《Meet the authors showcase edition volume #2 Est. 6/5/2020》A showcase with @Sydneycl2050, author of Between the Redwoods

so in 2017/2018 I met someone that really taught me that sometimes people are in bad situations but a lot of times that isn't the whole story. That person really taught me that sometimes we look at people and their situations in a sort of black and white, type of viewpoint. But the reality of it all is that people are made up of so much more than one mistake. Our mistakes shouldn't define us. So, Between the Redwoods was born on a snowy winter day and I've been working on it for some time now.
Flow... I had all these ideas and scenes that I wanted to write in my head and I needed them to flow into a sort of well-defined story. It was challenging but I think it now flows.
I think the scenes with Wyatt are my favorite I think he's such a complicated person and someone that at a point in time we can all resonate with. Someone's who's really in love with the idea of someone. And who struggles with that person not loving them back.
I've gotten a pretty good response surprisingly, I have my core group of supporters, I will say though that the story is pretty different and slow-moving so i think it's harder to draw people in.
it's a stand-alone novel. I really don't like writing series I like when a book end's for you to be able to imagine where the characters will go and what they will do. I think series sometimes takes that freedom away from the reader.

My mom and my dad met each other unknowingly years before they officially met each other. They only recognized that fact after they'd been married a while and recognized that they were at the same hotel that had a fire years later. the funny thing about the story is that my mom is from the north and my dad is from the south so it's pretty amazing that they were at the same hotel all those years ago. Anyway all that being said, when i found that out i kind of lived by the philosophy that we've probably already met our soulmate and just don't know it yet. so that's one thing i want people to take

write from you're heart and don't let people get you down. A few of my wattpad friends have gotten some pretty harsh reviews as of late and seeing how well they took it really showed me that if you're confident in your story and love your story then that's all that matters.

She shares some similarities with me, probably her being a recluse, and her confidence issues.
It's a fun story, you can't really tell where it's going, I just had a book reading and a lot of the people there just fell in love with the characters Owen and thought the story was going so many different directions. There are so many cliff-hangers, i think it'll keep new readers interested.
Yes actually i love suspense so i already have my next book in progress. I have a few words to describe it by, 18th century, murder, and arranged marriage. I think it will be really amazing I'm excited to start it.

Reborn as a Magic Firefly, Help?
A rural farmer's boy is unknowingly reincarnated into a world of magic and monsters as just a wee little larva, not even considered a monster at all. But through grit and a passion for surviving, he will eventually evolve into something truly powerful and maybe, just maybe, find a way home. If that means defeating powerful foes and becoming a powerful monster himself, maybe, just maybe, that's what he needs to do. Popcorn easy-going typical "reincarnated as a monster" fic. Expect evolution trees, rare evolutions, small twists, a generally unaccepted main character who just wants to meet a human, the works. In this story, the main character is reincarnated as a larva, but his evolution will lead him down a path to become a will 'o wisp firefly hybrid, since that is what the fellows over on light novel amino requested, and it sounded cool. I'm just writing this to keep my fingers moving, so it won't have too much effort in it, but if you like stories like the beginning of the (good) reincarnated-as-a-dragon light novel, I'm sure you'll like this one. Popcorn isekai fic. The cover, drawn by yours truly, will reflect the current evolution of the main character. Also, he'll be pretty weak-to-strong, since, well, maggots are kind-of-really weak.

Unto Dark
A man of cripplingly ill mind, bridled with the spirits and regrets of the past. Wade Pierce trudges through each day of his monochrome existence, only as penance for his sins. Such a man is abruptly decamped of this world courtesy of unapologetic forces, left stranded in a realm filled with unknowns. Armed only with his potent yet fragile intellect, Wade advances into this new abyss, as he attempts to rewrite the wrongs he has committed. Plagued by vile beasts, self-righteous Gods, and even his own seething darkness, the cracks in his mind begin to spread and a dangerous, newfound power bubbles beneath the surface. As the world grows darker day by day, this unfortunate journey begins ------------ I suppose rectitude dictates that I should state any themes worthy of noting here. First of all, this story is not a sunshiny one in the slightest. Since it is listed under the psychological and mature tag and not the comedy tag, that shouldn't be a surprise. Next, morbidity is a factor and general apathy towards human life. All of these are common themes amongst other writers, so nothing new there. The story also contains consensual, and non-consensual sexual activity, although I have tried to be as tasteful as is possible for someone like myself. Finally, the pace is drawn-out, and the language is magniloquent at times. Not to mention, the chapters are quite lengthy. Don't expect to read this halfheartedly... Other than that, enjoy the story... There's nothing more important than that...

(i won't say much as it will ruin the mysteries that will come, there are two other series added into the story, one will be easy to tell where it is from the other not so much.)
