Spillover stories from Different Every Night that I'm not sure where they go yet.

☕︎ Welcome to Coffee & Chapters Contests A cozy little café built for hidden gems, growing writers, emotionally damaging stories, and chapters written at 2 AM instead of sleeping like a normal human bean. Wattpad's algorithm can be cruel sometimes, and many beautiful stories never get the attention they deserve. This book exists to create a small space where writers can share their work, discover new stories, support one another, and maybe find readers who stay till the end. From blurbs, opening lines, aesthetics, and dialogue to plots, characters, and drafts still hiding in your notes app, different themed contests will be hosted here from time to time, each with its own little spotlight. ──── ୨୧ ──── ☕︎ Current Contest Contest #1: The First Sip Best Blurb • Best Opening Line • Best Chapter One Status: Submissions CLOSED.
