#PlanetorPlastic
This is  a snapshot story of the life of a sea turtle in a plastic polluted world. 

An entry for the National Geographic competition to raise awareness on how our actions impact not only us. Dont worry, its in story form, i left my expository essay days behind me in high school. 

We might not think much of plastic pollution, but we are not the only species affected by it. Let's do better, if not for us, then for them. Thousands of tons of plastic (most coming from inland) end up in the ocean. 

Inspired by "For Animals, Plastic Is Turning the Ocean Into a Minefield" from National Geographic. 
https://www.nationalgeographic.com/magazine/2018/06/plastic-planet-animals-wildlife-impact-waste-pollution/ 

497 words :). This story is entirely my own work, a figment of my imagination with influence from national geographic's "Planet or Plastic".

From Darkness Comes - Book 2 in The Dissonance Series by B_Ander

She survived the end. But it's only the beginning. Ever thought escaping Earth meant survival. Instead, it meant sacrifice. She lost her parents, her sister, and the two boys she loves-left behind to an uncertain fate. Now, on a distant planet she never asked to call home, Ever reunites with the brother she thought was dead. But this new world is not the refuge it promised to be. Her sister's haunting last words echo in her mind: "Your friends may be your foes, and your foes may be your only chance for survival." With her memories fractured by reimaging, Ever struggles to tell truth from illusion, ally from enemy-even within herself. As a genetically modified human, she carries a dangerous secret: she may be the only woman capable of creating life. To Environettix, the ruthless corporation pulling the strings, that makes her their most valuable-and most vulnerable-target. And she isn't the only one. The other Mods brought from Earth are caught in the same web of lies, their very existence exploited for an agenda darker than they ever imagined. But the planet itself holds secrets of its own. And Ever is beginning to realize a chilling truth: they don't belong here. And when something doesn't belong, it's only a matter of time before it's erased. *This is Book 2 in The Dissonance Series
