Life is incredibly temporary. You can never know, unchangeably, what will happen. Sure, we've all heard this countless times before, but for me, it's never seemed so real.

Unthinkable
She didn't mean for this to happen. Maybe it was the venomous thoughts that infiltrated her brain at that exact moment. Or maybe her sub-conscious self was preparing for this day forever. Whatever the reason may have been, it is now that she has to confront the underlying emotions she had pushed away for so long in ways she never thought she could. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ This is a teen fiction novel and something I've never done before, but I hope you all enjoy!

Glass Heart
Just a short story I wrote and am very proud of, TWs include mental illness, death of family, teen pregnancy (breif mentions), neglect, toxic home life, suicide, depression, self harm, running away, self-loathing, breaking mirrors and the recovery process of mental illness. List of help lines if needed: https://checkpointorg.com/global/ (btw there's so much symbolism it would make my English teacher proud and the writing style is also strange at best, good luck)Complete
