So - would you be interested in this? I've already written some.
Blurb
The Blackwood family would appear, to the unknowing outsider, your average family. Almost perfect. Mum, dad, three children. Multiple caring, present uncles, aunts and cousins. However, look a bit closer and you might notice the middle child, Emilie, doesn't speak. The family don't really think about it much anymore though - she hasn't spoken since she was five. At first the family were terribly worried, with uncountable visits to doctors and therapists. But, with time, it became the new normal to the family. Everyone loves her for who she is, and although her older sister Sophia and her best friend Leo often wonder why, they still laugh and joke and often forget.
Life isn't always easy for Emilie, especially in school, but she still enjoys it.
However, a ten year long silence is sure to end at some point. Isn't it? And if it were to end, why? And why on earth did it start?

Mrs. Avery
Love is strange. It exists in many forms and is one of the key components that makes humans happy, but there isn't a lot of understanding surrounding it. At least not the kind of understanding with which the average person identifies. Agnes is one of the few people that can accept all kinds of love. Despite her dated name, she is a woman in her late 20's dealing with the death of most of her family. She's now stuck in the middle of figuring out how to raise children that she never saw in her future and deciding what love means for her, when it has to exist within layer upon layer of complication. She let go of her boyfriend after almost a decade because their love wasn't meant to exist under the strain of children, only to find herself confronted with the overpowering connection of her old high school sweetheart. The same man she ran away from because their values hardly aligned when it came to how love should be expressed long term. Within the midst of learning how to raise children and balance her ever-building career, Agnes tries to recover from her mother's death, seek comfort without complicating her circumstance, and figure out why her mother would name her Agnes. Finding real comfort starts to feel impossible, as her most available options are her ex-boyfriend and her assistant. Completed! Rejected 6 times** "This one just isn't for us." By far the most plain rejection I have ever received and I can respect it. 1/22/2022 - 1K 9/28/2022 - 10KComplete![Truth In Words ✓[Secrets Book 3]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/17474076-256-k107758.jpg)

Shattered
⚠️THIS STORY IS OLD. IT ISN'T VERY GOOD. THE OTHER BOOK IS BETTER⚠️ Adeline was a good kid. She worked hard, took care of herself, and didn't let anybody push her around. At least that's what the kids at school thought. But, like most people, she had secrets. Things nobody knew about her. Nobody knew her mother and stepfather hated her. Nobody knew she lived alone with her best friend. Nobody knew that, outside of school, she was a totally different person. Nobody knew what she had been through, and all the things that left her shattered. This is how she lived her life. This is the only life she had ever known. But what would happen if all of that changed? Could one school lecture, a mishap at the courthouse, and a DNA test change her life forever? For the better or for the worst, Adeline's life is about to change. And for once in her life, she might not have to keep so many secrets. ********************************* Started: 6/18/2022 Finished: 7/29/2022 © 2022 Taylor Sassone Cover by my awesome sister @owlhootsburger13Complete
