[2024 WATTYS WINNER] Data predicts they will fail. Their hearts say otherwise. In a world sliced in two by a violent, massive wall, there are only two choices: struggle for survival in the dead lands of the Other Side, or surrender your identity to the data-driven Reg Society.

Bumping Into You
Ophelia is used to being seen as the school's most popular boy's unapproachable (and lesbian) twin sister. Senior year will be no different. She will sit at the same table of girls with her best friend, Beverley, at lunch. She will flirt with a few of the sickeningly straight girls who can't stop talking about how hot her brother, Orion, and his friends are. Maybe she'll even figure out what she wants to do with her life before graduation. At least that's her thought process going into school on the first day. But when she accidentally bumps into the new girl that same day, she can't help but wonder if a few, if not all, her plans for her senior year are going to change. Maybe she even wants them to, although the thought of changing things for a beautiful girl after she's been a little bit against romance for so long is shocking and a little nerve-wracking to say the least. *Not Edited - Will be After Completion*

Allie wouldn't understand, my absence, or my silence...and five years would pass...painfully for us both. Allie had a child, I went to college, feelings got left buried, but thoughts were daily, and she never left my mind...not for a day, and what I didn't know was that she was in that same place...lost and waiting for me to return. And I would return... one christmas five years later... and with me every feeling and emotion resurrected. Our teens were only the beginning because the journey to Alberta was about to span through our twenties and into our thirties. A journey home. *** Willa Jameson.
