Young Writers Society

A gorgeous girl in a thousand-dollar dress invites you to a party next Friday night. A handsome boy, his hair tousled after an eventful soccer game, winks at you. You look around at all the nice things and all the pretty faces, and you smile. This is where you're meant to be.

But as time goes on, you realize that nothing is as it seems. The gorgeous girl? She cheated on her boyfriend at that party, and doesn't even seem to feel guilty. The handsome boy? You start to suspect that he may have committed a terrible crime. After awhile, you have things of your own to hide, things that you can't ever let anyone else know.

Now you're a part of this. At Woseley Prep boarding school, there are deep, twisted secrets behind all the pretty faces.

I'd like to apply for Erik van der Bries, if that's okay.

Name: Erik van der Bries

Age: 17

Grade: Senior

Appearance:



Personality: Erik sees himself as a carefree life-enjoyer, but others see him as a thug. He is narcissistic, bad-tempered, reckless, and arrogant; all traits that have, for some reason, made him irresistible to members of the opposite sex.

History: Erik never knew his mother. She died at birth leaving him in the care of his cold-hearted father. Erik’s father resented him, seeing his son as the reason behind the death of his beloved wife; he would regularly abuse Erik and taunt his every move and word. After years of this constant abuse, Erik’s sadness was soon replaced by an overwhelming sense of anger towards his father which eventually led to irrational and violent behaviour. By the age of 15, he had joined a gang, sold drugs and learnt how to steal cars. By the age of 16, he had earned the disapproval of every parent and adult in the town. He was referred to as the bad boy and had become a magnet for the town’s females (both young and old). Now, at the age of 17, with already an expulsion, the Board President’s daughter Juliana wrapped around his finger and an affair with his stepmother under his belt, he has no intention of changing his ways.

Up for Love: Yes

Others: Even though his father is a rich and prominent businessman, Erik has no interest in the High Society life. Instead, he prefers the simple things in life, like fixing cars and motorbikes and training his pitbull terrior, Rex.

Here's my sample:

Id like Issy. I'll post soon =)

Picture:

Name: Isabel "Issy" March

Age:Sophomore

Personality: She's the little girl who always follows the others around, or isn't with them at all. She is never a leader, and is having an affair with Andrew, thinking 'bout dumping him soon. She likes Holden, though it is more puppy love. though she is not the one to 'take' another person's boyfriend.(Andrew... was just Andrew. Everyone has their faults =P) She's small and out of the way, but she would never do anything. She's secretly published under a pen name, and is always reading, writing, or riding(horses) when not in school.

Background: her dad is a scumbag that sleeps with every girl he meets. She barely ever talks to him and constantly takes pills to calm her nerves. He mom left when she was born. She stays after school whenever she can.

Edit: Thanks!

Ok, thanks! Here's my sample- is this ok?

To clarify about the writing sample; you basically write a short paragraph about your charrie in a certain situation. Both accepted so far(:

Me and AERSOSMTH would like to apply for parts. Me as Gia, him as Holden

Name: Jaime Parker

Age: 17

Year: 12

Personality: Sweet little Jaime. No one would ever expect bad from this little girl. She's as quick as a whip when it comes to comebacks and can break you with one stare but she can be super nice. Too bad she's also super manipulative---she'll get her way NO MATTER what.

Bio: Jaime got a B- on her Honors Calc test after she pulled an-all-nighter while studying for her Honors Anatomy class.To get her grade up---in order to maintain her perfect 4.0 GPA, she's hooking up with the Calc teacher, the incredibly good-looking Mr. Thomas. Jason Thomas is more manipulative than Jaime is...and now they're kind of hooking up because they like it, not because she wants her grade up (it can't get any higher!). Poor Jason doesn't realize that Jaime has a crush on bad-boy Erik van der Bries. Jaime is good friends with Gwendolyn and her little sis, Issy.

*pic later* Appearance: blond hair, pretty blue eyes, stunning smile, nice olive complexion.

Writing Sample


The sample was ehh:/ Anyway, we still need a few more characters!

Your app must include: picture/name/etc.; background; and a writing sample.

Name: Giovanna (Gia) DeLuca

Age: 16

Year: Junior

Appearance:

Personality: Gia is an outgoing, crazy, party girl who doesn't care what anyone thinks of her. She's all into having fun and rarely ever thinks about her future. She's pretty into taking care of her looks, unless she's hungover. She loves to party. At times, she feels ashames of her reckless behavior.

History: Giovanna never used to be the way she is now. In fact, she was really shy, didn't enjoy parties, and was completely against drinking. In middle school her and her best friend liked the same guy, a lot. Her freind set her up on a date with someone she went out with once because "they would be good together". Not wanting to hurt her friends feelings, she agreed. When she went on the date with him, he raped her. Come to find out, he'd tried the same thing with her friend, but she'd somehow got away. He went around the school acting as if Gia had wanted it. Soon, every guy wanted to be with Gia. Eventually, Gia turned into the person everyone thought of her as. *No one knows this story but her - not even her parents.*

Sample:

Name: Holden Thomas

Age: 17

Grade: 12

Appearance:
Personality: Holden is one of the sweetest guys around. He's very respectful, is loyal, and has a big heart. He loves to be the bright side of someone's day. He can't stand having someone around him being angry or sad, so he cheer them up, which he's pretty good at. He is hard working. Holden is always a happy person, even at the worst of times. But Holden also is an alcoholic (how do you think he's always so happy?), but no one knows.

History: Holden's father is in the wine business, has been since before Holden was born. Ever since Holden turned eleven, his parents would allow him tastes of some wine here and there. That's what started Holden with his alcoholisim. Since his parents always gave it to him, he thought it was okay so he started drinking. By the time they started learning about how it was bad for you, Holden had trouble going more than two days without alcohol. Since he was taught it was bad, he hid the fact that a drank even more than he did before. It was easy for him to get ahold of alcohol, since it was always in the house and he always looked older than he actually was.

Now, he can't go a day without drinking. If he doesn't, he looses his temper and starts lashing out at the world. He has a lot of pent up anger from being so mellow all these years. Last time he tried going sober, he beat up his best friend. This is another thing he manages to hide from everyone. Sometimes he wishes people could see through him and know everything, but no one does.

Sample:

Name: Fionnula "Fee" Stewart

Age: 17

Year: Senior

Appearance: [spoiler] [spoiler]

Personality: As usual with all the queen bees of boarding schools, she tends to be mean and over-powering, heartless and cold. She loves power, but she longs for love.

History: Fee comes from a wealthy family, and along with this wealthy family comes ignorance, betrayal, lies and deception. Her dad, Ray Stewart, is the successful CEO of Clarimore Airlines. Her mother, Capris Stewart, is a high fashion model who is retired and spends her days in a luxury spa, or relaxing with her friends. Little do people know, Fee's dad is having an affair with Marissa Tanner, his secretary of five years. Fees mom knows about this and turns to alcohol. Her parents, ever the society type, make appearance when it counts, but go right back to what they do. Fee, being the middle child, uses this to propel her anger and need for love.

Sample: *Post later*

Second charrie please!!!

Name: Gwendolyn March

Age: 16, nearly 17

Year: Senior

Appearance:

Personality: Gwendolyn is a really sweet and kind girl. She's also very confident. She has a desperate need to be ontop, but she also gets pretty guilty. Since she really wants to be ontop, she's pretty jealous of her best friend Fee.

History: Gwendolyn is the middle child out of thirteen, so all throughout her life she has been striving to be known and to be ontop. She needed to be the best out of everyone. Her parents, her friends, and her teachers are always comparing her to her siblings. The more attention taken away from her, the more she wanted. Finally, she got fed up and demanded that her parents send her here. Here, no one compares her. Here, she's second in command. Here, she's one of the best.

Other: Long term girlfriend ot Holden.

He's very outgoing and he's a bit of a charmer. He doesn't like to settle down and he definitely isn't into long term relationships. He makes sure to stay away from the words "I love you"

History: Robbie is the youngest child in his family, which consists of his mom, dad, five sisters, and him. Since he's spent his whole life around girl being thier babydoll, he knows them in and out. When he was 12 him and his dad got in a car accident. His father died and Robbie broke his left arm, two ribs, and his ankle. Robbie has always blamed himself for the accident. The only reason they went out was because Robbie had lost his temper when his sisters ambushed him in his room and he beat them up, and so his dad took him out for a drive. The day of his father's funeral, Robbie promised that he would never love again. And he's kept that promise, until he met Jaime. But he makes sure not to show it

Other: Has faint scars on his left arm from the accident.
