The Sadist in Us

~Zack smiled watching Ava's cheeks turn hot-pink. Goosebumps scattered over her bare shoulders. Everyone in the audience bounced looks off of each other, searching for how to respond.
Were they all sadistic? Probably. Why else would they be here?~

This novella follows a group of pre-smartphone teenagers and the evolution of their secret, co-ed fight club. In Tammy's basement, they find new ways to escape cultural expectations, rocky parental relationships, and themselves. But will they ever escape the basement?
Loosely based on a true story, L. CLARK's debut captures the nauncies of a culture specific to rural, Bible Belt towns in an early 2000s USA. With raunchy fight scenes and heartbreakingly relatable traumas, The Sadist in Us is a literary fiction that keeps you asking questions.

{This is a book previously self-published by me, L. CLARK, on Am*zon. I decided to share a good amount of the book, for free, here on Wattpad a chapter at a time. I believe art, especially lgbt written art, needs to be made accessible more than anything right now.}
