If you're here, and if you have time, you might as well give the rest of this post a quick read and tell me which one of the four WIPs you would definitely give a read if you saw it in a library or bookstore. If you have any advice, or if you think something sounds too cliche or just not-good-in-general, please do tell! I'm open to all advice and will read anything you shoot my way. <3

Unlucky 13

A 13 year-old girl, Julia Harper Portman, who lives with her Grams and her mom’s brother’s family, goes through all this stuff:
- Bullies at school
- Friend betrayal
- The mother she always knew as dead was actually alive and living in England
- She has two step-sisters (one of whom stalked her) and a step-brother (who was her cousin's bff)
Lots of stuff >.> There might be something that I'm missing but that's the main *waves hands around* plot thing.

A Painter & Writer's Magic
Spoiler
A husband (Will, a writer) and wife (Audrey, a painter) go out for dinner one day, and meet a devil named Akolxohez (who was the waiter) who follows them to their house and makes them sign a mysterious contract. Audrey does a fake sign and gets away with it because Akol is being frustrating and isn’t explaining things properly. Akol comes back in a rage and kidnaps them and brings them to his world because he realizes it’s a fake signature.
They need to defeat the angels (who in this story, are bad, and the devils are good) and make sure that the wizards stay safe forever for the sake of the whole galaxy's peace.
I... admittedly am sort of lost with this story and it’s plot right now - it was going so well in the beginning, I promise!! - and I'm very confused with the type of magic I'm using (I don't even know what to call it lol), but I plan on fixing things up so the story makes more sense. >.>

This girl, Cat, gets obsessed with the social media she's not allowed to have. She gains a lot of fans and followers because of her wonderful artwork. She ends up posting pictures of herself because of online peer pressure. She's very insecure about the way she looks so photoshops everything. At one point, her followers are like "booo that's so photoshopped" and she starts getting hate because haters exist. Cat's like dang I need to lose weight and get makeup so I can look better and she does just that. Two months pass by and her mother notices that she isn't eating properly so she sits her down and asks her about what's wrong. And then stuff happens and she’s taken to the hospital and diagnosed with anorexia. She’s in the hospital bed and she and her older sister, Val, start having a conversation. Val says stuff and then Cat's like "oh okay I have my fam's love I need nothing more <3"
Not as cheesy and random of course, but yeah that's basically what happens and it’s much more emotional than my lame summary hah ^^”

Here’s a summary from my NaNo 2020 thread :]
Ariana King has always been homeschooled, but as soon as she turns sixteen on the 17th of August, her father, for some reason, has decided that Ari would go to Opaque Lake High for the rest of the school year. Although she's infuriated at this sudden decision, and frustrated that Mr. King hadn't talked to her about it before enrolling her, Ari has no choice but to go. His childrens' education had always been Mr. King's top priority.
Soon enough, Ari is settled at school, getting good grades when it came to tests and being the usual over achiever she is like her father, who was a lawyer. Ari notices things going wrong when she sees stairwells and doors that other people don't see **at school** (forgot to add that in the original thread). She keeps telling herself that she's just stressed out about final exams, and that she's being a weirdo.
Or... is she?
Things get even stranger when the twin owners of the corner shop across the street from her school keep talking about mysterious stairwells and doors. They've even tried to get her to come down to the shop basement to show her something she would apparently be very interested in.
Ariana King absolutely must figure out what's going on before the end of the school year and her family goes out of Canada for summer vacations.
Thank you so much! Your time is appreciated.
