Ivy, 1990: has a window into the past, yet no idea where it comes from or what her future holds. A man moves to town and becomes her mentor, helping her understand why the ghosts of someone else's past are haunting her. A new friend emerges and teaches Ivy about living her own life, not in the past, but NOW.

Ava,1879: once lonely, ever reluctant psychic who lives in the Spiritualist mecca of Boston. As she deals with her father's death and her mother's rejection, she knows she can't go home again and tries not to lose everything in her brand new life.  

Can Ivy and Ava help each other, or will they continue to fumble through life's hardships separately - aware of their connection but never knowing how much they have in common? Outside of the spirit writings, what is the true nature of their connection?

Elementalist by ShelbyWinds

Ivy, an unpopular girl or woman rather. She lives in the background going about her business. She is invisible to others, or at least it seems that way. Her family is dysfunctional, there but not there for each other, not the way she always wished they would be. She isn't bullied, or beaten, just ignored. That's her life in a nut shell, not bullied, just ignored. One days she gets angry, not just mildly angry like she has any number of times in the past, but furiously angry. So angry that her body shakes and that's when it happens. Her entire life transforms. She struggles to adjust to the changes. She never believed in magic, many times she had desired it, who hasn't growing up? But it's real and now she has to learn to control her 'magic' or she could kill all those she holds dear, even if they don't hold her dear. But will her secret stay a secret or will others find out and try to use her for their own ends?

Within their dreams (Reverse Harem) by splast

"We'll see you soon, little one." I spend my days waiting for the night, hoping I can see them again. They make my skin come alive, buzzing with electricity. But the minute I open my eyes, they fade away. . . Ivy spends her life surrounded by books, comparing every man to her book boyfriends. So much so she's even started dreaming about them. When the men from her dreams walk into her bookshop, Ivy has to pinch herself to check she's really awake. What she doesn't know is that her dreams haven't been dreams at all, and despite spending every night with them for months, she's about to realise that she doesn't really know her men at all, and perhaps even herself.

Night Owl by sarastinson2

These seven deadly sins seek Skyla's powers, powers she learns she has on the same night. These evil beings need her powers to survive and will kill anyone to get to her. Skyla moves to live with her grandparents. Here she meets new friends, and even more important, Alec Stone, a gorgeous guy she is immediately drawn to. But does he like her as much as she likes him? (I'm sending this story to a publisher! Wish me luck!) Skyla's new life heightens when she learns that the Deathstalkers are getting closer, teenagers in town are behaving strange, and a mysterious ghost keeps appearing. In addition, Skyla is changing. Will she survive her new found powers? Will she fulfill her destiny? _____________________ Remember I said I wanted to shorten the story and the paragraphs.

Dead! by epichorn31

When Ivy Livingston woke up on a normal Wednesday morning in November, she didn't know that was the last time she would see her little sister, her cat, or her best friend Chloe. She had no idea that Anthony Wilson, the freak that she had been bullying since middle school, would bring his father's rifle to school and kill Ivy and four of her classmates before pressing the gun to his own skull. And she definitely couldn't predict that the afterlife was no more than a simple waiting room, where she would wait while the Celestial Bureaucracy decided whether she would go to Heaven or Hell. Ivy already knows that this isn't going to be easy. She's a borderline case, so it might take a while for the panel of judges to make their decision. She just hopes that she doesn't end up like that guy who's still waiting for his number to be called after two hundred years. However, as Ivy begins to make friends with a hockey lover and a girl who was so emo that she fell apart, she begins to think that maybe, just maybe, she can redeem herself. 2nd Place in Teen Fiction in the Whirlwind Awards. 3rd Place in Teen Fiction in the Mystique Awards and in the Prism Awards.
