I don’t know what it was. Maybe it was because of the glint in his eyes or the smile behind his lips, but I decided why not. There was something about him that made me give in. There was something about him that made me believe that he was someone like me. Maybe it was that crinkled band t-shirt or the way his eyes lazily scanned the diner, or maybe it was the way he ordered his coffee (black), but something in me was telling me to take him with me. Why not, this was what my little adventure was sort of for, right? To see the world, and people are part of the world. *** An escape. That’s all that Elva needs. She needs to drive cross-country around the U.S. and see all the things she has down on her list. She’s had it all figured out for four years, and has even come up with a beautiful way to end her trip; by killing herself. Elva’s empty and ready, but when an unexpected, reckless boy embarks on her adventure along with her, Elva isn't sure if things are going to go according to plan.

Love is strange. It exists in many forms and is one of the key components that makes humans happy, but there isn't a lot of understanding surrounding it. At least not the kind of understanding with which the average person identifies. Agnes is one of the few people that can accept all kinds of love. Despite her dated name, she is a woman in her late 20's dealing with the death of most of her family. She's now stuck in the middle of figuring out how to raise children that she never saw in her future and deciding what love means for her, when it has to exist within layer upon layer of complication. She let go of her boyfriend after almost a decade because their love wasn't meant to exist under the strain of children, only to find herself confronted with the overpowering connection of her old high school sweetheart. The same man she ran away from because their values hardly aligned when it came to how love should be expressed long term. Within the midst of learning how to raise children and balance her ever-building career, Agnes tries to recover from her mother's death, seek comfort without complicating her circumstance, and figure out why her mother would name her Agnes. Finding real comfort starts to feel impossible, as her most available options are her ex-boyfriend and her assistant. Completed! Rejected 6 times** "This one just isn't for us." By far the most plain rejection I have ever received and I can respect it. 1/22/2022 - 1K 9/28/2022 - 10K
