**ONC 2021 SHORTLIST** **ONC 2021 AMBASSADOR'S PICK** **ONC 2021 HONORABLE MENTION--"Fun Summer Reads" Life isn't eternal. We're all aware of it; yes, eventually, you'll die. Whatever you believe in, you know that's it--that's the end. But what if you were offered the opportunity to resurrect? What if you found out you *weren't* quite done living? One small fee--the price to pay for another chance--and you're breathing again, just like that. Would you take it? Macie McGuire is given this chance once, twice, three times, but is never satisfied with the outcome. Each resurrection leaves a sour taste in her mouth, and she soon wonders if it's all worth it. And she smells something fishy underneath it all--something sordid behind the list of prices that seem linked to her initial life, and the hot guy waiting for her after every revival, crossing off the options as she chooses. How many times can she come back to life without incurring permanent damage to her soul? And why can't she stay alive? ### ENTRY FOR THE OPEN NOVELLA CONTEST, BASED ON PROMPT #66: "When you die, you come back. But you never come back the same, there's always a price to pay for resurrection." ### WORK IN PROGRESS, folks. Forgive errors and plot holes.
