{ Watty 2015 Winner + Featured Story } Meet Sawyer Jameson. On the outside, she's a normal seventeen year old girl with amazing friends, a charitable job and a loving family. She's beautiful, funny and easy to get along with and just by looking at her, you'd think that she's the perfect girl, living in the perfect world. On the inside though, just waking up and living her day-to-day life is a struggle for Sawyer. Well, aware of this fact, Sawyer's mother forces to see a psychiatrist after school on a daily basis in order to cope with the tragic events Sawyer encountered a year prior. Now meet Graham Cambridge. Those who don't know him could easily stereotype him as being a blunt, selfish, egotistical golden boy, just because he likes to party and play football. Those who actually know him though know that he's actually quite the opposite of all of those things. When Graham transfers from his elite prep school to Sawyer's high school and quickly takes an interest in her, things go from bad to worse. At least, that's what Sawyer's convinced herself of. What people don't realize though is that maybe they were wrong about Graham Cambridge and that his life is about as far from perfect as they come and that he and Sawyer are alike in more ways than one. Two completely different teenagers that maybe aren't all that different after all are about to embark on a wild ride that neither of them could have ever expected. Can they help each other get past their demented previous tragedies? Or are their bygones too great to ever escape them? And can Sawyer ever truly be saved? Full of romance, heartbreak and just a little bit of fate, the next couple of months will challenge both Sawyer and Graham in ways they never thought possible. And maybe, just maybe, something beautiful will come out of it. © Copyright 2013 Millie Morgan. All Rights Reserved.

In 1968, America's greatest generation began their favourite pastime for yet another year. Baseball. Men returned back to the game. Among them, some of baseball's most beloved names. Rose. Aaron. Williams. Mays. Allen. Life in the United States could return to normal. And baseball was proof positive that democracy was real. A baseball box score, after all, is a democratic thing. It doesn't say what gender you are or what religion you follow. It does not know how you voted or the color of your skin. It simply states what kind of ballplayer you were on any particular day. Women had served their country gallantly. Yet, they found during this time prejudice, segregation and Gender Discrimination Laws were still present and strong. Sexism was the law......and no group was more scrupulous in its observance of custom, than organized baseball. There was a long road ahead. If any women dreamed of playing baseball, it was not for the Yankees, not for any Major League team, no. It was for teams like the Kansas City Monarchs of the Women's Leagues, and if they were good enough (and lucky), they played in small recreational leagues with men, where the barnstorming style of play stood in contrast to the Majors. In 1967, there were a total of 400 players on their rosters. Every one of the 400 Major League players were men. But when opening day came in 1968, that number dropped to 399... And one girl stood apart.
