Inside Michelle's mind her world has ended. Can Len fill that void? Who was it in her dream that made her feel that way?
        
  ‹‹Suddenly she stops dead in her tracks, face to face with a face she'll never forget. About eighteen, and half a head taller than her: those dark eyes - neither brown nor black - staring back at her with the same stunned look of recognition as she feels. She catches her breath with a step backwards, wanting to flee.
        
  "Hey, wait a minute. Don't go," he says quietly and involuntarily she waits for him to continue.››

TICK TOCK AWARDS REVIEW:
"Inside Michelle is a teen novella written originally in 1983 yet still expresses many of the inner rollercoasters teens go through in the technology age. A creative writing style, strong characters, and a fierce message prove the author as a true master of the writing craft. The improvement made should be working on the cover to make it stand out more and look aesthetically pleasing to potential readers."
        
This novella was originally written February 1983, and won first prize at Jamaica's Irving Burgie Literary Competition 10/August/1983, under the title 'Michelle: That's Me, Myself & I'.  Never published.

Ella is falling apart trying to live a "perfect" high school life. Then she meets Ren, who can see past her scars. Suddenly perfection isn't her only option. ***** Ella Volkov is a gifted music student, but she's depressed and starting to crack under the pressure of high school. Her overbearing father won't even let her choose what instrument she plays. Then she finds herself alone at a party with Ren, her best friend's crush. She'd always thought he was rude, but after that night he's all Ella can think about. Now she's trapped. If Ella dates Ren, it will ruin her friendship with Jenny. But if she stays true to Jenny, she's losing the one person who can see past her scars. It's up to Ella to decide if she will forge her own path, or stay in the "perfect" box designed for her...
