--Watty winner-- In Victorian London, monster hunting isn't just a job, it's a way of life. Freddie Westman, a reporter for a paranormal magazine, is one of the best in the business, but now it's personal. His childhood friend, Jim Penderry, has disappeared, and the signs point to sinister forces from beyond the grave. If Westman wants to save Jim, he'll have to face his worst fear. No, not fighting a demon with only a cake to hand. Something far more daunting. Sceptical Sophie Penderry doesn't solve mysteries or go on adventures. She's more at home in the library with her nose in The Botanist's Guide to Plants and Fungi. But she puts the science books away to help Westman find her missing brother, whether he likes it or not. Which he really doesn't. Westman is a loner, reluctant to lead anyone into danger. According to him, the supernatural is not just the stuff of folklore and children's nightmares, and a world of black magic awaits them. Now Westman must decide if he should push Sophie away for her own safety, or take a leap of faith and accept an offer of help and friendship. Either way, time is running out to find Jim, and worse still, they may not make it back in time for tea and biscuits. ~Featured story (Sep 2014 - Aug 2017) ~Selected by R.L.

Beautiful, talented and pretty Ariana Grande has an unknown, troubled, and dorky sister? Well, yeah. In a school there was a girl who was in high hopes of being in in a statewide competition for singing talents. And and she wanted to be one of those talented girls. And then it hits her: her sister is Ariana Grande, and she was one of the judges of the audition. What happens if they meet... again? Will things turn back again from the past when they were inseparable sisters, or it will just end eventually? (All of these are works of fiction and please do not copy. Thank you.) NOTE: THIS IS WRITTEN LAST 2014, SO PLEASE UNDERSTAND THAT THERE IS A DIFFERENT ARIANA GRANDE FROM THAT TIME, THANK YOU. sirenfatale © twenty-thirteen-twenty-sixteen
