Inspired by "The Book of Qualites" by J. Ruth Gendler. My language arts teacher met the author of "The Book of Qualities" at a writing bootcamp and assigned the class a writing piece based off of the book. All of the writing featured in this short story is mine, the only thing that was used from "The Book of Qualities" was the idea of turning qualities into humans. No copyright infringement intended.

A Hero By Any Other Name [OLD]
[OLD. NEW VERSION OUT NOW.] One day, Alfred had mistakenly left his journal in the meeting room. He had left his stuff behind due to an emergency back at his home, and so; the remaining nations were appalled at finding something that he'd been writing in. And unfortunately, curiosity killed the cat. Many of the others began to read the pages, which led them all to realize that Alfred was a whole lot different than what they'd thought he'd be, for being the personification of the United States. Several twists and turns begin to crumble, as a hidden secret between Arthur, Matthew, and Alfred comes to light. While Matthew descends into mental chaos- the rest of the nations manage to take back the journal, only to find out some horrible secrets the American has about them.

Talk Softly and Carry Your Big Stick with Pride
A transgender woman on the biology, sociology, and history of the gender spectrum. Gender variance is nothing new. Our stories have been told as far back as the 23rd Century BCE. CHECKMATE, TRANSPHOBES! Our chromosomes come in all different variations, and even transgress into other chromosomal systems of different species, eventually transcending all the way back to asexual roots. CHECKMATE, NECKBEARDS! This is the book I wish I'd had when I first began transitioning. I had to look all over the place to find the answers - even just the questions - I was looking for. So I wrote this as a sort of bite-sized one-stop-shop on some of the different concepts that make us who we are. I hope the information found here can help others as much as it helped me. This book is also available in paperback and kindle formats at https://www.amazon.com/Talk-Softly-Carry-Stick-Pride/dp/1719068933/ref=tmm_pap_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=1539311722&sr=8-1Complete
Hot stuff; Leo Valdez x reader one shots
I'm sorry if I don't get your personality right. Just let me know you're listening, please. REQUESTS ARE OPEN! NO LEMONS! I'll try to do some fluff and stuff, but I have no experience. I'm still working on my writing skills, as in being more descriptive, so you might need a big imagination. I own no artwork unless specified. Actually, I own nothing but my OCs, which are going to be your new best friends! EDITED PART-- Hi! So, I won't be doing anymore oneshots for this book, but I do have an ongoing PJO/HOO/MCATGOA book, so you can check that out. It has less cringy, and less depressing, chapters.Complete
Empathetic
1/2 ------------------------------------------------ Kara. Marianna. Aaron. Emerson. Jonah. Trevor. Lily. Ms. Lewis. This is a story about unfortunate children with unfortunate problems, a special teacher to help them through it, and a clueless bystander who learns to shed her ignorance and see through the veil of pain that many of these kids dawn every day. ------------------------------------------------ This is a project I'm working on for my English class in school. It's called the 20time project. My teacher, an amazing woman, was inspired to do this project after learning about it after attending a sort of convention called Google Summit I believe. Basically, we are dedicating 20% of our time (not including after school hours) to work on a project of our choosing to somehow better the society in which we live. I chose to write a book. I thought it would be in my best interest to share.Complete

Positive Thinking by: Amit Abraham
Do you wish to achieve perfection, both in your relationship with yourself as well as with others? I know that you know but you do not know that you really do not know - get to know your 'self While reading this book each one of you will say "I know". No one knows himself better than the individual himself but how truthful are you about yourself? The biggest liar is the one who lies to himself. Do you really think you are the individual you know? Think and then think about what you have thought. Is it what you really thought? Ask your conscience because in this world there is nothing more honest and sincere than one's conscience. The two great movers of the human mind are the desire of good and the fear of evil. One should have a desire to be good and do well. Desire is the key to motivation. It is the key to develop a healthy personality and a positive attitude towards oneself and others. Let us begin by creating a desire to be good, to feel good about ourselves and others and a desire to analyse ourselves honestly. The gradual development of this attitude will surely help you take a big leap towards personality development.Complete

It was just a regular day for you, after an exhausting day of work, you got home and get your well-deserved day off. The only difference is that you've just bought an office-themed dating game and are planning to try it tonight! But there's one thing you didn't know, a whole new exciting adventure is waiting for you at the very moment you start the game. You'll meet even more and more characters/countries as you progress through the "game" The genders of the countries are gonna be what I felt most suitable, tho for some special cases, like France. I made these country twins, one male, and one female, with different names and different personas. I hope you wouldn't mind! Yes, cliche, I know, but eh... worth a shot.
