**2016 WATTYS WINNER FOR VISUAL STORYTELLING** Letting her appearance fall to the wayside and desperate to find a reason for her life, Marilyn sits half naked in an Urgent Care examination room with a mysterious skin itch. If she can survive the humiliation of being treated by a sexy male nurse while unraveling the hidden drama woven throughout the hospital staff, Marilyn might leave the hospital cured far below the surface of her skin. NURSE McSEXY is a hilariously enhanced true story (with a healthy dose of fiction) about my mortifying experience involving an allergic reaction, Urgent Care and a sexy male nurse. It was an evening in which one of my greatest fears was encountered--only to reveal my better self on the other side of humiliation. This humorous tale is definitely worth calling in sick for! TO CLARIFY: Despite the title, this is not a tale about a hot and sweaty romance. I mean--I wish it was since it's based on a true story. Unfortunately (depending on how you look at it), my life is a lot more on the belly laughing side of the spectrum than the steaming up mirrors side. Just saying.

When they part that night, both think they'll never see each other again. But, when Noah goes back to school after summer break she finds out that Tyson is the new student. And more surprising still, he acts like he's never seen her before and treats her coldy. Confused, Noah tries to figure out what his deal is, and it does't help that they've been paired together for a class assignment that will take the whole year to complete. ((INITIAL DRAFT))

Chaya a.k.a Duck is badass without a doubt (or so she says) but that doesn't stop her from ogling hot guys, batting her eyelashes like she's in a desert storm, blushing like a psycho or joining a fight club.....wait a minute a normal girl wouldn't do that! Despite her innocent and childish exterior Duck never follows the rules. She's rude, insanely optimistic, and a failure at being the hopeless romantic she is. And when it comes to Duck the most important thing to remember is... expect the unexpected. Your support means the world to Duck and I ~^.^~ Thanks and don't forget to comment and vote. *** Amazing cover made by CottonCandySugarh ***
