As Casey Pierce enters her junior year of high school, she decides to enter a writing competition that could earn her a full scholarship to whichever school she chooses. Too bad she has no idea what she wants to do with her life, no clue which school she wants to go to, or what she's going to write about. However, as Casey writes her - probably not - award-winning story, she'll learn some things about herself - and the people she loves most. INCOMPLETE ( but I'm working on it )

In the day-to-day trenches of high school, it is almost the default-setting to believe we are the main character of our own coming-of-age story. This is not wrong. It's just ours isn't the only story there is. The jocks, the nerds, the cheerleaders, the losers, the stoners, the fangirls, the skaters. Everyone's the realest most important person in existence, all of them, at the same time, first-person narrators to their own stories, stumbling into each other's plot lines, defying the status-quo, catalysts to ups and downs. A deconstruction of all the high school tropes and cliches written over the years, a deep-dive into the psyche of students trying to finish high school while going through irrevocable self-discovery, the most improbable of connections, and the insufferable pains of growing up.
