Being a teenager isn't easy, especially when you have lost someone dearly, are relocated halfway across the country and have to start afresh, have insecurities with your changing body image, and have a guilty sub-conscience that never let's you forget your mistakes. And to add on all of that is the unspoken demanding pressure bestowed on you to elate your family's financial crisis.
But at the end of it all, we have a choice to make. Whether to gloat or to grow.
What will Skylar Crawford do?
Will she hold on to the little positivity she can find and better her situation? Will she stay trapped in the memories of her flowery past? Or will she just give up and end her misery once in for all?

Youthful Wishes
High school is the period of your life where you feel older and independent. It's also the time where you're restricted and forced into a slim expectation by standards and norms. High school is the last bit of youth you have before you are let loose into the sticky web of life. Within your last years of schooling, your habits and behaviors are what determine if you are a fly or a spider (at least that's what some people say). Clare Carter and her new group of friends are kicking off the school year in a powerful way as they battle new conflicts and the process of becoming high school students and young adults. Each character has their own unique story and background that will represent how they take each situation that comes up. They must tackle drama that takes place at school and home, as well as survive the activities that Freshman get to experience (homecoming, clubs, heartbreaks/relationships, the stress of doing well in school and figuring out a plan after they graduate). This group of friends are scheduled for a wave of realization if they think they'll stick together throughout all four years of high school. This story is created with my OCs that I have fun drawing. This is not an attempt to be a grand author or writer. I am merely using this opportunity as experience for fleshing out my characters and their personalities and backgrounds. The maturity setting was set to ON because any mentions of depression, suicidality, anxiety, sexuality, etc.. were placed under the mature label. This statement serves as a trigger warning that the topics/themes mentioned above ARE present in this story.Complete
Changes: Misunderstood Book 3
~We're all desperate to be understood, we forget to be understanding.~ A small town teen living in Pennsylvania, also known as Rosalie O'Adrian, is having some problems. "What are they?"

Also losing her mother makes everything even worse. She feels alone, lost, and stuck. When she thinks that she finds the solution to all of her worries and problems, she's stuck once again.

This book may make you depressed and you will sit in your room and cry forever. You may be pissed off, which I am like that all the time. You may laugh at some of the puns I have included, this book just has so many surprises. Go check out, the first two books! *Changes Book 1 *Changes: A New Life Book 2 Cover made deliciously by REVEKAH a.k.a @BeYourself101xxComplete

The Beginning, Middle, but not the End
Jodie Sizemore is a normal teenager--she lives in a nice house, goes to a good school, and has a group of loyal friends. However, there are a few inevitable obstacles that seem to prevent her from enjoying her life, also known as Generalized Anxiety Disorder and Depression. Something that society commonly forgets is that not everyone who struggles with their health can be shown physically but rather mentally, and "The Beginning, Middle, But Not The End" unveils this stigma. It isn't until Jodie hits an all-time-low that she is able to climb out of the darkness of her mind and take her life back by the reigns. ***TRIGGER WARNING*** Please practice self-care if you are going to read this book. It contains themes of mental health such as depression, anorexia, and anxiety. Remember to always take care of yourself, physically and mentally.Complete
