!

for some odd reason, wattpad didn't send out my last announcement, i think it might be due to character limit or something but check it out (if you want, of course xD)

got a couple of announcements (grouped, yay!)
          
          - i am officially going on hiatus, i usually don't announce them but doing so since i was reading some works and... it's officially going to be on hold but i might read here and there still
          
          - giving shoutouts for:

          - my works might also go on hold out of Wattys update cadence. I have chapters for BTTM series upto MISSION's chapter 13 (which still needs editing) and Second Chances has chapters upto 44 (which needs editing and finishing) and 45 (which is yet another heartwreak) but i'll try to still write when i can
          
          - i am DESPERATELY waiting for Ambys results so i could finally edit my works and Wattys too, soon, i tell myself
          
          - i am preparing for CAT 2024 and that's why i am officially taking a break while still trying to be active on and off, let's see how that goes
          
          - also take it as a qotd or just a trivia fact: trying to be historically correct is an illusion because what you tweak might also have been true for someone in that timeline. so, the said "history" books might not be always accurate (akin to the Viking and the Archduke examples) or they might be accurate only for a particular group of people. so, where do you draw the line?

Hieee?? How are you doing!! I miss you!!

          SOOO "Rainfall Awards" is gone, another addition to the graveyard of 2024 awards... idk why many hosts ghosted us this time, we just want our reviews, not even rewards T^T i don't remember which one I participated in, except, probably poetry so I'll need to check out WHO did the poetry and collect a review if I can...
          
          The participants for Best Male & Best Female for the same awards, please feel free to reach out for the reviews, I'll send them... possibly some social media and not wattpad message board, please? I won't be sharing the scorecard but if you'd like, yes... since technically the awards doesn't exist... sigh, anyway, feel free to unfollow too if you'd like, i'll probably give a follow back since i usually give a follow back for the participants after i am done judging their works for a contest... so there's that!
          
          I've been publishing the participant/winner interviews one by one on @thetranquilityteam but i just realized that there were some mistakes, so I'm going to unpublish and republish some chapters. Sorry folks, I really got caught in the wind XD but hopefully i can return to some reading soon!!!
          
          BEFORE WE END- do you have any recommendations for halloween reads sort of stuff? doesn't have to have halloween but something that has a spooky, mysterious town sort of vibe that really sets the celebratory tone? thanks and have a good day!

Can you tell me what happened to the host of the "Rainfall Awards"? I can't find her books neither her account.

Ah, I have been caught up in a whirlwind for a while. I was writing the 44th Chapter of Second Chances and its the LONGEST chapter I have ever written both for story and generally. I think in revision, this might become Chapter 42 to keep with the patterns (which will go through its own changes when I write the revision) but we've a MAJOR plot twist coming and so much angst and heartbreak... yeah, you can figure out why it is around 6k words long (p.s. Pride & Prejudice fans, you're going to feel the heartthrob)
          
          I randomly saw the tags and that is when i realized one of its tags is mystery-thriller and i want to bang my head on the wall for it xD sure, there's a thread of mystery that runs as a constant but, its more YA/dystopian... no wonder why @lostlovefairy classified this work as mystery and i tried to dodge that in fact, it is not and now i feel bad xDD sowwyyyy ;-;❤️
          
          I am eager for Ambys to get over so that I can edit my works and add to it. I am anticipating Wattys too but I don't have any high hopes on it, considering my works don't confirm to its verticals AT ALL. regardless, regardless, one can hope and lettuce see where that leads us.
          
          All the best to everyone who has participated in any awards and is awaiting results and congratulations to anyone who has won or not won too xD
          
          have a good day/night folks! ❤️❤️
