Teen-writer Stories

Learn for the sheer love of it, not for the applause or approval of others. Your worth isn't tethered to your grades, your work, or the expectations of the world. Even when you fall short of that perfect score, you are enough-your value shines in your curiosity, your effort, and your unique spirit. Find joy in the quiet moments of discovery, in the spark of understanding something new, rather than striving to prove your brilliance or to seem special in others' eyes. Let learning be a gift you give yourself, not a stage to perform for the world.

A girl, hybrid of plant creature and human, tries to find a new life after escaping her family. She runs into a wandering sorcerer, and together they try to find peace. But nothing bad ever happens once, and she's afraid to lose everything again.
