Welcome to Wattpad's yellow pages, your go-to source for community, opportunity, and fun. Wondering what awards are open? What about the status of those awards you entered three months ago? Is that even still happening? Well, lucky for you, I've done the work, so you don't have to. Within these pages are awards that have been active within the past six months, organized alphabetically, with dates of entry deadlines, judging windows, expected results announcements, and latest updates from the organizers. This will always be a work in progress. If I've missed something or you'd like me to add a new chapter, drop me a comment here or a message on my profile and I'll look into it. This is a one woman show, so I can't cover as much as I would like, but I'll do what I can. Graphics created by me using resources and tools in Canva Pro.

Nachdem weder ONC noch WSC im Deutschen dieses Jahr stattfinden werden, habe ich hier eine kleine Alternative aufgestellt. Anders als bei den bisherigen Schreibchallenges wird es kein Bewertungssystem geben, lediglich die Runden, in denen man weiterkommen kann, wenn man die benötigte Wortzahl erreicht hat. Damit möchte ich sowohl die Challenge als auch die Community aufrecht erhalten. Sonst wird alles sehr ähnlich zu den bisherigen Schreibchallenges ablaufen - mehr Infos dazu in den Infokapiteln. :)

He may forget parts of the past, but he can never truly leave it behind. The happiness, the bonds, and the love he once experienced will always be treasures to him. Two separate paths, united by fate. Some things may change, but their hearts still glow the same. Can they find their way back to a forgotten romance, or is this where their story ends?

He comes from a long line of police officers and soldiers. His grandfather, Amorsolo Marquez, expects him to follow in their footsteps, continue the family legacy, and prove that he is the bravest of all the Marquezes. Due to pressure from his family, Robbie kept his identity a secret from everyone except his mom and cousin. He lives with his parents (Gina and Lando Marquez), along with his grandmother, Feliciana Marquez, his brother, Justin Cedric, and his loving cousin, Angela Marquez. Unbeknownst to Amorsolo, Robbie is not the grandson he expected him to be. Later, Robbie is adopted by a wealthy couple who want to help him achieve his dreams and desires in life-to fully become a woman. As time passes, Robbie faces more hurdles and setbacks. He realizes that he has to stay true to himself, leading him to decide to undergo full sex reassignment surgery to become the woman he always knew he was meant to be. She transitions from Robbie and becomes Olivia Mariano, a successful vlogger, businesswoman, and COO at an apparel company owned by her adoptive parents. As Olivia begins fulfilling her dreams, fate reconnects her with Marlo, the man she fell in love with as Robbie, and Phoebe, the woman who humiliated her and caused Robbie great suffering. As their worlds collide, tension rises between Olivia and Phoebe as they fight for the heart of the man they both love. All Olivia wants in life is acceptance and to resolve the rift between her and Amorsolo. But what if her family, especially her cruel grandfather, refuses to accept her? And what if Marlo finds out that she used to be a man? Will she ever get the acceptance she's longed for all her life?

Once you see the system clearly... There is no safe way to remain inside it. *** In a world where memory is currency and intelligence determines worth, society is divided into Endowments - cognitive classes established to preserve stability and prevent chaos.

In a world of wireless clouds and sterile touchscreens, Cleo digs for ghosts in the bargain bins of Seattle's tech shops. She collects "dead" media-floppy disks, CRT monitors, and things that hum with physical electricity. Her latest find is The Glass Panopticon, a 7-disc PC psychological thriller game that vanished from shelves thirty years ago. It plays like a vaporware dream until a leather-clad rebel named Slater starts breaking the fourth wall. He is charming, snarky, and undeniably dangerous. But Slater isn't following the script anymore. He doesn't just look at the camera; he looks at her. He knows her name. He knows the layout of her room. And when Cleo tries to quit, she wakes up with a line of vibrating white static etched under the skin of her wrist. Slater claims he has a mission: to overthrow the Overseer and start a digital revolution. But his real objective is much simpler. He doesn't want to save his world. He wants to escape into hers. And he needs a body to do it. ONC 2026 Entry. Prompts: #88 (AI Betrayal/Trapping) & #99 (The Strange Mark) Themes: 90s Nostalgia, Horror, Slow Burn, Analog Tech, technothriller
