A collection of all of the Of Mice & Men one shots that I've ever written. All touched up, edited, etc. September 2017. I don't write band fanfiction anymore at all, these are all from when I was 14 - 16, just small corrections in the works. I felt like posting my old fanfics for old time's sake! But if anybody requests, I will write additional parts to some of these! Also, you don't have to be a fan of the band to read this - or even know who they are. All characters are described in every part. Sofia Kennedy is a replacement for 'Y/N' in all of these pieces.

Psychiatrist Viktor Frankl's memoir has riveted generations of readers with its descriptions of life in Nazi death camps and its lessons for spiritual survival. Based on his own experience and the stories of his patients, Frankl argues that we cannot avoid suffering but we can choose how to cope with it, find meaning in it, and move forward. At the heart of his theory, known as logotherapy, is a conviction that the primary human drive is not pleasure but the pursuit of what we find meaningful. "Man's Search For Meaning" has become one if the most influential books in America; it continues to inspire us all to find significance in the very act of living. Born in Vienna in 1905, Viktor E. Frankl published more than thirty books in theoretical and clinical psychology and gained international renown. He died in 1997. •-•-•-•-• "One of the great books of our time." -Harold S. Kushner, author of "When Bad Things Happen to Good People" "An enduring work of survival literature." -Nee York Times

WATTPAD BOOKS EDITION Can she be herself in a one-size-fits-all world? Lori Palmer is the new girl at Bay Water High, where students prize glossy hair, beach bodies, and school spirit above all else. She misses her old school―where her talent as an artist carried more weight than she does―and longs for her old family life, before her parents got divorced and her mom reinvented herself. So Lori decides that the only way to survive the rest of the year is to blend into the background, but her plans go awry when she discovers that the most popular (and hottest) guy at Bay Water High, Jake, is a volunteer at her brother's school. When her brother befriends Jake's sister, Lori is suddenly thrust into his unfamiliar and exhilarating world of water polo, parties, and stargazing. But with her relationship with her mother deteriorating, old anxieties resurface and Lori finds a new artistic release that unknowingly ignites a powerful movement. When the authorities start asking questions, Lori realizes that finding her voice might have gotten her into a world of trouble...but sometimes standing up for what you believe in is as important as standing up for yourself.
