1950s bestfriends crane death diary friendship grief healing journal mystery ohio opennovellacontest2021 rich romance teenager teenfiction youngadult

Ivy Jane Sommers has had a hard summer. A long hard summer. After losing someone close to her, she is lost and untethered. Until her mom gives her a choice: help her run the estate sale for this obscure mansion, or go back to Carolyn, Ivy's out-of-touch therapist. She chooses the mansion (because who wants to be known as the "therapist girl" at school?) and begins the mindnumbingly boring work of sorting clutter into boxes. Then she stumbles upon a jar filled to the top with paper cranes. 

Soon, with the help of a boy (that she maybe might like?), she begins to see how these cranes are part of a vast web connecting her, the boy, the mansion, and an old dusty journal, as they embark on a curious, mysterious, and captivating journey into the past.All Rights Reserved

Dear you, by llama_butt

STOP! READ AT YOUR OWN RISK! DONT COME AFTER ME BECAUSE I WARNED YOU. BUT IF YOU IGNORE THIS AND PRESS 'READ' THEN MY FRIEND... GOOD LUCK. I would like to share journals of two teens who can't figure out the bond between them. The teens are completely different in every aspect. He can barely afford to eat outside, while she chooses not to. He's happy with his life, while she is sick of it. He's a keen reader while she's a keen addict. Have fun reading about their lives, laughing at their jokes and weeping at their misfortune. These journals will potray that nothing goes by nature's rules.

Only she can't escape the nightmares that plague her mind every time she closes her eyes. With a help of a newfound friend, she pieces together what really happened that night. Uncovering secrets that may have been better left untold. (A/N I promise the story is actually better than the description)

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.
