In My Head

Jackson

I've always loved to write. My mind is always creating a new story. A new world. Sometimes dark and twisted, sometimes romantic and happy. Other times sad, terribly sad, so sad that I make myself cry wondering why I spent so much time creating these people with such amazing characteristics and lives just for me to decide that they end up getting killed, or face some terrible tragedy. I think it's because the saddest stories are the ones that stick with me. They're the ones that really make me feel something, and I think a story that makes you feel something is the best kind of story there is.

I don't have the natural talent of writing, I really don't. As you can already tell, my writing style is that of a child. I don't like to take the time to find extravagant ways of saying things that I want to say. I guess my writing style of more of how I would talk to you if you were sitting in front of me. Ive always been captivated by this type of writing style. It feels...real to me. I like real. I don't like books that seem over complicated, manipulated, etc. I want real. That's what I'm going to give to you.

This story is going to be based off of me for some parts. Based off of other people for other parts. This story is going to dive into the mind of Jackson. He's recently started college and he's going to realize that being away from home and on his own wasn't at all what he had imagined it to be. He knew readjusting would be hard. He didn't know just how difficult things could get.

He's going to struggle.  You're going to be there with him for it. Whether you stay with him or leave after the first chapter is up to you. Unfortunately for Jackson, he's stuck here through the whole thing. Because for him this isn't a story to read when he's bored. This is his life. This is what he is struggling with from the moment he wakes up until the moment he falls asleep. Every minute of every day. For most of you this is just a story. For some of you though, it may be something more than that. You may see pieces of yourself in Jackson. You could potentially relate to the things he experiences. You have have gone through some of them yourself. If this sounds like something you might enjoy then continue reading. Jackson's going to need someone to listen. And that's you...
