This book contains a daily dose of positivity. Sometimes, words are all people look for when they are carrying heavy responsibilities, silent struggles, and years of unheard and unseen emotions. A few comforting words can make someone feel understood, even when they don't know how to express what they are going through. But sometimes, words aren't enough. Still, I hope the words in this book reach you at the right time and help you in some way. Maybe you will find a little comfort, hope, strength, or simply a reminder that you are not alone. Read these words whenever you need them. Take what feels right for you, and leave behind what doesn't. I hope this book becomes a small place you can return to whenever life feels a little too heavy.

There are things we never name. A street we still remember without meaning to. A photograph we keep for reasons we cannot explain. A voice that belongs to another time. A place that feels different because someone once stood there. Somewhere between leaving and staying, between remembering and forgetting, there are little pieces of a life that refuse to disappear. Little Pieces of Everything is a collection of poems about what lingers-the moments that quietly follow us home, the people who become ghosts without ever dying, the love that was never given a proper ending, and the versions of ourselves that exist only in memory. Not every story has a beginning you can remember. Not every goodbye sounds like goodbye. And not everything we lose is truly gone. Perhaps some things are meant to remain- not as answers, but as little pieces of everything.

Three years ago, Caleb McKay changed Rose's life without ever realizing it. Now they're at the same university. But Rose isn't the awkward girl he remembers, Caleb isn't nearly as carefree as he pretends to be, and the friendship between Caleb and his best friend Blake is about to become far more complicated than either of them expects. Caleb has spent most of his life chasing the next distraction, basketball, alcohol, parties, girls, anything loud enough to drown out the suspicion that he will never quite be enough. Rose has spent years trying to become someone worth choosing. And Blake has spent his entire life doing everything right, only to realize that the perfect future waiting for him may be the last thing he actually wants. Between first loves and old wounds, jealousy and loyalty, family expectations and friendships pushed to their breaking point, the three of them will have to figure out who they are when the people around them stop telling them who they should be. Some people come into your life to love you. Some come to break your heart. And some do both.

This book is to help anyone heal themselves from the emotional/psychological impacts of trauma and neglect. This is an early WIP. with a lot more to come. It is also an attempt to bridge that gap and hopefully raise awareness and bring about much needed improvements to the therapeutic approaches used with people with CPTSD.

Melanie, an eighteen-year-old with blonde hair and delicate features, has always seen Chris, the popular quarterback of the school's football team, as her one true love. They have spent the past year in a sort of relationship limbo, with Chris keeping her waiting, promising a future that never came, while openly flirting with another girl. Melanie, in love and hopeful, gave him days, then weeks, then months, waiting for him to "choose what was real." Her patience and self-esteem slowly wore away, until she saw the other girl's name light up on Chris's phone, a clear confirmation of her fears. This moment of pain and revelation pushes her toward a turning point: she decides that she will no longer be Chris's backup option, nor his second chance.
