So, you know when people tell you it's complicated and you have them explain it and it wasn't actually all that complicated, they just didn't want to tell you about it? I wish it was like that. It's seriously complicated. Like, I went out one night, to run away from my mom - who has hated my guts since I was born - somehow got caught by some evil dude talking about a drug trade and a diamond store, then I was running away by foot, holding onto a guy's hand and then I was talking to him as often as possible. And then, when I thought my life couldn't get any weirder, I ended up having to hide him under my bed. All this while starting a new school, making the "wrong" friends and somehow pissing off most of the people that live near me.

Forgotten Memory (Editing)
Forgetting something you know you're supposed to remember is very annoying, but what happens if that something or someone is important.

I say as I still lie under the covers. My mother pulls my cover from my body and tosses it on the floor. I quickly sit up in my bed and glare at her. "Get your ass up now you have half an hour left before your first-period starts and you better not be late," she demands. "Mom, this isn't my school. This isn't my home. I don't want to go." I whine and beg my mother at the same time to let me stay home. What was I thinking? My mom has an image to uphold being this perfect mother who loves and cares about her little baby girl.

The Princess of Aranon
I can't do this. This isn't my life. This isn't who I am. What do they want from me? How can they expect me to do this. All these thoughts run through my head as I hear the words "You are a princess". It's insane. I can't be a princess. I can barely pass sophomore history. And now they expect me to come back to this far away kingdom and lead a fairy tale life? No way. Especially not after they tell me that I was sent away to be protected from those who seek the throne, the people who killed my real parents. I can't take the throne. I just can't.Complete

Barry's life
Two people fall in love in unlikely circumstances. They have a lot of psychological issues and mistrusts in the order of things to prevent them from finding themselves and each other. I am a reader of crime novels and hard science fiction almost exclusively, and yet this story, which I have been writing for a long time, is a love story, I can't explain it even to myself. The characters will have to work through hardship and evolve to be able to surrender to the magical things around them and the flow of the universe and the love of other people. This story still is a work in progress, it has holes and it is to be continued

Someone New ✓
"There comes a point where you no longer care if there's a light at the end of the tunnel or not. You're just sick of the tunnel." - Who I am doesn't matter. How I got here doesn't matter. What matters now is I'm getting help, right? That's what they tell me here. They tell me that the road to recovery feels like a terrible butt fuck, but the fact that you're on the path to begin with, is all that matters. So as I sit in this circle of fuck ups, I realize just how different I am from them. I didn't attempt suicide because my mother was a crack addict who didn't want me. My father wasn't abusive. I didn't have a sibling die in a car accident. I was never really bullied either. I attempted suicide because, for the first time in years, I thought I had found something that could make me feel again... and after not feeling much at all for far too long, perhaps I went a bit overboardComplete
