Bandgeek Stories

Eve Morley is FED UP with her neighbours. If only they would stop pestering her, she could focus on practicing her trumpet. Because if there's one thing Eve needs, it's the music scholarship to Clarington University. The only problem? Jack Anderson from next door wants it as bad as she does. And he will stop at NOTHING to ruin her dream... Jack Anderson is sick and tired of Perfect Eve Morley. How can she be an honours student, star athlete AND brilliant musician at the same time? The only time he feels superior is with his violin at his cheek, so obviously the scholarship for Clarington is his and his alone. So why won't Eve quit trying? Two families, two teenagers, one rivalry. Will Jack and Eve ever be happy? Will they learn to tolerate each other? Will they find love? Or will 24 Lillian Lane always be divided... This is an idea I thought of back in grade 8, reading Romeo and Juliet. It's a variation on Shakespeare's classic story, set in modern times. (Well, no one dies...)

High school in the early 90s: it was before cell phones and social media, but the problems were the same. How do you get the guy you're interested in to notice you? What happens if you fall in love with your best friend? Why does physics class keep factoring into your love life? This novella is loosely based on my own high school experiences... but sort of an alternate version of them. You can only make one set of choices in life, so it's fun to explore what could have been - but wasn't - in fiction. Also, set in 1991-92, this is kind of a period piece now! In some ways it's a love letter to the teen books I read back in the 80s and 90s, in particular those by Ellen Conford and Paula Danzinger. I hope you enjoy it. This story was featured on Wattpad in 2016.

I know this is something new, but I am going to try to write a book of just random crap about marching band. The chapters will just be short quotes or advice I came up with unless I specify that I got it off the internet.

What happens when the schools biggest player talks with a band geek

This is a story about my band friends! Names are changed including my own. Please enjoy!

This is really just a random book of what band really means to the members. Some will be funny, some will be sad, some will be more true than anything in the world.

The flutes and french horns have joined forces against the trumpets. The tuba slept with a saxophone. Tenor saxophone quit. The bassoon is drinking. The percussion have broken the piano, much to the bassoons dismay. It's just another average year as a Cooperstown High School Band student. Cooperstown has never been beautiful. And I doubt it ever will be. Nothing about it really is. There's the Western Side, where all of the rich people live in their big houses and large yards and apple trees. There's the Slums, where all of the people wrecked by poverty and drugs live in their rundown apartments and clubs. There's downtown, where all of the people doing okay live, around St. Judas River and Jesus Street, and no one knows who named those two but they clearly didn't read the Bible. There's the schools. Cooperstown Elementary School, Middle School, and High School. The only ones we need to hear about are the ones in the Cooperstown High School Band. The ones with problems. The ones with issues. The ones who don't really think this world, in the town Cooperstown could even have the possibility to be beautiful. But then they find out that Cooperstown is losing funding, and the band will be cut out entirely. The Bassoon will have to become sober and give up owning cigarettes. The famed Trumpets and French Horn/Flute rivalry will have to come to an end. (But only with some Romeo and Juliet crap.) The Tuba and a Saxophone will have to work out the issues that come with sleeping together. The Seniors have exams. Dallas will have to get over his grief. Brianna must realize that what she wants is okay. Benny has unrequited love. Brooklyn has confusing love. All of them have issues. All of them have problems. All of them have trouble seeing the world as a beautiful place. But this year will change that. Because this year they have to band together to save the band. But t I refuse the lie--only like fifteen kids are actually doing anything.

Here's your typical teenage story. It includes: ~ a hot jock ~ a nerd ~ a band geek ~ a badass rebel ~ a pretty plastic girl -and- ~ a kid everyone makes up stories about But this story is different. You'll have to read it to find out why.

It seems unfair to have your destiny written even before you are born. Follow Hodrien as he puts his to the table and works on it through his high school life.

Angel Lee is an only child that's addicted to music. All she wears is band tees and gets offended when someone talks shit about her bands. But that's not the point. The point is that there's this new guy at school and he won't leave poor Angel alone. So, what does she do? Well... Wouldn't you like to know?

This is written by a person who is very scared to write. A person who cannot stay on topic if their life depended on it. A person whose thoughts are jumbled and tangled. A no one.

Another random book by yours truly. [gorgeous cover by @kidnaps!]

Geeks, nerds, loners, the unpopular ones. Rarely is their side of the story told. The romantics of the other half has never been brought to the limelight. So I observed, and wrote. I wanted people to know about these unsung love stories. And I wanted them to be real. But this is just the fictional thoughts of one girl. A girl in blue converses.

Louis receives a message from a stranger.
