Sofia Marchetti is not a fan. When her friend drags her to a concert in Milan, she barely knows his songs. She's not there for him. She's not there to be noticed. And yet, Jamie notices her. In a crowd of thousands, he sees only her. Months later they meet again in London - but Sofia doesn't recognize him. She knows nothing about his life of spotlights and loneliness. And Jamie decides to keep it that way. Because being seen by someone who doesn't know who you are is the most terrifying - and most beautiful - thing in the world.

This poem is for my best friend Natalie, she has been getting bullied and body shamed her whole life, because god created her bigger than the rest. In my opinion i think she looks amazing, and that she should block out what everyone has to say.

I was just wondering...

This story is based on a true story, my life with anorexia and bulimia. If you have this disease, don't think you're alone, because you're not. You don't need this, nobody does. They are never gone, but you can live it with it and the most important thing, being happy and have support, love and admiration, or not? 🖤.

Savannah, a high school student with Asperger's, enters her school's art contest against her rival, a bratty third-grader (Suzy) who, along with her cousin (Karen), torments her. Along the way, with help from her best friend Tony, Savannah makes new friends, learns how to navigate the waters of social situations, and develops a positive body image. Her new friends, and her mentors, help her to "see all the people".

In a school where competition is everything, only the gifted ones survive. The weak? They die. [On going]

Feeling down about your body? Or maybe your hair, smile, body? This is a safe place for anyone who's ever felt like this.

"No, Seriously!" is an [unofficial] fiction initiative that seeks to provide a forum for those struggling with eating disorders, suicidal thoughts, bullying, depression, or self-harm, and to allow the work of authors who are passionate and focused on these topics to shine within the Wattpad community. Inspired by the realization that far too often in fiction, and in the real world, such life-changing struggling are not taken seriously, this initiative hopes to give voice to the very real issues teens face today. What this will include: Opportunities for Young Adult/New Adult authors to showcase their novels, short stories, poetry, and essays, and to give deeper explanations as to the inspiration behind them. Contests and giveaways for aspiring writers seeking an outlet for the negativity they are going through. Blog installments, posted chapter by chapter, featuring posts that deal with topics concerning self-love, positive outlook, self-confidence, battling depression, overcoming bullies, and more. The type of fiction "No, Seriously!" features will be... Accessible. Respectful. International. Meaningful. Join the #NoSeriously initiative today - and start by taking these struggles, and the people who face them, seriously. [Cover thanks to the talented @5ifthproject.]

I write too much to keep track of it. Here are some poems ranging from deeply romantic to complete nonsense.

"Have you ever been in your life, like just moving through as always, then there's this record scratch?" Cam is just doing his usual Saturday thing, hockey practise with the guys, community hours for credits, when IT happens. The record scratch. He's jolted out of hot jock mode when he hears her singing in the kitchen where they are making food for a homeless shelter. Then he sees her dance, and all bets are off. The problem? She's Mirabelle, the girl who pounds Pringles more than Pilates and used to have a pet rock collection. In the time it takes for them to make three meals, Cam gets more than enough food for thought to turn the record scratch into a love song. But Belle ("not Mirabelle, that's my grandmother's name") Sanders isn't the usual simpering high school girl won over by a pretty face. Even worse, Cam's usual swag goes MIA just when he needs that sucker. What's a hot jock to do? Find out in this short story that's a satisfying bite of high school love with hilarious banter, a little eat, pray love, and a whole lotta swoon.
