An extraordinarily sweet collection of letters I would have loved to receive if I was born in the era of a bustling New York full of tens of thousands that spoke hundreds of different languages and all people looked different. The letters are written to a young girl I imagined her name being Annabelle from an un named writer who writes about being on the ship, entering New York, the Immigration process, working in sweatshops, and everything inbetween

Sincerely Luna Rose
Dear Nobody, My name is Luna Rose Wesley and I'm just like any other girl my age. I have some secrets, I'm afraid of the future, I have some complicated relationships and some amazing friends, and I'm just trying to do anything that I can to survive. But as the days pass, it seems like surviving in my world is becoming more difficult with every minute. You see, without any money, my family is forced to live in in an apartment building that's smack dab in the center of our rundown part of the city. And my mother is just a work of art. She is now addicted to drugs, and she isn't trying very hard at all to try to get us out of our inner-city situation. Living in constant fear, not only of what's outside my window at night, but also of my violent dealing brother living in the room across the hall, I have to find a way to cope without putting a bullet in my skull like so many of my fallen brethren. And my coping mechanism is to write letters to nobody- to you- and sending it to an address that doesn't exist. I need somebody to talk to without that somebody thinking that I'm looking for pity, so I've found you. Nobody. Thanks for listening. Sincerely, Luna Rose (Rated Mature for the mentioning of sex, drug use, violence, and profane language. Does not contain actual sex scenes.)Complete
Journey
*Completed* So I wrote this when I was like 16, so it might be a little cringy. I'm trying to work on it right now. You've been warned Annabelle Easton, a nineteen year old with her future planned out by wealth, ran head first into the biggest mistake of her life. Annie's mundane life spiraled into a world of romance, pain, and mystery after she set foot inside that cave. Meeting a new fate and the love of her life through a tedious adventure of a lifetime. Was setting foot in that cave such a big mistake after all?Complete

He's A Monster
I was more than the injections, the past, and a "normal boy."

TO THE SMILE
There were ordinary but pitiful people who lived on this land that I saw when I was young. Their lives passed like the wind and now I'm going to tell you about them you didn't know. . . I, who still think I'm not good enough, will now write with all my passion and dedication, but if I ever get lost or collapse from exhaustion, even if it's just one of their souls, I ask them to come running to me and help.Complete
Sudden Departure
I never actually feared death, nor did I fear dying. I think I had a pretty healthy awareness of it. I was more afraid of what came after it. I know, pretty morbid thoughts for a seventeen year old to have, but when your life is all around "perfect" what can you expect? Not everything goes right... ~~SD~~ Shailene O'Laughlin faced a life altering tragedy, one that cost her her life and her identity. She's transported to The Barracks and forced to be made part of a war and a world that she doesn't understand. To make matters worse, it's a world that she has no place in. Something about her soul is different, and nobody knows why. No one wants to find out why more than her, but will love, mischief, and a power struggle get in her way?Complete
