There's nothing important about him. He's just another circus freak, after all.
Casey had big dreams, and he was insisting on pursuing them, even if all he wanted to be was a part of a famous circus act. He thought the world was everyone's friend, and nothing would stand in the way, but he came in for a big surprise when his very own sister turned into his greatest enemy. Insults were nothing to him, but sabotaging the start of his career is crossing the line.
A sweet, innocent child with hopes and dreams grew into a violent, ruthless teenager. Courtrooms and jail cells became his best friend. A bad reputation followed him everywhere he went, no matter the city or state. It got to the point where his parents started to lose faith in their son, so they chose to act.
Pity that Casey's parents chose the wrong thing for their only son.
Even though his body was found hanging from the basement ceiling, he would pursue his dream one way or another. He always said that you can't get rid of him easily, but nobody believed him. He's just another circus freak, right?

Why We Laugh (#Wattys2018)
"The laugh cracked loudly into the school's atrium, like a shot of a gun. A quick bullet. A deadly bullet the pierces through flesh and bone. I realized then... that a laugh was as lethal as a bullet." I thought bullying didn't exist. And if it did, I wasn't a bully. Except I was. We all were. Not because we beat kids up. Or we called people freaks. Or gave them swirlies. Because we never did that. It was because we laughed." For these three kids, a playful laugh cuts deeper than a fist ever would. And the worst part is...they laugh along. 1.Eliza hides behind the brightest smile and stuttered words. 2.Reece desires the perfect body and will destroy himself to do it. 3.Hunter is the bad boy with sick suicidal jokes, screwing both Prozac and girls. But it is more than just those three: 4.London sits in her wheelchair trying to be normal 5. Ashton needs to return to the surface of people and stop cowering in the digital world 6. Griffith hides his autistic emotions. The story is told by a girl who always laughs. Drama, love, pain, tears, laughter, depression, weaknesses. We all laugh. But what does our laugh truly effect? "Hands down this is the best book I've read on wattpad. I don't even know what to say. I mean... I just.... Wow." -Irxdeo This book deals with heavy topics such as depression, suicide, eating disorders, abuse, so read carefully. I want to say some of these characters and scenes in the beginning are based on real people and real events, but some are not. Hi, guys! Thanks for checking this story out.

When her plans of leaving suddenly change, and she is forced to start attending the local school, her life takes a route that she hadn't accounted for. A new group of friends, a chance at a normal teenage life, even a potential love interest - things that Amelia had never even thought about happening after everything she'd been through.

Things start happening in Amelia's life that simply don't make sense, even to her. They do say you should always keep an eye over your shoulder, especially when you know you're being hunted, but for Amelia, even an eye in every direction wouldn't be enough. Time begins counting down, fast. Did she want to involve her friends? Could the new people in her life be trusted? She wouldn't have long to make a decision.
