Because I Believe in Magic - Thoughts and Dreams of a Teen Writer

I am Em, and I write.
My fingers tapping against the keyboard are thunder and rain. The pencil scraping against the paper is the screech of a dragon. Sentences create sparks, and paragraphs create worlds. It's amazing how words, no matter how small or insignificant alone, can make explosions happen when they are placed in the right order. How words can make us feel so strongly is a mystery for most people. I call it magic. We all have magic, and this is how I use mine. The fun thing about magic is that the more you use, the more you have.
Welcome into a teen writers brain. See my struggles, my happiest moments, my dreams, my passions, my hopes, my thoughts. Read about me slowly going insane.

erased - Frouse AU
he woke up here. no memories, no awareness, unsure of the day, time, city, country he was in. he had to follow rules. if he didn't, he would hurt. physically, emotionally, mentally. an echoing voice telling him he didn't matter, he had nothing out there. no family, no friends. did he even have friends? did he have a family? he didn't know. a familiar knock on the door. hurried motions to slip his blindfold on and press his back against the wall. the screech of the metal. a thud? "Pezzy?" ⚠️⚠️ no irl shipping, that's why all my stories involve some kind of magic/supernatural creature because there's no way it can happen irl. Mentions of violence, darkish thoughts, ptsd ⚠️⚠️Complete

Catastrophically Carla (Lesbian Story)
Ages 14+ (lesbian concepts and some profanity) This is not your everyday love story, okay? It's not a chick flick either. The events and themes within my pages have meaning, depth, truth-and most of all, reality. You are about to be taken on an adventure about a girl who's life is not like everybody else's. I look like a normal teen girl, I mean, I have hair and two eyes and two hands and feet like everybody else, but I couldn't feel more different. I have two moms, yes. Let's just get that out there before you start reading and close my diary like everyone in my life has shut me out of theirs. All I want is a normal life with normal friends who don't judge me because of my home situation. I don't even remember the last time I went on a sleepover or called somebody my age. I don't mean to be a downer, because it does get better. Life gets better. Struggles are only temporary, I know that now. And by my last words reach your eyes, I've come a long way, and have grown to see potential in myself. I'm sharing this with you because I want to make a difference. I know now that I'm not the only one in the world that feels alone. I've been there, done that, and there's more loneliness to come, but for now, I feel more prepared for it. I know how it feels to sit by yourself at lunch every day and how it feels to watch others go to prom with dates and feel like shit because you don't think you'd even have any friends to go with. Please ready my diary. I am much older now, and much more wiser, and I can't wait for you to realize the potential in yourself, too.Complete
