Vulnerable

Prologue

This may be a different type of story that you may have read in the past.
But with this, I am writing out a majority of my whole life thus far; literally.

What you will be reading is my diary entries I've done in the span of 12 years; from when I was nine years old to current day (age 21). And I'll be vulnerable and show you what my life and mind was like and I'll show you how I grew and changed over the years.

I did have to change a bit of my spelling and grammar. When I was young, I was obviously not the greatest at spelling or grammar. I did want to make sure this is understandable to all of my readers. But in my teen years, nearly everything is all word for word of what I wrote. Though I changed a bit of the grammar, what happened to me never got altered. I have also only picked (out of my 7 journals I've wrote in) select and important entries. So I will not give you a story about my life that is as long as it could actually be. I will shorten it up a bit but it will still be pretty lengthy because each day I write an entry will be one chapter.

I did want to state that nothing within this novel is made up. Everything is 100% factual and I did experience and live through everything I discussed. Some of my life events (which will be discussed later in my teen years) may seem like I made it up because it is so rare for it to occur. But I did not make up anything.

These entries are all real and nothing is fake.

Also, I did change the names of my friends, exes, family, or anyone who is written in all of my entries because of privacy purposes. So besides my own name, all of the others have been changed.

Finally, it will begin a bit on the slow side because it does start in my childhood. A large majority of the "interesting" things occur when I was in my early teens. But please still do read it all because everything will all build up on itself.

Hope you enjoy this because I found it quite difficult to openly show you all of my emotions, thoughts and let you into my personal life like this. I am feeling incredibly vulnerable.

Until the story is fully published (or until up to present day is published), I hope to post when I can. Hopefully a couple times a week. So you'll need to be patient as the story unravels until then.

Do follow me for updates, like, comment or share if you enjoy my work! Writing has been a passion of mine that will never die.
