Plan B
Plan A might have been just as dangerous as the police insisted it was safe. It involved being locked away, out of sight and communication, and didn't solve the problem that Fran's stalkers seemed to have access to police files and data. Plan B the police didn't know about, and while the stalkers were at least temporarily out of the picture, it posed other problems. The police are now searching for her. Her stalkers are still looking for her. Her roommate doesn't know she's not a boy and a depressed teen movie star wants to be her friend. Being found out would blow her safety. Not to mention that the country thinks she might just be the victim -- or the cause -- of a spate of murders in the surrounding towns. Going to Darkwood private school was a risk, but not as risky as Plan A. The worry of trying to keep herself hidden from her schoolmates might become her main problem, but it still doesn't answer the most worrying question of all: just who were those stalkers, and what did they want? -- (Just so you all know, I've entered this book for the Hotkey Young Writers Prize. It would mean the world to me if you could support Plan B by voting for the first chapter (only votes on the first chapter count) before September 13th and then encouraging as many people as possible to read and vote as well. Thank you all so much!)Complete

Cobweb Head
Will hears things -- the fears and phobias of those around him. And when he's sent away to a foreign boarding school after an incident he caused with the new and dangerous side to this ability, he begins to realise there may be more to the school than he'd originally thought. ||| Windsor's Boarding School collects struggling kids from all over the globe -- and William Moore wants nothing to do with it. But when he finds a dangerous secret society living on the school grounds, one that uses nightmares as a way of magic, he realises they might be connected to his freakish ability. A stolen dream. An exiled student. A brewing war. Making a risky deal with one of the members, Will finds himself drawn to the danger of his power and uncovers exactly what the society would do to him if they found it out. [UNDER EDITING]Complete

The Book of Miranda | gxg | ✔︎
Desdemona ''Des'' Winchester wants nothing to do with Melliford Academy. In fact, she's pretty sure her parents shipped her off to boarding school just to get her out of their hair. It's a move they'll come to regret if she has any say in the matter. Nothing humiliates posh folk like having a daughter sent home from the country's most esteemed educational institution. Just flunking class isn't dramatic enough, though. Des plans to get booted in the most spectacular manner possible, just to make sure her parents' social circle will never let them live it down. Her scheming, unfortunately, encounters three roadblocks within the first week of class. The first: Exie Quinnell, teacher's pet, whip-smart, and unreasonably attractive. Neither girl intended to end up on a project together, but their teacher deemed Des in need of a little... remediation. The second: There are things about Melliford Academy that none of the teachers will talk about, even when pressed. Things that should be easy answers. The third: The first student found dead with a folded paper dove perched on their chest. ❖❖❖ Complete and fully edited. Comments and critiques are both welcome and appreciated.

Lights of Aurelith
On the continent of Elandor, everyone is divided by kingdom. Every kingdom has its own rules, its own magic, and its own people. Yet once children reach age eighteen, they are all summoned into one Academy. There, enemies are placed in neighboring dorms and old grudges are carried into the common area. The Academy was never built on trust - it was built on fear. Fear that without it, the kingdoms would forget the fragile threads that keep war at bay. We're not supposed to trust each other, let alone care for one another. But tell me how I'm supposed to ignore the one person I can't stop looking at? To walk the Academy's corridors is to carry the weight of every border, every scar, every whispered hatred. No one arrives without suspicion. No one leaves unchanged. Details: Inspired by: Fourth Wing and Tangled Songs inspired from: The Vampire Diaries, Stranger Things, Fantasy Playlists This book contains mature themes. Slow burn (for wattpad level) https://open.spotify.com/playlist/10yHBDQtVVERoHWbTSGi8q?si=I3zaslJFStebc0GAwrqiRA&pi=xzws5c1ITjSQ4Complete
