Experiment #6- Slam Poetry The first time I felt insecure I was 10. Passing remarks about how I should “go eat a burger” or “put some meat on my bones” caused me to question my self worth. 10 is too young to not feel anything but assurance in your self worth. Worth to myself that I am enough. Enough to overcome the passing, snarky remarks of people who take pleasure in your downfalls. I was 13 when I couldn’t eat. Starved myself for the compliments I was starved for. Classmates said I should “go eat a salad” or I had “too much meat on my bones.” I learned that while I may be starving, they were full. Full of hatred for themselves; only able to let it out on others. Only able to feel secure by making others insecure. I learned at 13 years old that people make you feel less than because they feel less than. Less than worthy, less than perfect, less than what others are. They’re hurting because of their own issues with self worth. But really what you’re worth to your sel

Beginning of My Book (very, very rough and needs a lot of work)

Prologue                                                 Amidst it all, she felt inexplicably with all she was and all she was supposed to be, that there was one thing that she could accredit her life to. The power of the past; the force in which drives the universe into full gear, and pushes people past the mundane into the future. Nostalgia is to be defined as, “a sentiment of longing or affection for the past with a personal association.” What if there was no association to a sentiment of longing? What explains how you can miss something in which you have never fully experienced? How do you try to associate with a time period that derived from before you were born? These seemed to be all the ambiguous questions she asked herself every time she looked at an old photograph or heard her grandmother's old Andy Williams record. Sometimes she wondered if there was a fluke in the universe and somehow she got dropped off a few decades late. But this is where she really began to ind

Query Experiment

Dear Ms. Epstein, I’m currently looking to publish my YA debut novel  I Remember When.  I think you might find an interest in this, because you said that you were looking for new voices in fiction. My book is reminiscent of the film  Midnight in Paris  as well as the book  The Mortal Instruments. My story is about a strong-willed girl with an old soul and affinity for the past named Evelyn. She has recently moved to a new town, and began working at an antique store called “I Remember When.” The owner of this store is an old Russian man with a temper named Aleksei. She is constantly being bothered by a frustratingly obnoxious man named Isaiah who is insistent on annoying Eve throughout her day.  One day, Eve goes into the closet of the store and finds a mysterious letter addressed to Aleksei from the 1960s from a man named Barnabas Moreau. This man is warning Alek to “stop messing with time” and to “keep the girl from harm.” Eve gets back to work until she goes to the back r
