My first romance novel, Lexi's Undoing, landed on Wattpad in Oct 2015, and it was published by Hachette Audiobooks in 2018. Despite my penchant for writing kissy, steamy, roll-in-the-hay stories, my first love is fantasy. Almost all of my romances have fantasy elements. I also have a few YA stories hanging out under my username, which includes my Wattys winner Neon Girl (now available on Yonde). When I'm not obsessing over this incredible community, I'm a Wattpad Engagement Ambassador and an organizer for
I was born and raised in Las Vegas, Nevada by musician parents who didn't believe in discipline, but irreverent humor ran rampant in the house, so I turned out okay. I also got to meet a lot of celebrities, although I didn't appreciate the cool factor at the time.
Music is the yummy sweet center of life. I listen to music, in one form or another, from the moment I wake up to the moment I fall asleep. However, if I enter an establishment that is playing country twang or opera, I'll walk out. A girl has to have her standards.
Fave books are Scott Westerfeld's Leviathan series, the Harry Potter series, and Seraphina by Rachel Hartman. I like me some fantasy. As for romance, I like the works of Sylvia Day and, yes, I enjoyed the Fifty Shades series. I am attracted to complicated men, both in and out of the bedroom. (in novels, you sillies)
If I had to pick my two fave bands, like if a gun was held to my head and I had to choose, it would be Pink Floyd and Linkin Park (Rest gently, Chester).
Fave movies are Coneheads, Elf, Jim Carrey's Grinch, and The Hobbit.
Fave shows to binge are Stranger Things, Big Bang Theory, Madam Secretary, Atypical, The Witcher, and Anthony Bourdain's travel shows (I will always be in mourning).

AJ Arnault aka
AJ Arnault has lived a hundred different lives before writing.
The former waitress—turned military officer—turned stay-at-home mom—turned mental health counseling grad student, currently resides in Virginia.
She writes fiction in between chasing after her four kiddos, dopey labradoodle, grumpy cat, and incredibly tolerant husband.
Like many authors on Wattpad, AJ began penning Harry Potter fan fiction. As her confidence grew, she turned to writing original fiction.
Her first novel, The Problem With Dying, was selected for mentorship in 2020 by the fabulous Sal Mason. Even though she didn't win, AJ's story caught the staff's attention, and she was invited to become a Wattpad Star in January 2021.
Since then, she has become a Wattpad Exclusive Author, a WritersConnX panelist, and Bootcamp mentor herself.
Two of AJ's stories, Sailing West and The Problem With Dying, were also shortlisted in 2021.
Zoe Blessing aka
I love writing stories that make people feel good. My genres are all over the place. I'm currently working on a YA contemporary romance. I recently completed a YA sci-fi and an LGBTQ adult contemporary romance. That romance, called Falling for the Gun-Toting Accountant, won a 2021 Watty! I've also got an entire YA fantasy series with over a million reads on Book 1 alone. That book, Siena, was shortlisted for the 2017 Watty Awards. I also have a YA paranormal book in the Paid Stories program called My Mother Runs with Wolves .
If you need further proof that I like helping new writers, I also maintain an interactive Wattpad book, How Write Stories People Will Love. Writers ask me questions and I answer them as best I can. I also give you the pep talk you need to get over your self doubt, because sometimes we need that.

Lastly, I'm a California native with a loving partner and three yapping little dogs. When I'm not writing or working at my day job as a design engineer (basically a web designer who does more coding than designing), I'm playing video games and wondering if I should be writing instead.

Reincarnated as a Troll in a Dark Fantasy World
A troll wakes up in the "forest of beginning" of a fantasy world with only faint memories of his past human life and unable to speak. The human realm will spare no expense to bring down this monstruous threat. While clinging to his humanity, the troll must use his cunning and modern knowledge to survive and evade the hunters. It is a dark age in a world of swords and magic, ruled by superstition and iron-clad rules. Tradition and conformity are the absolute cornerstones of society. There is no calendar, people count time by seasons, or days. Death, famine and vicious monsters are everywhere. People clutch in their communities, afraid of what is outside. Here and there, a Hero rises, his tale brief like a shooting star. Powerful monsters that drift too close to human's realm must be eradicated at any cost, or society might crumble. The Troll comitted this sin. This "isekai' LitRPG novel is an experiment in writing. We commit to the "Adventure" and "Fantasy" genres, but it might have comedy, romance, and both dark and light tones. Some events in this novel are drawn from random encounter generators and others are decided on a die roll just like a tabletop RPG. Things take a unpredictable tone! Non constructive / offensive comments may be deleted without previous warning. Daily Updates: One each monday through friday, two on saturday and sunday. As of september, the updates will be every even-numbered day. Cover Credits: "Ett gammalt bergtroll" - John Bauer, 1904 (with modifications)

The Crisis on Planet 9
Welcome to the dream colony Planet 9, where the streets are stained by blood and the buildings are filled with human remains. The creatures roaming among the abandoned cars and flying vehicles resemble almost to perfection the mindless cannibalistic zombies born from the fictional nightmares of mankind. The cities were built in the retro style of the 21st century, but the technology of the 24th century is ever present, mostly within the bodies of those mortally challenged monstrosities. After all, what turned them into these things was not an evolved organic virus, an alien disease, or some sort of magical artifact, it was the corrupted and reprogrammed nanobots within their bodies. Originally, they were meant to heal them and help them access the tech around them, but now they were the origin of this disaster. Among the rotting dead and the Nano-Z, as the survivors called them, Kardian Pandora awakens two months after getting bit by one of them. A young teacher at the local Resonance High, foolish and naive in his own way, but now driven by the Sapient AI in the nanobots inside his body to hunt down other Nano-Z and learn how to survive. For now, his only goal is to become strong enough and rejoin his students and fellow colleagues, foolishly hoping to somehow be able to get back to the time when the undead did not rule the streets. Will Kardian be able to survive in this new savage world or will his naive outlook lead him to a dead end? Volume 1 can be bought on Amazon: Resonance High

The Dungeon Gods [DEAD - AWAITING REWRITE]
More than three centuries ago, the Great Mage, Arcius, Performed the single greatest feat a magician can accomplish, he looked into the future, and discovered his fate.

Impressed at the Mage's efforts, an ancient, powerful being, the Creator of Gods, has now chosen him, to become one of the Dungeon Gods of a new world in a new segment of reality.

Follow him, as he brings forth the knowledge his efforts awarded him, and pits it against his unprepared competitors, in a bid to be the first to create sentient life. This is my first full on story, and is mostly going to be a learning experience for me. It is going to be a story following the life of Arcius as a Dungeon God, with very few POV swaps, if any. If I make any errors, either in spelling or in grammer, please let me know, and I will endevour to correct them ASAP. I was inspired to create this story after reading the Scale Dungeon, by TheSilverGunner, here on RRL. It is a good story, despite having only a few chapter out at the time of writing this. I highly recommend that you read that story if you find this one interesting.
