The Readers Choice Awards 2023 - Introduction (on Wattpad)

Even though Capricorn is completed, I’m still submitting her for awards because why not? Capricorn has been accepted in the Romance category in the Readers Choice Awards 2023! 

The first round however, I need my readers, fans and stans to vote! The stories with the most votes makes their way to the judges for round 2. I hope you all help me out by voting! However, the voting isn’t here or on Wattpad, it’s on Discord, so hopefully if you have a discord, you can give me a shot by voting for me? If you don’t have Discord, I understand, it’s free to join though. Add me too (Butterfly #5596)

Here’s the link to the Discord group. Voting is currently underway for the SCI FI/FANTASY categories and ROMANCE is up next week but just in case you wanna discover new stories and check out the group first: https://discord.com/channels/885163251334283274/995808042299953233/108315181639874151

She Writes Press and SparkPress Toward Equality in PublishingSubmissions Open From August 15, 2022 through October 15, 2022!

The publishing industry has been widely criticized for its lack of BIPOC voices. At She Writes Press and SparkPress, we are well aware of the need for more and broader representation of BIPOC authors on our lists.

In consultation with two of Dynamo Verlag's previous authors, Josh Norman and Lucian Mattison, we have selected, from among our nine finalists, Jess L. Parker's Star Things. About this wonderful collection of poetry, Josh said: "With the varying intensity of a telescope or a microscope, Jess L. Parker zooms in and out on the negative spaces that exist between the esoteric, the mundane, and the emotional life that binds them. Each poem is "a new datum, to be loved/as intricately as Saturn’s rings are particular/up close, and held as tightly as they are." In the dusty moonscapes of "Star Things," every love, every scraped knee, every abandonment, every moon is at once familiar yet alien. Through Parker's lyrical transmutation of the ordinary into the sublime, we find ourselves at home among the stars."
