This young man didn't know what he would get into by joining the war.
he now pays the price for serving his country.
The story has been rewritten, I hope that this version of the story is better than the last.
I have ShxdowsDie and SaturnineSpheres to thank for giving me advice on how to improve.

Into The Trenches: A World War I Journal [2019]
It is 1914, and Henry Anderson is watching the world descend into war. Like many young men at the time, he is fascinated by the idea of warfare and glory. Henry enlists in the military against his parents' wishes and throws himself into the life of a British soldier in Flanders. But it is far from what he expects: Henry's fantasies of righteous battle fade into the grim reality of gruesome death and shell-shock. He and his fellow soldier Jacob must help each other survive the cruel trenches, but it is no longer certain that either of them will return to England alive. Told in journal entries and letters from Henry's sister Elizabeth, this reveals the realities and horrors of World War I, on the battlefield and in the homefront. I wrote this for a history project while studying WWI and got way too involved in it, so here you are. WARNINGS: gun/bomb/gas-related violence, war descriptions, graphic death, suicide attempt. I will mark specific chapters with warnings and give summaries of those chapters on the following one. These may not be complete, so if a chapter is not marked and should be, please comment to let me know. Written in 2019 (age 15).Complete
Shot in the dark - Dallas Winston
SHOT IN THE DARK (literally) My life was completely flipped upside down and why you might ask. Because I made the stupid decision to fall in love.

(This is a rewrite of a book I never ended up publishing) Started: October 26th 2021 Finished: April 13th 2022 I made an Instagram where I post edits I made of the characters from this book and just talk about writing this go follow if you'd like (@dallysdeadbixch_)Complete

If you look behind the lie, you'll find the truth irrefutable. This story was a challenge from a friend who bet me I couldn't write a story in 20,000 words or less. They were almost correct...but I was able to manage it. Barley. Though now I've been thinking of extending it to a couple more parts. Any takers?Complete

FAME│s.m
*SHORT STORY* He was over known while I was unknown. He could score goals while I could only wash counters and fill cars with a proper amount of gasoline. My town was apart of history while his town was apart of the present and supposedly the future. How did he end up here, with me? [Town name, person its based around, and some events come straight from the most vivid dream I've had.] [All characters are American.] [Please just go with the story, as it's apart of the fiction group so who cares if it's unrealistic.] [Yes, 18 year olds can still live with their parents and not go to college.] [NO HATE.] ~completed~Complete
