Meet Ashley Dawson. Rich, popular, you'd think she had it all. Unfortunately, that isn't quite the case. Her life at home is a complete mess. Her dad abuses her physically and verbally, her stepmother could rival the Wicked Witch of the West and her twin stepbrothers have made it their one goal in life to torment her. When one runaway attempt fails miserably, she decides to stay at home permanently, suck it up and be grateful for little mercies. However, all that changes when the only bright light in her life is snuffed out. She runs away again, this time more successfully, and ends up in the care of a crazy African family, with an especially crazy grandmother , who teach her the true meaning of love, life and light, in the Lord. Hold on to your seats folks, it's gonna be a bumpy ride. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "The world is spherical, meaning it's round so if you run away from your problems, you're gonna meet them again someday."- Gladys Martey.

(Now being rewritten as Milkshakes And Big Breaks) Sometimes, chasing your dreams can take you far away. In this case, Bridgit Thompson is already on her way out of this galaxy. She's ready to do anything in this whole world to be a popular, well known writer. One fateful day, she gets locked in the school library along with four other students. These students, however, share the same dream of wanting to be popular. When the five of them start receiving mysterious messages with clues that can help them reach their goals, everything changes drastically. They just have to follow the rules: as soon as they solve the clues, as soon as they'll be popular. An aspiring writer, a dream actor, an electronics freak, a makeup junkie, and a future singer doing the most stupid and dangerous things so they can be popular. Sounds like a perfect plan...for idiots, of course. Note: I am NOT a professional writer, but I try to correct my mistakes. I do NOT own the cover photo. I edited it, but it wasn't taken by me.
