A desolate soul leaves this place with a burden too heavy, as two lovers face their end, bloody and violent. A pale chemo-socked soul cries out in pain somewhere, as a mother weeps for her daughter to come back. A fun school trip, a sad funeral, happy births, painful deaths, a suspenseful murder, horrifying suicide, strong friendships, huge bar fights, and everything else in between.

Growing Pains
In the day-to-day trenches of high school, it is almost the default-setting to believe we are the main character of our own coming-of-age story. This is not wrong. It's just ours isn't the only story there is. The jocks, the nerds, the cheerleaders, the losers, the stoners, the fangirls, the skaters. Everyone's the realest most important person in existence, all of them, at the same time, first-person narrators to their own stories, stumbling into each other's plot lines, defying the status-quo, catalysts to ups and downs. A deconstruction of all the high school tropes and cliches written over the years, a deep-dive into the psyche of students trying to finish high school while going through irrevocable self-discovery, the most improbable of connections, and the insufferable pains of growing up.Complete
