I love your genre!!

I absolutely love they way you write, its very descriptive and it gives me a near perfect image ^-^

Hey there, my Wattpad friends! What have I missed? I've been so busy with regular life *and* trying to squeeze in some exciting things I can't talk until after Labor Day (I hope) on top of it, I haven't had time to read. I've missed this place!
          
          So, a couple updates: I posted a new part to SIA, my little robot story. I have to warn though, it's about to get dark (in case you thought it was a cute little robot tale. It's not. It's a dystopian tale). 
          
          Second, to get ready for the exciting things I can't talk about, I self-published Deadly Beauty* as a free eBook online! I took out The First Will Be Poetic and added a line to Lux Aeterna, but other than that it's the same exact story as I posted here.
          
          And now I have a HUGE huge favor to ask those of you who've read Deadly Beauty & liked it & have an account at any one of the online bookstores below: would you be willing to add a review for the book? It doesn't have to be gushing or glowing or overly positive -- it can say whatever you truly feel about it, I just would like some reviews because right now there are none!
          
          Here's where you can find it. I don't think you have to download it to leave a review, but it's 100% free just in case. Even on Amazon!

          Thank you, thank you, thank you for the help to anyone who leaves a review, be it positive or meh. I will love you forever, regardless! (and if it's negative, then... thank you for the time & effort, I guess? haha)
          
          *with a slight name change to "Deadly Beauties" & a new cover because copyright & I didn't wanna get sued & it just seemed easiest

Either Wattpad is trolling and/or gaslighting, or I'm on the cusp of two alternate realities that are bleeding into each other: one where my story is ranked #6, and regular reality where it's at #492.
          
          To explain: I don't care *that* much about rankings, but they are fun. So when I came on today and as the page was loading it showed my story ranked at #6, I got a little excited. But when it finished loading it was at #492. Weird, right? So I refreshed the page & it did it again! The Wattpad ranking system is so bizarre.
          
          That said... it totally still counts that it was ranked #6, even if it was only for a split second, right? RIGHT? I know what I saw! Lol.

I have 418 notifications... eek! But I will try to get through them all. #WeekendProject

I just noticed that Deadly Beauty has 11K reads! And 661 votes! That's so crazy to me, because at the end of May this book literally had 480 reads and 37 votes. Now it's ranked in the top 50 in Short Story (well, today it is, haha - the rankings mystify me, they change so much).
          
          Anyways, I just wanted to give a huge, HUGE THANK YOU to everyone who's read it and to everyone who's voted on it! It means a lot to me and I'm glad you enjoyed my weird little tales.
          
          Also, I entered everything in the #Wattys2016 since you can enter as many stories as you want and it only requires adding a tag, lol. I don't know what all goes into the Wattys or how the winners are chosen and whatnot, but I don't need to know that to wish every one of you who've entered GOOD LUCK! 

I adore deadly beautiful you have an amazing writing style and I love the unexpected endings

Thank you for the follow!

Voting for the #OnceUponNow contest is over and I just wanted to say THANK YOU to everyone who was so supportive with their votes and their shout outs and helping to spread as many stories as possible, especially @krazydiamond for the flares and @Scripturient1998 for being my very first vote and all around awesome commenter & follower!
          
          I've only been on Wattpad a few months and this was the first contest I've entered, so I didn't know what to expect. But this was such an awesome experience! So much fun and support and community, and I found so many great writers, I'm excited! So thank you all once again!
