Based on a true story.
Some people are living their lives, chasing dreams and happiness.
But some people are just existing.
The Weight of Existing is a diary-style story about a girl who has a loving family, a caring mother, and a normal life, yet quietly struggles with anxiety, overthinking, hurtful words, and the feeling of not being attached to life.
She doesn't want to die.
She's just tired of carrying the weight of existing.
This story is about silent battles, misunderstood emotions, faith, family, and surviving even when life feels heavy.
Not everything in this story will be revealed, because some pain is meant to stay private.
But maybe, somewhere in these pages, you will find a part of yourself too.

Make It Louder (Prism Series #2)
Jaxian Drex "Jaxie" Malverez is the savage, pink-leather-clad drummer of Auxeria High, an openly gay rockstar whose life is a masterpiece of sharp edges. His world is governed by a meticulous order where only his music and his attraction to men have a place, leaving no room for the "maarte" drama of the female species. Kaelira Vynne "Kae" Castellano, the soft, jolly, and hopelessly naive transferee from Europe, is the walking violation of his peace and the ultimate distraction to his focus. But when her "conyo" charm and constant habit of getting into trouble trigger a fierce, possessive protectiveness in Jax, his carefully constructed identity begins to fracture. The heart he swore only beat for boys now thunders uncontrollably for the girl he deemed too slow, too messy, and too irritating to ever notice. Is Jaxian's rhythm as fixed as his savage reputation, or will he let a girl be the one to finally break his setlist? What happens when the ultimate annoyance becomes the only music loud enough to drown out his own rules? Second Book of Vexera Series. Dual Point of View.

And a secret that refuses to stay buried." Alia was just fifteen when her world shattered-again.

What happens when silence screams louder than truth? Will this new family help her heal-or will her past follow her into the only home she has left? Hare Krishna ✨
