advice column high imperfection newspaper overcome perfection prejudice pride school wattys2014 writing

At an early age, Olivia Saunders has been forced into being absolutely NOTHING but perfect. Perfect appearance, perfect behavior, perfect outfit, perfect everything. So there's absolutely no doubt to her that for her freshman year of high school, she's going to be queen of the school newspaper.

That's how she's always been.

But Mr. Masters, the smooth, snobby head of Harper Weekly, has other plans for her.

She's put into a partnership with a boy she despises: Tom Thatcher, a boy a part of Thomas C. Harper High School's popular pack. Although he's a bit different from the others. He does his own thing, on his own time. He's very laid back, and doesn't really care too much about being perfect. This is what infuriates Olivia the most.

But what happens when Tom shows her that there's no need to be perfect? That the best form of beauty is when there are human flaws?

And what happens when Olivia finally tries to get out of her mother's iron clutches?

Will Olivia become the person she wants, instead of what her mother has forced her to be?

Or is she too scared to break the mold?All Rights Reserved

"What does it feel like to be a heartless bitch?" "Cold." . . . Everyone loves Katherine Hartley - or at least, they love the illusion. Katherine reigns both on campus and at the elite ballet academy founded and owned by her father. She's every warning wrapped in silk. Elegance carved in ice, she's a girl raised to be disciplined, untouchable and most of all; perfect - a swan sculpted by years of brutal training and emotional isolation. Love was never meant for her. Especially not the kind that lingers - obsessive, aching... wrong. Especially not from the boy she's known since childhood. He's the one who sees through her mask, sees everything she tries to hide. And for the first time, Katherine starts to wonder what it would be like to fall - even if it ruins everything. He knows loving her may ruin him. But letting her go would destroy him. He's everything she can't want. And the only thing that makes her feel alive. She's the only thing he wants, but can't have.

Idiot's Guide To Falling In Love [Completed]✔ by WinterWriter11

Shawn looked at me with a puzzled face. "What are you writing?" I looked up from my new journal and smiled. "I'm writing everything that has happened lately, so that I don't forget. If I don't write this quickly, I'll forget it. And besides, this way I will know what not to do the next time I meet a handsome boy." He smiled. "So, basically it's an idiot's guide to falling in love?" I laughed. "Yes, exactly." We both stayed silent for a few seconds, just looking into each other's eyes. "Wait, did you just call me an idiot?" He looked at me, trying to contain his laughter, but he couldn't. * There's a thin line between love and hate. Very few are brave enough to cross it.
