    Members of 12-Step Programs work the 12 steps, which involves admitting that we don’t have all the power, recognizing someone or something can help us, examining past errors, making amends for these errors, learning to live a new life with a new code of behavior, and importantly, helping others with the same afflictions. But there’s a lot of flawed information- and some mockery- of a movement that’s 80 years old. If they want to listen, great. You have an opportunity to advocate mental health…

    This was horrible. A class about monster tracking...great. I pull up on my black silk gloves they were a part of my uniform, along with a black and red plaid skirt, black saddle shoes, white knee high socks, and a white sweater. I hated it, but I had no choice, nobody can know how different I am. “Right class, what do you do when you see a monster,” asked Mrs. Shard in an annoying high-pitched voice that made my ears bleed.

I searched through the trunk and found the first aid kit. I popped open the kit and grabbed the alcohol. There was a small wrap that I used to keep the blood in. One of the guys in our wagon train came to help and told me to keep the kids calm. Not long after he told me that it was just a scratch from an open nail in…

I found their explanation very compelling, unless it’s proven otherwise I must agree. Of course, agreeing makes me lose hope in human actions, but their explanation makes sense. For example,…

    Kara and her brother stood, staring at the place the alarm clock had taken them. The land was a deep russet, and had fire almost everywhere. “Kara… Isn’t that what you have on your arm?” Jayden was pointing at a wall, the symbol pulsing and shining. She felt a strange attachment. She belonged here. She had to go towards it. Step, step, step, then, crash! A wall had shut behind her, separating her from her brother. “Jayden?” She went on the tip of her toes, looking for some sign of his curly…
