"There is only one bad thing that has happened to me, and it hasn't happened yet."
Freddie is a history major who has always been fascinated by how one change can spiral out of control and change everything. Unfortunately, he is also a history major who writes exams. If Freddie hadn't, perhaps Baker would not have lept off their balcony and fallen to his death. If Freddie hadn't, perhaps he would have learned why Baker wanted to end his life.
They didn't talk about things like that while Baker was alive.
When Freddie receives a letter under his door, offering the chance to go back one week and save Baker's life, in exchange for his soul, he accepts. And he's got three tries to get it right, not that needs them. All he needs is one last attempt.

how to catch feelings
Nat returns to campus for her senior year of college. Something's in the air - is it anxiety? Is it pot fumes drifting out of someone's dorm window? Is it Old Town Road, dancing on the breeze? Ope, nope, it's just hope (haha) that maybe, just maybe, a certain friendship with a certain someone might turn into something more. *** YA romcom/murder mystery because why not? Marked mature for language and mention of suicide. *** Excuse the cringey description, I don't usually write this kind of YA.Complete

Alone Forever [COMPLETED]
Oh my god, this was written in fifth grade (with attempts to edit and fix it in 9th before promptly giving up) and I thought it was peak writing at the time. Reuploading it for the sake of not having to re-explain the plot to my friends while I redo the story. Enjoy 🫶🏾 - - - - - - I wrote this book in order to cope with things going on in my life. It's not the best, but it gets better as you keep reading. The last chapter is personally my favorite because I think I did my best writing towards the end. I know I'm not the best author, but I'm trying my best. Please don't hate me:( This book also contains mentions of suicide, ED, depression, foul language, discrimination against LGBTQ+, abuse, rape, and more. If any of these things happen to trigger you, I recommend that you don't read it for your own safety. There are offensive slurs directed towards LGBTQ+ community, but I want you all to know that I have nothing against them. I support them and this book was also written to bring attention to things people don't like to see or talk about or acknowledge. Alexander Crow has a name on his wrist like everyone else. That name is the name of your soulmate. The only problem with him is that his soulmate is another guy, Ryan Creak, and it keeps changing. Although it's pretty normal to have gay people around, Alexander is an exception. No one chooses to do anything when seeing him be attacked by people due to his sexuality. Everyone sees him the same way. A gay, lifeless, freak. It's highly uncommon to have the condition he has and since no one is used to it, they choose to fight it. Fight him. I hope you enjoy the book:) If you do, leave a comment or like, or don't. As long as you enjoy it. And feel free to leave comments on mistakes I may have or things you may be confused about:)Complete

The Suicide Notebook
"Make sure you are something before you fade to nothing," is a statement that Lucky takes to heart. At Bayridge High, a prestigious boarding school on the east coast of the U.S.A., they have a legend. A legend of tortured teens, and lost souls, a legend of tragedy. Bayridge has the highest suicide rate of the country, and one of the highest cumulative GPA's. Every cautionary tale, every kid who died young in that school kept a record in the suicide notebook. Detailing their thoughts, their feelings, their everyday lives until their lives were history. And Lucky knows he's next. He finds the notebook from subtle clues dropped by a mysterious upperclassman. He expects to find stories, beautiful and tragic in their nature. What he finds is so much more. A note: This story is labeled as sci-fi. I swear most of the weird things and things that seem slightly off around lucky will be scientifically fictionally explained. It becomes very very sci fi when the huge gigantic plot twist occurs. Update schedule: Everyday Highest rank: 5 in science fiction Nominated for The Emerald Awards, The Literary Awards, Indigo Awards, The Global Awards, The Fiction Awards, and the Aspiring Authors Awards Some people offered to do some grammatical and plot editing in my book, so if you see these usernames with suggested edits, please don't call them grammar nazis! delennjadzia jamesflint1998Complete
