We hope you'll be inspired, shocked, amused, and touched by this selection of letters from the DearTeenMe.com website. 'How awesome would it be if authors wrote letters to their teen selves?' A year and a half later, you can pick up DEAR TEEN ME from Zest Books, read more on the website, or just kick back and enjoy the selection we'll be posting here. Co-curators: E. Kristin Anderson and Priya Chand. The individual letters are property of the contributing authors. We can't guarantee your head won't explode from the mix of angst and excitement, but you *will* enjoy the ride.

Jamie has moved into the house next to her school's bad boy, they become closer and closer and become good friends. Jamie has a barrier and a very scary past that would scare every person off, she doesn't want to let Olly in and tell him her past. Will Olly be able to break down Jamie's barriers? Or will Jamie be able to hide herself and her past but still manage to be good friends will Olly? --- I know the description isn't very good but I promise you'll like the story! Thanks! --- #Wattys2016
