DannisWrites Contest Entries [and Challenges]

This is my motley collection of contest entries here on Wattpad and other places as I discover them. Most will be science fiction and all will be young adult. Depending on whether it's free writing or by prompt, this is going to be a fun ride for me! Hope you enjoy it once my actors and actresses take the stage.

I will also list all entries, whether here or not.
