Hello. I'm TM. Just my initials for anonymity's sake. I'm a pretty private person. I have been working on writing a book since high school. 'The Summer of the Rest of Our Lives' is a story about three teenagers who graduate from their Christian high school and experience the most transformative summer of their lives, as they separate from their faith with God. I've shaped each characters personality from parts of myself, through my own experiences and ones that I find most impactful. Religion is referenced heavily but not focused on. My religious upbringing, and the trauma I've endured is the main reason I started writing this book. That being said, this story handles many different intense moments going further into it. Chapter 1 is lighter and doesn't dive heavily into the main subjects, but it does introduce the characters and the types of conflict to expect throughout.
'The Summer of the Rest of Our Lives' will consist of 10 chapters, 2 parts per chapter. The entire first chapter is published now. I will continue to work on editing and reworking the story without any set schedule as of now. If by chance this gets readers, please feel free to add notes on my writing, or start up a conversation. I would love to talk to anyone who finds my work. I am no expert writer by any means. This is something I enjoy to do to escape.
