Young Adult

Identity Crisis - Pt 9
This is chapter 9 of a story that started for me with my entry into the vocal challenge for identity. The chapter spoke to me well enough that I continued. It is the story of the emotional drama and struggles surrounding a young man who at age 16 discovers he was adopted under some rather unusual circumstances. It is a story of pain, bonding, struggle and the challenges of coming to terms with discovering that your very core identity is a lie. Below are the links to parts 1 through 8. To get to parts 3 through 8 just change the end number of the link to the appropriate number.

I Met My Childhood
Gather 'round, friends, for I've got a tale that feels straight out of a dream—a dream where I met my childhood itself. In this slumbering reverie, I found myself strolling down the lanes of a town that seemed plucked from the pages of a storybook. The sun painted the cobblestones with golden hues, and laughter danced in the air like a playful breeze.

The Trappist Adventure-Chapter 2
We both stared at the overhead skies for what seemed like hours, but was probably less. As a kid, I imagined being an astronomer or an astronaut. I would spend hours watching the heavens, star gazing, and dreaming of being out there amongst the planets. Now, I had nothing to say or share with the doctor.

The girl. Content Warning.
In the heart of the ancient forest, where sunlight filtered through a dense canopy of emerald leaves, a lone girl ventured into the unknown.
