"Name one thing you and him have in common." I bit my lip. I didn't know what to say. "Our initials are both on the periodic table." That was about as close as anyone could get to seeing what Chase Summers and Emma Steele, The Geek & The Pretty Girl had in common. Emma is a senior at Orange County High School and her life revolves around her reputation. She is well-liked, admired, and has a voice that makes people listen to her. At least, that was what her life was until her parents sat her down over dinner to announce her childhood best friend was moving to the OC. It was great news at first, but things quickly went downhill when Emma noticed her childhood friend had evolved into a full fledged geek. As if her troubles from school weren't enough, someone else is determined to make Emma's life hell. Add that to her growing feelings for Chase and you get one big mess in the senior year of high school.

Dear Wattpad users, We are happy to announce the Hear Here Emerging Authors Contest, now open on Wattpad! Hear Here is an arts and culture organization based in Toronto, Canada. We host popular, salon-style events at popup locations around the city, collaborating with artists of a variety of mediums and designing dynamic spaces where we showcase their work to a diverse audience. However, the scope of our project is expanding in new directions! Hear Here has always been interested in fostering artists at all stages of their careers. Leading up to our sophomore event, we want to accept international submissions (in English) from the Wattpad usership. The top three submissions will be published on our website (www.hear-here.org), where they’ll be advertised to current and prospective Hear Here patrons. This also means they'll share a domain with our list of esteemed collaborators. If we have enough successful entries, a Hear Here journal in print won't be far off in the future (we'd contact you again before publishing anything elsewhere, of course). Read along for the contest rules, and good luck! —The Hear Here Team www.hear-here.org **CONTEST CLOSED. SPECIAL THANKS TO THE WATTPAD STAFF FOR MAKING THIS POSSIBLE, AND TO EVERYONE WHO SUBMITTED. EXPECT RESULTS TO BE ANNOUNCED ON APRIL 2--THE DAY OF OUR NEXT EVENT.**

Are you just starting out or perhaps you've been on wattpad for a while but could still use some feedback? Maybe you'd like a shout-out? Or perhaps you want more followers? Then this book is just for you! In it I'll post the competitions I organize. Participate to get a chance to win a review on your book, a shout-out/recommendation or a follow. Some of the competitions will be reading ones (like the Halloween Specials) and some will be writing ones. I might even make a cover/banner competition for those of you who are creative in that area. One chapter equals one challenge. Each chapter will explain how to enter, what are the rules, deadlines and prizes and how many winners there will be. If you have questions, comment! If you like the idea of this book or a particular challenge, please vote! TIP: Add this book to your library or reading list so you'll know when a new contest is added.
