This play is about 3 best friends at Proverbs High-school going into their Junior year in the '80s of Spring Hill, Florida. One of the African American descent (Taivon Taylor), one of the Hispanic descent (Marcus Mendez) and one of the Caucasian descent (Derek Davis). Join them and experience the friendship and how it will be tested, along with the interracial relationships they try to pursue and the trials and tribulations that follow them. Welcome to the Multi-Cultural life between 3 timid friends. Will they find romance in their High-school crush or just the trouble that lurks nearby?
Through online research of the history and culture of Spring Hill, I found out that the county starts up on August 14th. I just so happens to be lead with Caucasian (including White Hispanic), Non Hispanic White and then Hispanic (or Latino). There just so happens to be a quintessential few of the African American descent.
Just for the fun of it, I found myself going through the whole Bruno Mars 24K Album and imagining how I could set up each song into a Musical. With some motivation from my Father during a trip down to South Carolina for the Thanksgiving Break of 2017 Timid was born.
My name is Steven Hall. At this moment, I am a graduating Senior Music Recording Technology Major with a Minor in Theater from Hampton, University. I would like to formally introduce to you the first play I have written. I have had the pleasure to work this through for a few years with the help of Susan Chavez and Tyree Champion.

Honoria Song was at Bridewater College with goals: good academic grades, a strong social network, to improve her magic and to try things she'd never dared to back home. Gone was the obedient, perfect daughter who'd never dared to venture out of her social circle. In her place was the new and improved Honoria, someone willing to take risks and push herself to her very limits in her pursuit of excellence. But England was no Hong Kong, and between the culture shock and change in environment, alongside the never ending stress of her JCMs (the magician's version of the GCSEs), she'll have to juggle the constantly evolving social scene of her new school alongside her newfound friendships and commitments. Her new friends were nothing like she'd expected. There's the shy and bitter Luo Yunji, a girl whose best friends were the instruments she held in her hand; rich and charismatic Adelina Roche, the envy of all, yet struggling with her family's crushing expectations and standards; James Withington, Adelina's childhood rival, a constant thorn in their side; James Taylor, quiet and observant and brilliant (but only in certain areas); the charming and cocky Sebastian Hong, who confuses her to no end; and mysterious and reserved Theodore Yu, the constant observer. But what was she here for, if not a challenge? karlie nyx 2022 summer project - completed book 1 of the bridewater college duology [90,000 - 100,000 words]Complete

Spinning Out✔️
His brows furrowed in frustration. "You keep tensing up and it's making me lose my grip." I was tensing up because I didn't trust him. It didn't take a genius to know that. I hadn't been used to falling in a while. "You need to relax." He said looking me up and down. My jaw clenched. "Oh, so I'm the problem?" I crossed my arms. "You can't even lift me." I said raising my voice. This was never going to work. "I could if you'd stop shifting your weight." I rolled my eyes and shook my head. I was going to kill Jackson Nova. ------------------------------ Luna Martinez has been dancing for as long as she can remember. But she has a medical condition that no one knows about and dancing might actually kill her. Then one day, Jackson Nova, the last person she ever wants to see shows up at the studio throwing her off her balance. Jax Nova is a star dancer, well-known in New York City because his father owns The Nova Dance Company. After a comment that makes him question if he really is meant to be dancing, he decides to make a change in his life.

And they can barely stop arguing to even practice with each other. Started: November 2021 Completed: August 2022Complete
It Started in Spanish
Anthony stops at my bare shoulder and leans down to press a hot kiss onto the skin. "You can't say things like that.." He delivers another, this one to my collarbone and making my words grow weak, unconvincing ... even as they come from my own mouth. "We're supposed to be ... friends." Anthony is quiet at first, the only response I get being his free hand drifting over to cage my body into the small space between us. "I know .." He trails off. It goes dead silent for a second. "But I ... don't think that's enough for me, B." There's a sharp breath from me at the words and a flush of heat to my cheeks when Anthony pushes my hair over my shoulder. His actions expose me to him, showing off my bare shoulders in a way that's downright indecent as the straps pulled down now hang loosely off my arms. "I don't want .. to be just a friend to you." And then, there's another kiss to pair. Although it isn't a simple peck this time. It's an actual kiss now, slow and softly pressed onto my neck. Beatrix thought she'd never trust another guy again. After being burned, both physically and emotionally by her ex-boyfriend Rudy in her senior year of high school, Beatrix's trust in people is low. That is, until she transfers to the esteemed, private Highland University. It's a fresh start to give the girl what she wants most: A shot at normalcy. The plan is simple .. just keep her head down, study her ass off, try to become a functional person once again and hopefully make one friend or two. Everything was supposed to start over that year. She'd had high hopes of starting anew and faithfully prepared to blend in to the background. And the day goes well. Until she sits down in Spanish, where she meets Anthony Gamaro. After a slight misunderstanding, Beatrix finds herself in an odd friendship with the 20 year old football player. One that slowly helps her regain the confidence she'd long lost before.

F***in' Arizona
How bad could it be to enlist your female best friend into helping you lie to your Christian family about your new relationship with your male best friend and about your newfound sexuality? Not that bad, right? Right??? --------- Nova Queen and Arizona "Ari" Matthews weren't always close in high school, but after an intense and serious conversation in the library one day, the two become the best of friends until they go their separate ways their freshman year of college. Now in their mid 20s and freshly out of grad school, they are reunited in the park of their hometown where Ari asks a huge favor of Nova that she later wishes she had refused. But in the end, will she really wish she had refused? *FA spans a timeline from 2010-2020 to help the reader see how the relationships were built between characters in a partial series of flashbacks. It also helps the reader to really see into the minds of Arizona and Nova as they age, and the effect different life events have on them. It's a bit of a slower build and the plot is mostly seen a little later in the book, but I promise it's worth it. 🙂 *I do not own any of the rights to the music nor the pictures. *Rated M for language, sexual content, destructive behaviors, suicide, and dialogue that may be triggering for some readers. *These characters may do or say things that you don't agree or may get upset with, please remember YOU ARE NOT THESE PEOPLE, and their lives are a work of fiction and my imagination.

My Confessional
Writing a memoir at only fifteen years old has taught me a lot. Giving me the time to reflect on the lessons I learned the hard way and the mistakes I've made thus far. I learned, if there is at least two sides to every story, there is at least two sides to every person. What could be a smile is a broken heart in a deeper reality. We all live in a society where nothing is as it seems, the people being more complex and astonishing than the countless novels we read. And in a world ruled by tragedies, we are the survivors. Getting through our own history, more important to us then what we read in school. We take our story one page at a time, word by word because in the end, it will all be worth it. I dedicate this memoir to the people who have been with me on my journey of self discovery, even if only in spirit. Mom- Who has made non stop sacrifices to ensure my happiness and well being. Nothing would be possible without you! Grandma- Who has inspired me and made a huge influence to the person I am now and who I'll be in the future. Callie- My own personal slave, illustrator, editor and full time best friend. You know I love you <3 Ariana Grande- My celebrity inspiration, showing me that it's ok to "love who you love, no one can judge, follow your heart and don't give up", getting me through the long and lonely nights. Be sure to buy her new album "Moonlight", hopefully to be released this year and her new fragrance "Ari" in accordance to the "Be You" campaign. Adam Young (Of Owl City)- My first artist I listened to, your songs make me think of the past and the new adventures to come. Sam Tsui- The album "Make it up" taught me to not be scared of not knowing what's going to happen next. Being young and naive Isn't necessarily a bad thing, as it brings way to new experiences, to be vulnerable and crying doesn't make you any less of a person. That we're all human and it's ok to embrace it.Complete
