Hi there! I’m a manager for an event hosted in the Dreamland Community Discord server called Write That Sentence. I just wanted to let you know that your book was used for this event where players are given the blurb of a book and try to guess its real first sentence. They’ll write what they think could be the opening line, and then everyone guesses which one is real.
          
          Only the first sentence of your story and its blurb are shared, and everything stays within the game.
          
          If you’d like to see what people came up with or just check it out, you’re more than welcome to join the server! I can provide the link, if you like. 
          
          No pressure at all — I just wanted to be transparent and let you know!

Would you like to do a read for read?

I’m curious as to what everyone will say…what is your writing paradigm? I’ve made an incorrect assumption that most people on the platform are seat-of-the-pants writers, but many actually write/outline offline. Are you seat-of-the-pants, edit-as-you-go, snowflake, or outline?? Or are you like me and switch around depending on the project and motivation?? Lol 

Crazy times and amazing news!  For those who have been following Ray’s journey, you know it’s been an a minute since I’ve updated CRONUS. The work is currently being considered for representation and undergoing some changes while waiting for some very exciting news. Your patience means more to me than you know. My hope is that I can unveil some of these changes soon, but with some things in development, updates may come slowly and sporadically. The interest in representing this novel has me so excited, but I also know many of you have been waiting to read the rest of the story. In the meantime, I’m weeks away from completing my graduate work so this summer I am free to finally jump back into Wattpad full swing and enjoy all your wonderful writing! Thanks for joining me on this journey! ❤️❤️

Huge congrats to the winners of the Adventure Genre in the Nouvel An Awards!!! I truly enjoyed reading and judging your work! You all featured great creativity and I look forward to following along with your writing journeys! @beingmyself06 @hojumirahyor @yuhina15

Part 13 coming to you a day EARLY! Or is it 6 days late?? I prefer the former…

          Anyway, I hope you enjoy reading this update! Comments are how I grow and votes are how I know I’m doing something right, so thank you for all the continued support for this story. Have a great weekend!!!

@DomiSotto put together a great review for CRONUS! Here’s a little glimpse:
          
          “In chapters 5-12, the story absolutely delivers what the blurb had promised. It’s exactly what I come for when I shop for cyberpunk.” 
          
          “Betrayal and romance hit at the same time as a double whammy.”

It’s Friday, which means chapter drop day!!! The revision process for CRONUS has been arduous with my schedule, but so far, we’re keeping things going. 
          
          Just a heads up, I am VERY behind on my reading requests. If we’ve agreed on a R4R, please know I have not forgotten you. Full-time grad school, two jobs and revising CRONUS has been a little crazy. I will catch up in the coming weeks. 
          
          If you are participating in a contest and I am your judge, worry not! You are a priority and you will get your reviews for your contests ON time!
          
          Thanks and have a fabulous weekend❤️

Part 12 is out now! It’s a little shorter than previous parts, but I hope you enjoy the read. My revisions are more delayed than I originally anticipated but weekly updates are still a go. I want to give a shout-out to my readers who have made it known that they are enjoying these latest updates of CRONUS through their comments and votes! Thank you so much!!! If I miss anyone, please tell me and I will give you your own special shout-out next week :D
