This is the story of Alex, a young teenager with a lot of problems. This is all of it until Ash, a yound sparkling girl, comes in her life as a wonderful friend to count on in every situation! [Author's note: This story was last updated the 25th of December, 2015. It was later deleted by myself in an act of pure hubris. This merely serves as an archive to witness how terrible I was at writing as a wee 13 year-old. Also to be noted that everything relating to gender dysphoria or queerness was not informed at all! Luckily, I've grown and know better. This view of gender queerness is not representative of who I am today!]

This is not a happy, feel-good story. This is a story of heartbreak, of a person being utterly destroyed. However, it is also a story of true friendship and loyalty, of finding oneself, of unwavering love. It is a story of keeping promises, no matter how much it kills you to keep them. (Not my cover photo) Condensed and more succinct version of previous story Bit of an 'origin story' to Hiraeth (WIP) which shows how much grief can interfere with living your life. TW: mental illness, death, abuse, suicide, drug abuse, violence, assault, sexual assault This novel is told from the perspective of Alex - as she grows up with her best friend, Andy. It follows 15 years of friendship, in the format of monthly journal entries. Andy and Alex's teen angst evolves into harsh adult realities, but they always have each other. It shines a light on a lot of prevalent issues in society: addiction, stalking, assault, abuse, mental illness, and the ever-present grief of losing loved ones. Andy and Alex never get the timing right in their love for one another, and often drift apart as a result - but they can always find each other again.
