The judges have been assigned their authors and they have one month to read the first chapter of their books. They will leave all of their critiques by September 12. Some judges may leave their remarks in the comment section, some may PM you their feedback, other judges may leave comments on more stories than they were assigned, that's up to them. Afterwards each judge will select one piece out of their batches that they feel deserves to move along to the next round. Make sure to follow your judges and add this book to your reading list so you'll be informed when the writers moving around to round three are announced.

I also highly recommend going and checking out some of your competition. Not only will you get a feel of who you're up against, you may develop a relationship with another writer that pushes you to be better. One of the best things about Wattpad is improving your craft, and it's great to have people in this community rooting for you along the way.

1. @Gap_filler-- IDIOTS

Max Burnham has several points to prove and the first is women are just as capable as men. Nobody gets that one, but luckily he's well prepared with knives, several of which he's planning on using to threaten morons with (purely threaten, of course). The second is that Easter is as important as any other celebration and just because Easter Egg hunts are something he loves more than anything, this does not make him 'gay'. And finally, that referring to him as 'her' is rude and incorrect because he, shock-horror, has been Max Burnham for about two years now. Max has hidden behind masks – it's easier to blend in – for a long time and after moving away from home to escape from an ex he can't wrap his mind around, Max Finch has a new lot of people to educate, a hell of a lot to talk about and maybe even a few lessons to learn that his big brain somehow hasn't yet.

6. @may130-- MURDERED ACCIDENTALLY...ON PURPOSE

Annabelle Winters walks through life with a smile, even though she has no reason to smile, what with everyone around her dying. Though the last straw might break when Annabelle's only family, her sister, is killed in an 'accident'.

Assuming that Charlotte's death wasn't an accident but murder, Annabelle takes the help of a detective, who isn't supposed to work the case, and her dead sister's boyfriend, whom she finds herself falling for, to find out what really happened and why.

On the way to the truth of that night, Annabelle comes across guilt, anguish, fear, joy, friendship and love, but what happens when she comes across the truth?

Will she ever realise that this is all so much bigger than JUST murder and that one wrong choice could be the death of her?

Led by her glowing mark that signifies who she is, and aided by members of her magical society, Keela must search through a world vastly different from the one she grew up in, battling all sorts of dark creatures to find the next Girl before it's too late.
