Self harm is about a girl named Charlie Westbook, and how she goes through with her life.

This is my true story of self harm. (This is completely true and I don't suggest you read if you get triggered easily) This is meant to show you what a big mistake it is to self harm and that there are other ways to be happy. COMPLETED!!

Self harm is an issue the majority of society tends to ignore or scrutinize. As a survivor of self harm with three years experience of the torment and the struggle I know it's a problem and I do know how to tackle it. This book will cover self help, ways to overcome it and how to help others. If you suffer yourself or care about someone who does, please give this a read. Anyone who needs help I will try and respond to you if you message me on twitter, my account is @k_newborough

[SPONSORED BY TELUS] For Winona Prescott, senior year was supposed to be simple; get good grades, graduate and have a bit of fun on the side. But when a video of her kissing another girl goes viral throughout the entire school overnight, everything takes a turn for the worse. Friends she once trusted turn on her, peers shut her out and her only comfort is from a friendship she once thought was lost. Winona just wants everyone to forget the video ever existed. But then the messages start to appear. Repeatedly, Winona's phone is filled with hate messages from an unknown account. She tries to delete them, they come back. She tries to ignore them, the paranoia sets in. Soon there are groups and pages, all spewing hate directed right at her and Winona is crumbling under the pressure. From the relationship with her dad, to the cold shoulder from everyone at school and the faceless person targeting her, Winona doesn't know what to do. Because the scariest opponent is the one you can't see.

High school is a hard place for anyone - especially if wherever you go, you're misjudged. A sample entry for the #wonderthemovie contest.

[SPONSORED BY TELUS] Eva Shaw's junior year falls apart when she sees a website dedicated to making fun of Cathy, a reclusive student, and does nothing about it. Eva watches the posts pop up every night and doesn't speak a word. But when she accidentally gets closer to Cathy, it slowly gets tougher to keep quiet about the bullying she witnesses each day. Cathy seems to be pulling further away from everyone and has no desire to bring a teacher into her mess and make things complicated. But Eva is finding it harder to keep quiet with all the guilt building up around her and when she finds out the creator of the website is much closer to her than she thought, doing the right thing seems almost impossible. With her 'friends' telling her to keep quiet, Cathy falling away and her own guilt pulling at her, Eva has to decide if speaking out is really worth it or if she should just listen to everyone and stay a simple bystander.
