In no particular order, these are the ongoing stories which have given me the most enjoyment in the past week or so.
A Well-Lived Life by Penguintopia.
Serendipity by oyster50. Not a 'Smart Girls' clone, it has enough potential for character conflict to keep it interesting.
Jacob's Granddaughters by A. A. Nemo
Rebirth by Lumpy.
The Times They Are A Changing by Omachuck. Significantly superior to the average Swarm Cycle story.
Getting It Wrong by G Younger. Nicely swerving some of the usual do-over cliches.
An honourable mention to A. King and his Queen by Lazlo Zalezac. I'm not a fan of the author but the multi-dimensional characterisations make this a couple of levels above anything else of his I've read.

Sorry for the silence but my writing is currently maxed out by a Science Fiction novella I'm crafting for a showcase anthology by local writers. I'm not being paid but I guess it's half a step up from self-publishing.
I'm particularly enjoying a very strong crop of 'coming of age' stories on SOL at the moment. My personal favourites are, in no particular order:
Foul Ball - Sophomore Year, by Mindmeld
The Grim Reaper, by rlfj
Living Next Door to Heaven, by aroslav
Ninth Grade 1958-1959, by Banadin
Adam and the Ants: The Beginning, by LastCallAgain
AWLL Book 1 - Birgit, by Penguintopia
Honourable mentions to the following, which don't really have a 'coming of age' focus in my opinion but are enjoyable romps involving teens:
Art Class Preempted, by autofocus
Stupid Boy - Freshman Year - Part II, by G Younger
Dman 3, by Cold Creek
A couple with titles I can't remember have gone quiet for the moment - I'll add them to this list if more chapters appear in the next week or so.
