''Walking down the side path of the forest always made me feel comfortable, I loved nature, animals that you could only see out of towns, where they weren't disturbed by the noises of traffic or bright lights and you could watch them if you stayed silent and still''

Not As It Seems
This is a trilogy. Orphans accidentally stumble upon a magical world with blue grass & green sky. Everything seems wonderful at first, but it's all not as it seems... This story, these characters, have brought me comfort more times than I could count, they have saved me in every way possible. When it felt like I had no one, I always had them. When I felt sad or lonely, this world was a place I could hide. This world felt like my only home. I've been writing this story since I was 17, and it's hard to believe that I'm finally releasing it a couple months before I turn 21. But certain parts and characters were in my head from as young as 5. It's time to not gate keep this story anymore, and let it out into the world for people to hopefully enjoy. I hope these characters feel like your best friends, just like they did to me. I love writing so much, it's the only thing that makes me feel like I'm being completely myself. ~ Brody Bennett 💜 I apologise for any spelling or grammar mistakes. I'm still learning all the time on how to improve my writing.
