《Dear Diary, I Have a Mate》The Greatest Announcement Of All Time!!!
Advertisement
Hello Wattpad Readers! Want to hear something super awesome?
Turns out I'm descended from space aliens! And they are targeting my wattpad readers!
Ok now that I've gotten your attention. ;)
I have some big news!
But first of all on a personal note. I wanted to say, thank you for reading my story. Writing is my absolute favorite thing to do. And I am so happy that you have been here reading it.
Ok onto the big news!
I'm getting published!
I know, I can't believe it either. (I've asked my friend to pinch me to make sure that I'm not dreaming) (at which point she proceeded to slap me...). I've been writing since I was very small. And what is happening is a dream come true.
And it's literally all because of you guys (you're like... my favorite people). I wish I could give you something... like, I don't know, a birthday cake. Or a unicorn... But instead I've got something even better!
Because you guys are so awesome I will be giving away never before seen content! Including ultra shorts, and a prequel.
Anyways before I get off on a rant.
The book is going to be published FEBRUARY 16, 2018 EST.
I'm still here on wattpad, but my publisher has asked me to take down the last few chapters before publishing for copyright issues.
And there are a few awesome things going on even before then (it's going to blows your socks... and feet off)!
My publisher is setting me up with a fancy website (very professional), and they are going to be holding a cover contest. [say: whhhaaaaaattt?].
Thats right! And you can submit a cover, to become the official cover of the published book. And your name will be put in the book, and on the back of the physical cover of the book! (Your name on the cover of the book. You will be famous!). Here are the guidelines.

Just send the covers to my agent at by FEBRUARY 1, 2018.
The only requirements are:
Book Cover Guidelines
1. Know that if we choose your cover you will get credit ON the physical cover and inside the book. This can actually help you a lot as a graphic artist and bring you future work from us and other book publishers.
2. You will have to fill out a form that lets us have the cover.
3. You can not use any copyright images. You can use Royalty Free Images.
4. We need a high res format of the cover in JPG and Photoshop format, as well so that we can use it for the paperback version of the book.
5. Cover Image size should be 5.5 by 8.5 inches in 300 Pixels per inch resolution.
6. Hints....
The cover has to look good when Amazon Thumbnail size. The idea is that people WANT to click on it when they see the thumb nail.
The text needs to be readable.
You should use only 1 font.
The cover needs the title AND the authors name
7. The cover needs to have the Title DEAR DIARY, I HAVE A MATE and the Author's Name ABBIE LYNN visible.
8. If your covers wins we will do everything we can to use it. If it wins we will WANT to use it because that will give us the most future sales. BUT... You do need to know that there can be odd reasons why we might not be able to. For example we might not be able to use the Photoshop file for some reason or we might find a copyrighted image in the cover design.
9. Submit your created cover on or before FEBRUARY 1, 2018.
By the way this is NOT mandatory. This is simply something to get you guys involved in the launch because you guys have helped me a lot to get here.
I will be giving you updates as it all happens. Now most of the time when people give updates on how a project is going (like getting a book published). They are really boring. BUT I WILL DO BETTER! You can be guaranteed to be LOL'ing on every update. :D
So stay tuned for more updates.
Thank you.
Much Love,
Abbie

Murder Eternal: Fate Unknown (Book Two)
Set in a future where humans are extinct, a hybrid race emerges from the ashes of a war four centuries old. These are a blend of human and an alien species called the Atra. These humatrans have inherited what remains of the decimated planet Earth. The abilities they’ve been born with have the potential of saving the future or condemning it. On the run from his own father, Sarafyn, young Jason Jacobi must come to terms with his fate as the firstborn of prophecy. A seemingly unplanned fellowship is pieced together from the remnants of society, sworn to safely escort Jason to Durham, Oklahoma, where his father was born three centuries earlier. Sarafyn’s memories of his youth reveal how his innocence was warped by an alien bent on becoming a god. Yet perhaps, such protection is needed. As humatrans are crawling from the womb, humanity slowly recognizes the threat they represent and vows to wipe them off the face of the planet . . . by any means necessary.

The Sagas of Mortaholme
There is only one god and his name is Elduin, Dwarves are stories, magic isn’t real and the northern kingdoms are made up of raiders and the unfaithful. For two thousand years this has been the truth for the people of Alturine, the holy southern empire. For two thousand years, tradition has been leeched away to form a vicious cycle where the rich stay rich and the poor beget more poverty. Only now, when the southern realms of men are at their lowest does darkness leak back to stake its claim. Marius was raised in the northernmost reaches of Alturine under the trees of the Black Forest where remnants of the old kingdoms still linger. He never believed the stories of short mountain men, nor the old fables about mages and dragons. Yet the darkness cares little for belief and faith. He watched as wargs tore his mother and sister asunder, as the undead carried his father into their ranks and as his town was put to the torch and drowned in blood. Rage fuelled and vengeful Marius struck out against the architect of his misery only to be outmatched and left for dead.
