A Girl's Mind
"She leaned on her windowsill and admired the silent beauty that laid before her. She sniffled and wiped away the remanding tears on her face. "If there is something wrong with me, what can I do to change it? I... I know I'm better than this. I know I'm a good person. What can I do to be a better person?," she looked up at the starry sky, hoping the answer would fall from the dark blue abyss."

My New Life
14 year old Audrey Black is a beautiful blonde, blue eyed, 5'3" girl but she has a few flaws, she is depressed and suicidal. She has been this way for over a year. It has been getting worse. In this story Audery goes through a lot of change, explaining the tittle "My New Life". I do get help for ideas from a few people when I need it, but the story is mostly my ideas. I hope you enjoy the story! and don't be afraid to vote and comment.

Play Pretend
While I've got you, and while we're alone ... can I share something with you? You know, man-to-reader? OK, fab. I am slowly becoming a girl. Yeah. Really. See, that girl you heard about just before my boring ass started chundering away about showers and carpets like a dodgy salesman, she's in my head. She has been for a really long time. Maybe soon, I'll go deeper into that. I hope that's put your minds at ease in an odd way - now you'll know why I dream from the perspective of a girl less than half my age. So, show of hands, how many of you have questions? One, two, thr ... yeah, I had a feeling it would be like this. I can't answer them right now, but I promise you will know me soon enough. Besides ... I'm counting on you for something. You, dear invisible reader, are going to play the role of my brain. I'm going to scribble down every thought, event and experience I have. You're going to be the way I no longer have to live life trapped in my own head 24/7. And eventually ... soon, you will be the reason I stop pretending. This is a promise I am making to myself, and you are all going to be witness. 2025 is the year I stop playing pretend.
