Hey guys! I'm honored to report that @Wattpad has included Celestial Mechanics on their "Community Pride Recommendations" List! There are a ton of amazing LGBTQ+ books to choose from and I'm absolutely giddy to see CM up there among them. Happy Pride, y'all!
          
          Check out the full list here: https://www.wattpad.com/list/1728742849

The bad news is, Celestial Mechanics didn't make the ONC Short List. BUT, the good news is, this just means I can novelize it even faster!! And honestly, my goal was always the Long List (which I hit) so anything extra would've been a happy surprise. 
          
          Congratulations to everyone who made the Short List!! I'm so proud of you and you deserve all the reads and praise!! For those of us who didn't make it, we'll get 'em next time ❤️

See that’s the spirit and we are all winners. I’m glad and proud of you to have made it to Longlisters.

Happy Pride Month everyone!! We're starting off strong with the news that Celestial Mechanics has made the Short List of The Pride Awards hosted by @FreeTheLGBT! There are a bunch of other amazing LGBTQ+ stories on the list if you want to check it out here: https://www.wattpad.com/1546384221-the-pride-awards-shortlist
          
          And speaking of everyone's favorite space lesbians, I've been hard at work expanding CM! So to celebrate Pride Month, I'll be dropping an updated prologue, new chapters and even an epilogue in the coming weeks. I can't wait to share more of Lana and Kor's story with you as well as dive into the world around them!

Life update: I got married yesterday!! And I may or may not have referenced writing in my vows ❤️ It was literally the perfect day and I couldn’t be happier. So gonna go incognito for the next few days to celebrate! But I’ll leave you with this quote from our first dance song…
          
          “Do you think I'd give up
          That this might've shook the love from me
          Or that I was on the brink?
          How could you think, darling, I'd scare so easily?
          Now that it's done
          There's not one thing that I would change
          My life was a storm, since I was born
          How could I fear any hurricane?”
          
          - ‘Francesca’, Hozier

You guys!! CELESTIAL MECHANICS made the ONC Long List!!! I'm completely over the moon (pun intended) and so proud of my silly little space lesbians! 
          
          Congratulations to all my fellow Long Listers and shout out to everyone who completed a novella this year!! It was such a tough push and even if you didn't make the list, y'all should be so fricking pleased with yourselves. We did it!!

Hey guys! Now that I've been on Wattpad for a minute and have a better grasp of the etiquette, I'll be going back through SLATE GRAY the next few days and splitting up the longer, earlier chapters. Content wise, everything will remain the same but even I can admit that a 20+ minute chapter is a bit long for this medium. 
          
          So sorry in advance for all the upcoming chapter announcements if you follow my story! I promise it's for a good cause. And maybe, once I'm finished, you'll get a brand new chapter of SG ;)

@alpaljames Ooh, new chapter you say? Gimme! XD
