Olivia, a blonde-haired freshman cheerleader at Venomous Agendas High, might seem to be a stereotypical cheerleader at first glance, thanks to her boyfriend being a football player. However, after cheering at a basketball game, she realizes that she's tired to remain on the sidelines while, at the same time, she appears unwilling to give up on the team while its inaugural season is underway. By choosing to fill in on the quiz bowl team, she also chooses to defy the stereotypes associated with cheerleading. Only time will tell whether quiz bowl is a good fit for her.

WHEN CROWS PAINT THE SKY [ONC 2025] by carolannewrites
11 parts Ongoing
Jocelyn Jones' life has always been practical - maybe a little too practical. At 44, she has spent years worrying about everybody else, trapped in a marriage whose spark fizzled ages ago. A tomboy at heart, Joss has never been the type to swoon over fairy-tale romances, nor has she ever conformed to society's idea of what a woman "should" be. But everyone has a breaking point, and one morning, over her granola and yogurt, she decides she's had enough. She will leave her suffocating marriage and take a road trip in search of something she's spent too many years trying to hide - herself. As Joss sets off on her self-discovery sojourn, a murder of crows seem to be following her every move. And when one crow - a sharp-tongued, sarcastic creature named Quentin- suddenly starts talking to her, everything changes. Because Quentin is no ordinary crow, Quentin is her new sidekick, an opinionated mentor, and possibly the only creature on earth who can match her dry wit. With every sarcastic quip and unsolicited piece of advice, Quentin helps Joss step into her power, embrace her flaws, and take firm hold of her future's steering wheel on the road of life. When Crows Paint the Sky is a road trip like no other - a humorous and heartwarming journey of self-acceptance and independence, with a little bit of magic thrown in for good measure. With Quentin by her side, Joss discovers that sometimes, the most important journey is the one that leads you back to yourself. #ONC2025 Prompt:120. The door that closed to you many years ago has reopened, and now it's up to you to take a chance once more.

WATTYS 2021 HORROR WINNER! NOW A PUBLISHED NOVEL! Paperbacks available on Amazon, eBooks available on Amazon, Apple Books, Barnes & Noble, Google Play, and Kobo! 😈 Diego's life has spiraled since the gruesome death of his brother Miguel, and moving to a new town right before his senior year definitely wasn't on his to-do list. Oh, yeah, and neither was saving the world from a centuries-old, undead spirit who's turned Diego's new high school into its own personal buffet. * * * * Diego Rivera killed his older brother. At least, that's how he sees it, since it was his behind-the-wheel blackout that cost Miguel's life. He's been a shell of his old self since, unable to shake the mental toll of that traumatic day. As if nightmares, spontaneous barfing, and disfigurement weren't enough to deal with, now there's a serial killer going around offing his peers. Great. He'd rather not think about the brutal killings any more than he has to, but his new friend Watts notices something he can't ignore: a pattern that suggests Vanterbest High's most popular students are involved in the murders. And not only that, but he thinks they're the newest members of an ancient demon-worshipping cult. So, you know, normal high school stuff. Reluctantly, Diego lets Watts drag him into outrageous theories, paranoid research, and the recruitment of two intimidating outcasts. But a bunch of jocks and cheerleaders can't really be behind the terror plaguing their small town... right? Well... yes and no. The truth is, things are about to get complicated. And bloody. Really, really bloody.
