Hey everyone! This year I'm back on my ONC grind with a new story called "A Wild and Furious Heart." It's a dark academia novel set in a mysterious arts college, where the main character helps her friend kidnap their rival! If that sounds good, feel free to read the first chapter and prologue here:

"When I was six, I set my first house on fire.
My mother was out of the house for one of her prestigious art shows, one with a theme I couldn't hope to interpret even now after four years of art college, and I was left with a nanny I didn't care for. She wasn't a friend of my mother's, and by that I mean she wasn't Nigerian like us. My mother had hired her on recommendation, and she came from somewhere in Spain. Zusa, I think her name was. Before the incident, she would call me Firebug. I suppose she thought it cute I followed every open flame like a moth drawn to a bulb. After the fire, she didn't talk to me at all. It didn't take a genius to understand why."
