Historias de Carouselseries

That means you get to see all the mistakes; a lack of punctuation, bad grammar and sorely needing an editor. The bones of the story are solid and it's cringe-worthy now but it was my first major piece of fan fiction and I'm still immensely proud of it. TLSOMS would end up spawning three sequels, which are part of the Carousel Series and can be found here, on Wattpad, as well.

Leaving the drinkers was the first brutal step, not towards healing, not towards clarity, but toward staying alive long enough to have a chance. This is the opening piece of *Carousel of Destruction*, a prequel cycle to *Barbed Wire Psalms* about the gravity of addiction, the people who kept spinning, and the moment you stepped off the ride.
