The Inkborne Chronicles

In a world where writers wield magical abilities tied to their genres, 16-year-old Selena's passion for storytelling is her greatest secret. For centuries, authors have competed in a fierce tournament, vying for a place in the Legendary Book, a mystical tome that immortalizes the greatest writers of the year. The competition is grueling-spanning three stages, with writers ranking from E to S based on the number of readers they attract. But the ultimate prize is more than just fame; the victor receives a life-changing cash prize and a wave of readers that will make their book a global sensation.

Selena, a fantasy writer with a unique gift for weaving vivid worlds, has always dreamed of entering the competition. But her family, struggling to make ends meet, disapproves of her passion. When her father is injured in an accident and desperately needs expensive surgery, Selena has no choice but to defy her family's wishes. She enters The Writers Tournament, submitting her story to an enchanted machine that selects, edits, and prints the books of those chosen to compete.

With each round, Selena's abilities grow, but so do the dangers. In the final stage, she will face off against writers from every genre-mystery, romance, thriller, and more-and the battle is not only for the title of the greatest writer but for her family's future. As she unlocks the true power of her imagination, Selena must learn that the greatest stories are often the ones we live-and that victory may come at a cost she never expected.

Will Selena's words be enough to save her family and claim her place in the Legendary Book? Or will the pressure of the competition be too much to bear?
