Caroline Rogers lost her mum two years ago and her father was sent to jail when she was just seven. She has spent the last two years with her aunt and uncle, Claire and Richard. They have decided to move across Canada to a small town called Merrickville near Ottawa.
She had previously gotten into fights and skipped class. A lot.
She needs to leave her bad habits behind in Calgary.
She made new friends, but that didn't end well.
The one thing that helps her after her friendship falls apart is a record store and a kind soul.
What will happen?
Find out in my book!
Later,
Gabe
UPDATE:
Hey there, I'm probably rewriting The Records That Saved The New Me and changing quite a bit, but I'll keep this version up for now. (I'm still going to finish this one because I hate it when people disappear and never finish a book.) Then I'll be posting an edited, finished version as another book, but I'll keep some of the same elements.
I didn't really have a vision when I started writing it, but now I have a better idea of what to write for it. I'll actually plan it out this time. Sorry for being so indecisive and taking forever to update.
I've changed a lot as a person and a writer since I started writing on here.
I appreciate you.
Thanks.
Gabe.
P.S. DON'T STEAL MY IDEA. IF YOU THINK I STOLE YOUR IDEA, I DON'T KNOW ABOUT IT. THANKS.

********************************************** I stand up, not being able to handle this, "You're telling me, we're moving to some hick town in the middle of hell, two months into my senior year of high school?" My voice getting louder, "What kind of nightmare is this? You're joking right?" I stop pacing and turn to my parents. "This is all a joke. Mom would never leave this," I motion around me, "New York, none the less." Mom nods, "We're moving to Eatonton, Georgia and that's final." ********************************************** Trade in your Coach purse for some Mossy Oak, Your BMW for a pickup truck, Your high heels for some cowgirl boots and Your high class man for a good 'ol country boy.

Heavy Heart
After my overtime was done I clocked out and went to my locker. I changed out of my work coat and disposed of my hair net. As I left the ladies locker room there was a group of men outside in the lobby of the employee entrance. At the centre of it were my two least favorite co-workers; Brock Hansen and Zack Trulley. They had been in school with me from elementary all the way through grade twelve. We had been in the same class. My entire life, they had made fun of me because I was a bigger girl. Since we were all adults, you would think that childish behavior would be behind us; it wasn't. Brock and Zack both continued to call me the various pet names they had for me like 'the walrus' or 'the blob'. When I was a teenager it used to send me to the bathroom in tears, it would send me over the edge and cause me to want to hurt myself. Since I was older, I didn't let it get to me as much as I used to. I decided I wasn't going to let it tear me down, I was better then they were. I wasn't going to allow bullies to hurt me. As I passed by the group of men, Brock shouted at me, "Hey Walrus, where are you going? Back to the sea?" I rolled my eyes and ignored him. I found that not responding was the best way to deal with them. If I acknowledged their behaviour it only encouraged it. I just kept walking with my head held up high. I didn't care what they thought of me. I was a bigger girl and I wasn't going to allow their words to tear me down.Complete

The girl from New York
Completed✔️ Disclaimer: I wrote this when I was 15 so it is a bit cliché, and many mistakes in the story:) All Brooklyn's life, she's been more of a boy than a girl. She's only ever lived with her single dad and her three older brothers, which means she was bound to grow up more like them. So, when she moved all the way from New York to Tennessee, it wasn't much of a surprise until she met Alex, the one of many popular boys at the high school. Until she realized that Alex decided to make her life a living hell. Well, that's what Brooklyn thought, at least... ___ "He leaned in and put a hand behind my head to kiss me, leaving me frozen and speechless. Almost instinctively, after a moment of processing, I stood on my tippy toes and replaced my fingers in his hair, my other hand on his neck. Butterflies exploded in my stomach, replacing my hunger for food, as he pressed me against a vacant wall. Without a word, he lifted me up while my legs wrapped around his waist, leaning in closer to him, even after there was no more space to fill."
