When I went off to college, my mother reclaimed my room and gave it to my sister. She packed most of what I left behind into a closet and there it sat for nearly a decade. I recently cleaned this closet out and found a treasure trove of journals, stories, and writing assignments from middle school and high school I had forgotten about. I kept some of these with vague notions of seeing if I could salvage the poorly thought out writings of 12-year-old me, but probably mostly for the nostalgia I experienced when I read a paper I wrote in seventh grade titled “What Happens When Barbie Meets Godzilla”.
Some of the prose and short stories here will be an attempt at salvaging this old writing. Some of it will be stuff I’ve worked on more recently. It could be weird, serious, funny, or experimental. I have no idea. If there’s a title below that sounds interesting, click it.
