Set against the backdrop of Ireland's historic Marriage Referendum, "OUT" explores the raw, emotional journey of 18-year-old Jack. It explores the conflicting currents of his identity and his struggles for self-acceptance when he moves to Dublin from rural Galway for college and finds himself unexpectedly sharing an apartment with an eclectic duo; a one-legged lesbian and a flamboyant drag queen. 

As Jack is thrust into the pulsating energy of Dublin's LGBTQ+ community, he grapples with his own sense of self and belonging, confronting the layers of his identity that he's subconsciously kept hidden. Caught between the freedom of the city and the conservative values of his rural upbringing, Jack must confront the looming shadow of his parents' involvement in the local 'Vote No' campaign.

"OUT" is a poignant coming-of-age tale that explores the universal themes of self-discovery, the search for belonging, and the expectations of a world that often demands conformity where the truest form of courage is found in being unapologetically yourself.All Rights Reserved

On and Off the Ice by hazelnutspread08

Finn Wagner just wants to fly under the radar, graduate high school, and, somehow, get an NHL contract to escape his parent's expectations and his grades. Finn is trying to understand his identity - he's dyslexic, German, French, and American, the youngest of four siblings and easily the least impressive, barely passing his classes. There's another thing, though: he's bisexual and not out to anyone, convinced he never will be. But when an impulsive coming out to his parents ends up with him outed to his entire school, Finn has to face the opinions of not only his parents, but his hockey team, his best friend, and the new girl he's falling for. Will he be able to find himself under all the layers of his identity, and more importantly, will he be able to accept who that person is? Annabelle Lindström wants life to chill out a little during her last year of high school. With no mother and a NHL player for a father, she had a childhood stuffed with trips, press, and hockey - both exhausting and amazing. Now, she's got a summer planned with her best friends before she graduates and majors in journalism, but her dad uproots that and drags her to Duluth, Minnesota to meet his girlfriend. She's convinced she won't like it, but Annabelle starts to love the city, like Jamie, make friends, and even fall for a boy. She tells herself it's temporary, since she'll be headed back to LA by September, but her dad gets his dream post-retirement job in Minnesota and she gets accepted for an exclusive sports journalism internship, so they're staying. Now Annabelle has a chance to make some more connections before she joins the "real world" and even make things happen with the boy she likes, but can she manage it all without getting lost in the adventure?
