A first-person, self-insert, fanfiction-style story; It spans from the start of the life of Y/N to the present day, and deepdives into the complex emotional turmoil of the band of "The Beatles" and society norms of what many would call the golden decades of the world in music and media. AUTHOR'S NOTE: Y/N is portrayed throughout the story as female-presenting with she/her pronouns. This story also covers mature themes, like romance, abusive relationships, and body-image. I want it to not only be a dramatic, juicy story of a girl who wanted to Rock and Roll with a group of guys, but also to create commentary on society when it comes to fame. I want it to make you think once the story starts progressing. Additionally, I did try to make all events chronological and canon to real life, but I did take a good amount of creative liberties when writing plotlines.

A completed story I wrote as a teenager back in 2003 about time-travelling back to the fifties and finding Cliff Richard.

It was the height of sock hops and jukeboxes. The time when Rock 'n Roll was the soul of the nation and milkshakes ruled the soda shops. Everybody said it was "fabulous", but for Eleanor Harper the 1950's was the best and worst years of her life. After the loss of her father forces her to leave her childhood home, Eleanor Harper is faced with finishing her last few months of high school in a new town halfway across the country. As if her life couldn't get any worse, a clumsy moment lands her at the feet of the most infamous greaser in school, Rider Hale. He's got more rumors coiled around his name than he's got tattoos, and Ellie has every intention to stay as far away from Rider as possible But when a horrible coincidence lands the new girl and the greaser as class partners, Ellie has no choice but to work with Rider if she wants to graduate this year. But as Ellie gets to know Rider, she soon discovers that the greaser isn't all his reputation tells. ---
