Hi friends!

There are so many exciting things happening in Wattpadland, which I want to share. I'm going to update you on a few today and save the rest for later. Here it goes!

Many of the Wattpad Stars met up at @Wattpad HQ in Toronto this past weekend to celebrate the launch of the @IMAGINESbook and sign copies for their fans. You can find lots of pictures of their shenanigans on Twitter under #WattpadStarsTO. Author @RebeccaSky even stumbled onto the guy who plays Lincoln from the TV show The 100 and got a steamy selfie in the process!

@Jos1eDemuth (a featured Wattpad author I had the pleasure of meeting in London last December and who is just as sweet in real life as she is on-line) celebrated her book birthday yesterday with the release of A THOUSAND SALT KISSES. You must check out this awesome mermaid story if you haven't already. More about the release on Josie's website https://josiedemuthwriting.wordpress.com/2016/06/01/atsk-is-a-real-book/

@JayVictor (another amazing Wattpader I met in real life - aren't I lucky?!) has her cover reveal for GILDED CAGE (formerly SLAVE DAYS) today and all I can say is SQUEEEE. Look for more info about it on Vic's brand new website http://www.vicjames.co.uk/ If you're in Phoenix, Arizona on Thursday at ComiCon, there will also supposedly be a huge banner of the book there, too! How cool is that?

Lastly (for now), the lovely @MichelleJoQuinn brought to my attention this incredible giveaway where you can have the chance to win almost $1,000 worth of Amazon giftcards through a promotion from Love Kissed Books. Check it out here: http://lovekissedbooks.com/2016/06/01/enter-to-win-the-set-for-summer-giveaway/

Also, since it's the summer, we're bound to have some free time. Getting recognized on here would be a tad easier if we got into competions, one of which is being hosted by kriskosach and here's what she had to say:

My "A Picture is Worth 1000 Words" contest goes live in 2 weeks. You can see updates in my Conversations. I'm spending my own money for prizes here, and just realized those who already know about the contest have *no reason* to share the news (it'll give them a better shot at winning), but my contest is really to inspire a great story. So please consider joining us. Thank you.

Last time we checked...it already went live so hurry over to her page. :-)

And oh, we found this thread while skulking the threads:

There are a lot of activities going on for the summer--and a lot of reading to catch up on-- from the Summer Sun Kissed Anthologies to the ongoing FANTASCI contests as well as the biggest hangout of the summer; The Wattpad Block Party-Summer 2016 Edition. XD

We'll be sure to keep everyone posted.
