I went to speech camp and learned all about rhetoric. How the words you say and how you say them can move groups of people to action. We discussed the beauty and danger of this. How throughout history, some people used rhetoric to inspire groups to do great good while others inspire people to horrific evil.....so I got thinking....

If you could make a disgusting evil idea seem virtues and empowering, could you make a nonsensical idea seem inspiring?

Hence this was born! 

Using many of the skills I learned that week, I wrote and preformed a dramatic reading of this at the last-day talent show. Super fun, learned so much with this silly speech!

The ties that bind

58 parts Complete

A family that once loved her. A crime she never committed. And a past that won't stay buried. For years, Serena Rossi lived in hell, locked away in a place that felt more like a prison than a school. She was punished for a crime she didn't commit-attempting to murder her twin sister, Sofia. The truth? Buried. Now, after years of silence, Serena's called home-to a family she barely recognizes. Her parents are dead, and her twin sister is alive. But everything has changed. Sofia, the one person Serena loved more than anyone, now sees her as a monster. Her brothers? They can't forgive her. Serena's heart aches as she tries to piece together the truth-about her family, about the betrayal, and about the mother who tried to kill her to hide the twisted secrets of the past. But as the past comes rushing back, someone from the shadows is ready to finish what was started. The lies, the pain, and the broken bonds threaten to tear everything apart. Will the truth ever set them free? Or is it too late to fix what's been broken?
