The Writer In You: Begin your story. Claim your voice.
You're not "not a writer." You're just stuck in the part nobody warns you about. You've got scenes in your head. Lines that hit you in the shower. A whole book living in your chest-pressing on your ribs like it wants OUT. And then... you open a blank page and freeze. You overthink. You edit. You doubt. You promise "tomorrow." Tomorrow turns into months. Months turn into years. That ends here. The Writer In You: Begin your story. Claim your voice. isn't a fluffy "believe in yourself" pep talk. It's a quick, real-life guide built for busy, overwhelmed people who still want to finish something that matters.

Emotional// The one-shot book
Most of my book ideas come from an suddent surge of emotion. I need to write it out so I can get it off my chest. Or rather belly. When I get an idea it just starts swelling in my stomach and spreads to my lungs and it hurts but I'm so inspired and hungry that I want to write the one-shot quickly. Or slowly. THERE'S SMUT BUT YOU CAN IGNORE IT.

Sugar High
I have always been a planner. Never the girl to leap before look at the drop. The type to have a plan and then a back up plan for that first one. However, when I stormed up the stairs of Daniel's house ready to give him an earful I didn't have a plan. I didn't have a plan for what to do when he wasn't sitting at his corner desk. I didn't plan on going over to that desk and looking through his things. I didn't plan on opening up his science textbook. Didn't plan on seeing the large cut out in the center of all the pages. Didn't plan on switching out the white powdery drugs for the sugar from fake sugar baby that we got for health class. That is my story and I plan on sticking with it. However, the mafia chasing after me might not understand that it was all a tiny misunderstanding. Warnings: Violence and DrugsComplete
