Hey everyone! I just wanted to shout out about a really exciting contest on at the moment, the #MyHandmaidsTale competition!
          	
          	The winner gets to be a part of an exciting online anthology selected by Margaret Atwood herself, which I think sounds incredible. To be in with a chance of winning, you need to submit a 500 word story inspired by The Handmaid’s Tale by June 25th. Sadly for me it's only open for US residents, but if this applies to you then I would definitely recommend you make sure that you do not miss out.
          	
          	For more details, go here: https://www.wattpad.com/396608695-myhandmaidstale-contest-myhandmaidstale
          	
          	Hope you're all having a great week! :)

There have been two very exciting goings-on in the Wattpad world which I want to share with you today. One is that Tap, Wattpad's new development, is now available in ten languages! I would definitely recommend checking it out here if you haven't already as it might be available for you now too, no matter what language you speak: https://taptaptap.co
          
          And then I have a little message to share on the topic of a competition open to UK residents at the moment:
          
          Heard of the new Beauty and the Beast Film? Well, there's a brand new profile for it here  -https://www.wattpad.com/user/BeautyandtheBeastUK  - as Wattpad have a brand new contest tie-in to the film.
          
          Wattpad are very excited to have teamed up with Disney UK on the official launch of Beauty and the Beast. With Belle's love for reading, what a better platform for Disney to work off of.
          
          This one's a 1000 word contest, and the winning entry will be featured on the BATB official profile and receive a shout out. Official entry is open to UK residents only,  but if you're not in the UK you're more than welcome to write something if you wish to join in in spirit.  
          
          So, if you fancy having a crack at it, the writing Prompt and details here:

          That's all for now! Have a lovely day folks :)

So after coming up to two years of not posting anything, I have finally put some writing up! It's nothing long, just a short story I wrote for an online creative writing group I've joined, but it's something, and there should be a few more over the next month. I've also felt more inspired to write after the amazing Wattpad London Convention last week, so I'm hoping to post some other stuff soon! 
          Hope you're having a great day! :)

Why isn't lovesick on your works?!!!! Have you deleted it!?  x

BlackStarrySkies

@unread_chapters yep, I deleted it. Basically, I was just really unhappy with it, as I felt I could do a lot better and on the whole I would rather write something new than go back and do a ton of editing :( I probably should have posted the last couple of chapters before I took it down, but if you have any questions about what came next or what happens to the characters afterwards, I would be more than happy to answer them! I hope you enjoyed it while it was up, at least :)
