Victore Academy boarding school is a lot of things. To the outside world, it's the heaven of schools. For some students, it's an experience they'll never forget. For others, it's the place to start their careers. And maybe for a few, it's the peak of their lives and really as good as it's going to get for them. And for me... well, I'll need a bit more than this to talk about that. But before you step in, here's a few things that everyone makes note of: 1. The students have secrets. And money. It's hard to tell what more of, honestly. 2. Don't get a room on the West Side of the girl's dorms. The birds around that private property lake house downside from campus don't stop chirping at 5AM. It's unpleasant, to say the least. 3. Avoid Mr. Labadee's classroom at all costs outside of lessons, especially past fifth period. It's better off if you're left in the dark with this one. 4. That asshole from Spain that terrorizes all the young freshmen is not hot. However, girls do make note of the fact that he works out post seventh period and right before first, near the track field. 5. The Victor's Tournament happens every year for all the senior year students. It's a pretty big deal. 6. And I think Armin Rivers is probably going to kill someone before he wins it (and it's probably gonna be that Spanish asshole). cover by soundthealarmComplete
Scholarly
Aspen Secondary Academy: it's the dream of every academically-inclined teenager in Colorado. One of the most prestigious high schools in the nation. Nearly impossible to get into. And students aren't just trying to get in - they're vying for scholarships. The prize everyone wants a piece of - the President's Circle Academic Scholarship - grants anyone scoring in the top 1% of private school entrance exams in the United States a full ride through ASA. The odds of earning the scholarship are so improbable it's barely worth contemplating. But for some, it's more than a distant dream. That's the case for Sydney: bright, vivacious, bubbly, artistic, outgoing. Born without the use of her legs, but determined not to let that define her. And for Vivian: intense, a perfectionist, sharp, calm, prepared for anything. Of all the people at ASA, she seems, more than everyone, to have everything together - but that couldn't be further from the truth. Along with their classmates, ASA's 2020 President's Circle Scholarship recipients are about to take on freshman year the only way they know how: in an unforgettable fashion. NOTE: This story is a loosely-autobiographical account of my own high school experience. Many, many characters and events are based off of my experiences and it's packed with inside jokes and allusions, so this will probably make far more sense if you go to my school, but I hope you like it even if you don't.Complete
Into the Velvet
*EDITORS' CHOICE 2021*After falling for her senior year teacher, Louise learns a harsh lesson on what adulthood isn't. Louise has some trauma to unpack. Heartbreak's a bitch, and her first relationship had been anything but normal. Thinking herself mature for her age, her affair with Mr. Cain started swooningly well. Except things ended quite abruptly. It's a lot for a seventeen year old to handle. But who's really at fault for what happened? Who even is Mr. Cain, and what is he hiding? From the wreckage of her naivety and self-esteem, can Louise save her friendships and rebuild herself? Our love songs aren't telling the whole truth. How can this be? In this tale of vulnerability, adolescence and painful reckoning, the arrogance of youth demands a price. * "'You're what, Louise?' he asked. 'You're sorry? What am I supposed to do here? How can I turn this around? How can I tell you that everything you want and feel is reciprocated, when I have to go back to work and pretend none of it happened?' 'I don't know the answer!' I cried. 'Neither of us do.' I threw my hands up in defeat. He caught them before they could fall. 'But how do I go back to living without your words?' His voice became a whisper. He squeezed my fingers tightly, closing his eyes and bringing them to his chest. 'I need how you make me feel, Luiza. I need it to feel alive. I won't stay away. No one's made me feel this good before. And I can't stand myself for wanting what I want. What do I do?' I was a violin bow on the verge of splintering. Every inch of me pulsed with an ache that began from the marrow of my bones. Fate had brought us here. At this crossroads of ours, there were a hundred different choices to make. A thousand different lifetimes to choose from, stemming from and decided entirely by my next choice. And in the end, I chose incorrectly. I held his face between my hands, feeling the echoing pulse of his skin. I brought his face to mine. I kissed him."Complete

❝ 𝗗𝗢𝗡𝗧 𝗟𝗘𝗧 𝗬𝗢𝗨𝗥 𝗙𝗔𝗧𝗛𝗘𝗥 𝗖𝗢𝗠𝗕𝗔𝗧 𝗬𝗢𝗨𝗥 𝗚𝗜𝗙𝗧𝗦 ❞ 𝐈𝐍 𝐖𝐇𝐈𝐂𝐇 - he was her therapist. ✿ Esther Collins' hoodie became her own home. With a dead mother and an alcoholic father who refused to pay the bills, she did everything she could to make a life for herself, and she was only 16 years old. The only thing she wanted was to get the hell out of Shermer, Illinois, so for the most part, she stayed out of trouble and kept her grades up as high as she could. Pursuing an art career was her dream, and she was destined to get far in order to obtain it. Andrew Clark was one of those nice-popular stereotypes. He was a friendly face, and quite frankly did not care about who he was or wasn't allowed to associate with. Being an aspiring therapist and future D1 athlete, he craved for his father's approval. Andrew was a kind human being, and he was very susceptive when it came down to the ideals surrounding mental health. His father resented him for that, which made that aspiration so out of reach that he did anything he could to grasp it, even if it involved harming himself in the process. Esther wasn't one for talking about her feelings, but Andrew's genuine persona made it so much easier to do so. A Saturday detention in March of 1984 had turned into a glorified therapy session, and ultimately, they realized how their fellow peers cope, react, and engage, and they simply became more open to emotional sensitivity. Despite what it may seem, everyone has a lot going on deep down, and judging them for it is pointless. Both Esther and Andrew knew that now, and they were beyond grateful that they were able to experience this fact together. 𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗕𝗥𝗘𝗔𝗞𝗙𝗔𝗦𝗧 𝗖𝗟𝗨𝗕 𝗙𝗔𝗡𝗙𝗜𝗖𝗧𝗜𝗢𝗡 @80s90swriting © 2020 rewritten 2024
IN A DREAM
Hi! My name is Philip Ackerman, and I'm 20 years old. Luke Stanford Academy medical student. I'm a serious guy with a lot of challenging roles in life. My school always put me under pressure in order for them to have unreachable background achievements. I know it's difficult for a normal person to think, but this is me, and it's okay. I have a supportive family and devoted friends who have always seen potential in me. And through that I was inspired to keep moving forward even when life was playing me. Yes, I am the so called campus prince, but I have had no exes since birth. A bunch of mixed genders confessed to me as well, but they are not my type. Except for that person who confessed 5 years ago. Even though I don't like him, he keeps messing with my head. He was my Junior High School batchmate. I've always seen him as one of the academy's basketball player, and no joke, he's really good. A lot of girls admire him as well. And one day, which is my birthday. He entered our classroom unexpectedly and asked if we could talk for a moment and that was the start of my curse day. I didn't do anything wrong to him, so why does he keep appearing in my dreams? Urgh, stop it. I keep telling myself to forget that guy. But, maybe there's a reason of that happenings?Complete
Maybe Happily Ever After✔️
I chuckled slightly and shook my head. "Does that usually work for you? The cute little remarks and that nice smile." I teased. He gave me a sheepish look of surprise. "Most girls would be flattered at my attempt to flirt with them." I scoffed and shook my head. "Well, as a member of the "most girls" community, I can say that I am not." "Wow. That's a bit harsh." He gave me a smug look and crossed his arms. "Sorry," I shrugged. "I'm immune to boy charms. In fact, I think I'm allergic." "Well, don't think so highly of yourself. Just because you have cute dimples and a pretty face, doesn't mean I find you attractive." ------------------------------ Maya Cameron is a senior at Ohio State University and this is the year where you need to get your life together before you get pushed out into the real world. Writing is the only thing that keeps her sane after all of the trauma she's been though. With her mom and dad's unfortunate death, she's been left under the care of her evil step-aunt and forced to stay with her annoying step-cousin. As if college isn't stressful enough. And then there's this other guy in her life. They met online by accident and have been talking for months but she's not brave enough to make it something real. Will Ashby is the all-around superstar on campus. He's practically royalty because he's the running back on the Ohio State Football team: one of the best college football teams in America. Will is the person guys want to be and guy girls want to be with. But in actuality, he'd rather blend in with the background noise. His only focus has been football and finishing his degree. That was until he met this girl. He doesn't even know her name or what she looks like, but she's the girl he'd want to be real with. Because of circumstances, Will needs an English tutor or he won't be able to play. And much to her dismay, Maya is the perfect person for the job.

Living with a YouTuber?!
This is a sequel, so read "Dating a YouTuber?!" first. I wholeheartedly loved and trusted Nate despite having known him less than a year. I had a million reasons why I shouldn't move in with him but I decided to ignore them and trust my gut feeling rather than my head. I knew people would say it was too soon and that I'd be giving up even more privacy living with a YouTuber who daily vlogged. Slowly but surely I was being wrapped in various YouTube activities and it had become a significant part of my life. I would be busier than ever when I went back to university and continued to run my now high-profile blog. It would be a challenge to juggle the pressure from the online world while attending my responsibilities, finding time for my passions and maintaining all my personal relationships. I didn't mind though. All the pieces seemed to fall into place and I was so bloody excited to see what the future would bring. *********************************************************** If you're confused, please read "Dating a YouTuber?!" first (check my profile). Blogger and photographer Abigail has agreed to move in with Nate, a.k.a. SillyNate on YouTube, and they are keeping it a secret from his YouTube audience for now. While the main characters (who are ALL fictional) still are the focus, this book will also have many cameos from real life YouTubers and draw on real events.Complete

Things That Fade
It's the little things that count. The little things that pass by without our notice. The little things that pile up quietly, slowly, and before you know it, everything changes. Call it providence, or coincidence, or just plain good ol' luck that their paths managed to cross again after so many years. Whatever the case may be, she was grateful for it, because without meaning to, she managed to rekindle a flame she had long thought to be extinguished. She found her way home to him, and likewise, he found her way home to her. She had found her Catchy again. And now, here they were, studying in a University in Lyon, France, living a few minutes away from each other. Yet no matter how things seemed to fall in place around her, she couldn't help but feel uneasy, because the universe, being what it is, is fraught with indeterminacies. The smallest things could make a world's worth of difference. Her anxieties only grew when on their last semester, Catchy decides to take a leave of absence, without so much as a single word.Complete
