Balancing Us
They were never supposed to become a family this young. Forced into a marriage neither of them truly understood, two teenagers are pushed into a life filled with responsibility, sacrifice, heartbreak, and mistakes. Between long distances, betrayal, sleepless nights, and the struggle of raising a child while still growing up themselves, love becomes more complicated than either of them imagined. But somewhere between falling apart and learning to change, they begin to discover what family really means. Balancing Us: a story about growing up too soon, loving imperfectly, and finding each other through the chaos.Complete
Life experiences
I've been through my own struggle, whether it was created in my head by way of prolonged sadness or bitterness/resentment, or if I was struggling with things I had no control over like failed friendships, a broken heart, or family drama. This is my advice to you based off of my life experiences. Along with pieces of life experience advice I've included poetry and spoken word pieces from different perspectives and I try to break down life into beautiful words that people can relate to and see that we all struggle- you're not alone and we are each so valuable.Complete
Even If It Wasn't Love
Sometimes love isn't what it seems - it's pain, confusion, hope, and everything in between. Caught between the memories of what once was and the fear of what could be. She fell for the boy who made her feel seen, who built her up when she was broken - and then shattered her all over again. But even now, with all the pain, she can't let go. She still needs him. Still wants him. If you've ever been lost in the middle of love and doubt, this story is for you. Even If It Wasn't Love is a story about holding on to the very thing that's tearing you apart - and wondering if maybe, just maybe... it was love all along.Complete

The ones who knew us when we were dying┃ENHYPEN
Seven broken boys. One summer. One place they never chose. And three months to figure out how to live with things they never asked for. They meet inside the walls of a psychiatric recovery program, each carrying secrets, problems too heavy for their age. Some here because they broke, were caught, or because someone finally noticed. Strangers. Until they're not. Each day forces them on confronting a painful truth they've been running from. They'll have to face not just their own demons, but each other's as well. the ones they've kept hidden from everyone. if they want to find any chance of healing.
Fragments of Him
She thought she'd let it all go---until the memories came back. Years after middle school, the past still lingers in unexpected ways. Through dreams and quiet moments, she starts to remember pieces of a time she thought she'd outgrown. A boy. A friend group. A version of herself she hasn't seen in years that she almost forgot about. What begins as nostalgia slowly unravels into something deeper---a quiet ache she never named, emotions she buried before she understood them. As she sorts through the fragments, she begins to realize: healing doesn't always come from forgetting. Sometimes, it comes from remembering. A reflective and emotional coming-of-age story told through memory, loss, and the subtle power of looking back. Based on a true storyComplete
