... And we watched as the stars once again aligned. •○•○•○•○•○•○•○•○•○•○•○•○•○•○•○•○•○•○• As the sun came up each morning, 17 year Jodie Collins was on her morning jog around the block, saying hi to all of her lovely neighbors in the rich part of town. Who am I kidding? That is a complete lie, like every other teen she was fast asleep having dreams about school that made her worry and then waking up and wishing that she dropped out when she had the chance. Jodie was an ordinary girl. She had friends, but wasn't popular. She liked sports, but wasn't an athlete. She had money, but she wasn't rich. And most of all she hated school, but still put in 100% of her effort. This story follows the ups and downs of an ordinary girl who is stuck in highschool and wants nothing more than to eat McDonalds without gaining weight. Enjoy

Cover by the amazing @LNRoberts1 It's 1983 and high school sophomore, Anne Kelly's home life is coming apart at the seams. What's more, her friends are hanging with the popular crowd, and Anne doesn't feel she fits in. She gradually becomes fixated with a shy junior on the swim team named Gavin Maloney, but her friends think he's a total loser. However, Anne only becomes more interested in Gavin, and she decides to take a prank her friends played on him a step further. She begins writing him letters, not the stupid anonymous notes her friends put in his locker to taunt him, but real letters. Gavin has lost his mom to cancer and his father has gone missing. He now lives with his grandfather who is in a deteriorating state of Alzheimer's disease. It's a secret that Gavin must keep. Nobody can know or they will separate Gavin from his grandfather and put them both in state run homes. Gavin's plan is to stay invisible. Once he turns 18, he'll be a legal adult and nobody will be able to separate him from his grandfather. He just has to hold out one more year. But it isn't easy. Everyone needs friends, and now this Anne girl has singled him out. Part of him aches for human contact, and he's not immune to her quirky sense of humor, but she might be totally insane. She's practically stalking him, and if he befriends her, she might find out about his grandfather and ruin his plan. But what if he just wrote her back?
