Hi smolNdainty,
          
          I recently had the pleasure of reading your book, and I was truly captivated by your storytelling. Your writing style is engaging, and the depth of your characters really left an impression. I believe your work would resonate with a wide audience, and I’d love to see it featured on the Novelsnack platform.

Alright, it's been a while since I've been on here just to chat, but 1.2K READS???? TYSM <333
          
          Thank you to everyone who has added Ivy Castle to their reading lists, voted, commented, etc. It truly means so much and it motivates me to no end with my creativity.
          
          While still on my tooting-my-own-horn bandwagon for Ivy Castle, you will most likely be seeing edits being made to my novella. Never fear, these edits will be minimal and likely only to fix anything that doesn't feel right like the flow, tense fixes, all that wonderful jazz. Why, you may ask? Well, I've decided I'm going to join the 2025 Amby's this year with it! Very excited!
          
          Before I head out for another month and a half, again, thank you all so much for your support!!!
          
          Love ya, 
          
          Cara

Y'all, Ivy Castle Wishes for a Princess is at 300 reads!!! It's been a year since its release, but it really is my pride and joy that I do plan on expanding once my life feels it's at it's rightful spot to truly channel all of my creativity and passion into it.
          
          Besides that, Ivy and Bella are on Wattpad's OFFICIAL Pride Month GxG Reading List! EEEEEK! How did I get here????? Impostor syndrome through the ROOF!
          
          Thank you to all who have read, voted, commented, and supported Ivy's journey and my writing since its release for ONC 2024. It wouldn’t have made it to 300 reads, or the GxG Reading List if it weren't for the immense amount of support! This has really made my day.
          
          In the meantime, have a happy pride month! I know I'll be <3

I've officially submitted The Fifth Life to the final round of ONC 2025! A wild ride, with a pretty meh piece of work in my honest opinion (I'm pleasantly surprised it made it this far), but I'm very happy I participated, nonetheless!
          
          We'll see if I want to stress myself out next year and impulsively join on the last day, but that's a future Cara problem.
          
          Congrats in advance to our future winners, and I hope you all do this journey again next year!
          
          With love,
          Cara

Woohoo! Chapter 3 in the books. This ONC is definitely going to need some editing after all this is said and done, but I'm quite happy with how it's going for a spur of the moment kind of thing.
          
          Unfortunately, I'm going to have to really haul into it, as my math is suggesting 2-3 chapters a week if I want to finish this the way I want. Well, that's what I get for ambition!
          
          Good luck everyone :)
          
          

Good morning! (Or afternoon/evening depending on where you are!)
          
          I know my account has been dead this past year, but I just wanted to announce that I am participating in ONC 2025 after such a successful year with Ivy Castle Wishes for a Princess back in the start of 2024!
          
          My new work is called The Fifth Life, an adventurous novella about a group of strangers, none of which remember who they are or what they're doing, living five different lives in five different thrilling worlds.
          
          I've just published the second chapter, and I can't wait to get this ball properly rolling!
          
          I hope all goes well for you guys with this upcoming announcement of who will pass round one. If it doesn't go as well as you hoped, I truly wish you keep going with your book(s).
          
          A special thank you to all those who have already read the prologue and chapter one, as well as adding it to their lists!
          
          Let's all support each other. Comment your ONC 2025 submission and I will gladly read it!

The longlist is as far as ICWFAP made, but holllllllllly!!! I really wasn't expecting to get that far in my FIRST YEAR, and thank you to everyone who has supported me, and each other throughout this quite stressful time! Congrats to all the shortlisters, and soon enough, the winners!!!
          
          May you all find what you have been looking for this ONC year and I hope you all have reached your goals!
          
          Onto our next adventure!
          
          Love, Cara

We made the longlist!!! Congratulations to everybody!!!

Woo! Cut it close for the finale, but I did it!
          
          Anyways, AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!
          
          Just needed to get that out. Very happy to finally mark this as complete! Enjoy the last chapter!!!!

HUHHHH?!?! Ivy Castle has officially been picked as a round 2 Ambassador's Pick?!?!?!? I cannot believe it has come this far, let alone became an Amby pick!!!!! Congratulations to all of our other round 2 Winners and Amby Picks!
