In Loving Memory of My Brother
|5X FEATURED · SPOTLIGHT STORY| Learning to cope with death is one of the most challenging obstacles any of us has to face, especially if that death is unexpected. When your whole world has changed, what do you do to overcome grief and keep your loved one's memory alive? *** I never knew how much trauma could affect a person until after my older brother died unexpectedly on August 17th, 2021. I came out of the experience as not the Victoria I was used to, but the Victoria who now had a massive hole in her heart. I come from a long line of fighters. My family and I pulled off different strategies to help us move on from such a devastating death, strategies that I am going to share in this book. Sometimes, the best way to overcome grief is to write about it. After all, writing is an escape to a different world where I still have my Green Guardian. These pieces and pictures I'm going to share with you are not meant to depress anybody, but to illustrate just how wonderful a person Matthew was. His story is sad, but it's a story of hope. His legacy remains in my heart today, and I want to share it because I know I'm not the only person who has lost somebody so unexpectedly. *** Ovid (on when his brother died): "iamque decem vitae frater geminaverat annos, cum perit, et coepi parte carere mei." ("And he had just doubled ten years of his life when he died, and with him, a part of me.") ⭐ Featured on @StoriesUndiscovered || Change in Reality Reading List. ⭐ Featured on @nonfiction || Personal Struggles, Essays, and Coping Reading Lists. ⭐ Featured on @nonfiction || Our #NonFicSpotlight (May Spotlight) Reading List. ⭐ Featured on @nonfiction || Past Spotlights Reading List. ⭐ Featured on @nonfiction || Memoir Reading List.Complete

[COMPLETED] DISCLAIMER I wrote this book when I was a kid and it was my first time writing one so please excuse the grammatical errors and if it's not well written This book is still up because it's a comfort book to some but I wanted to put a disclaimer out there about the writing since I know it's not perfect. ____________________________________________ "You're worth more than a fucking deal, Amara." ____________________________________________ It all started with a secret deal. A deal that should have meant nothing yet meant everything. Xavier Hernandez, the Italian mafia Don. The title was given to him at a young age being only 16 and now he's carrying the weight of leading a mafia at the age of 20. He's a man who is feared by many and is known for being merciless, ruthless, strong and powerful. He would shoot you between the eyes if you dared to look at him the wrong way. His cold hearted soul has never met the warm touch of another, has never experienced the warm feeling known as love. Amara Sánchez, the Spanish mafia princess. A woman who is sarcastic yet stubborn at times. She is the youngest out of her family being the age of 18 and has a lot of responsibility in her hands as her father is the Spanish mafia Don. She is known to be kind hearted, considerate and a goddess . Her warm heart has yet to touch ones cold heart that seeks the feeling of love. Both complete opposites. What happens when opposites attract? Will it end up in heartbreak or will it lead to a new found love? What happens when the past reveals itself? What happens when the truth is revealed? What will happen when promises are broken? ____________________________________________ //tw please read book with caution// •contains sexual content• started: 14/08/21 finished: 12/12/21 #1 trauma: 29/11/21 #2 arranged marriage: 14/12/21 #3 Italian: 3/12/21 #2 badboy: 11/12/21 #3 enemiestolovers: 14/12/21 #2 alliance: 30/5/25 #4 Spanish: 23/8/25Complete

A Rock in the River
I've always asked what there was to live for after I died. My answer was to exist, to try to reach the unfathomable glory of the god whose dark, dripping smile loomed over us. Every waking moment in a life with no rest was filled with prayer- a prayer for something to make me human again. And then you gave her to me. You gave her to us. And I don't think we could let her go if we tried. -An empathetic attempt to comprehend and console Sammy Lawrence and other residents of the studio. (This is the eighth and last book in the Hymns of Struggle series. The mature rating is for language, some violence, and heavy existential dread. The cover art is by Startistdoodles on Tumblr.)Complete

Being alone? Check. Being afraid? Check. Being abused? Check times 3. Honestly, my life wasn't this bad before, not until I ended in foster care... SIKE! My life was always bad. From the moment I was born, I lived with an abusive father who blamed me for my mother's death, and even I couldn't disagree with him. Here are a few questions I am constantly asked: 'Do I do well in school?' No, are you kidding me? The only subject I'm good at is Visual Arts. 'Do I have a kind and caring family?' No, I don't think I do. 'Do I have anyone who cares about me?' No, I'm a loner and socially awkward. 'Do I have privileges?' No, if you haven't understood the message yet, I live in an abusive household. Now, you might ask if there are any questions the answer is yes. I'll give you some. 'Do I want to die?' Yes, I sometimes do. 'Do I feel alone in this world?' Yes, always. 'Do I get a beating every day?' Yes. *** This is Amara Williams, a 13 year-old with average grades and no friends.

Would you like to listen to Tissues story? You might want to understand how he feels being in the hospital for most of highschool year, being isolated from people who he wants to call friends, but can't. They don't know him - due to how absent he is, everyone has basically forgotten that he goes here, and gets brushed off like a speck of dust on the kitchen counter. You'd feel like a burden. Highschool is different for everyone. Come along, and listen to the perspectives of each character - take a look inside their minds, and see what they go through. You might just discover things that nobody else knows - or not. It's up to you to continue along. TW: VIOLENCE VULGAR LANGUAGE VOMIT SUICIDAL REFERENCES/MENTIONS GORE (occasional..)
