We fell apart,
Like fallen leaves in October,
Even though we were from the same branch,
Our foolish promises and words spoken at whims couldn't anchor us to the tree,
So we flew apart with low blow of wind,
Now that I think,
Perhaps it was foolish of us,
To give our hearts to someone unknown,
But now so deep in love,
I wonder if we can call it a mistake,
Even though it only lasted for a season,
Perhaps it could sum up our lives.

|7X FEATURED · SPOLIGHT STORY|
Saddened by her lonely life, a little girl named Victoria Christie uses her inventive imagination to write stories. Now that she's older, she must find a way to share her tale with the world. *** Victoria Christie never expected to be a writer, but everything changed in 4th grade when she annoyed her mother at a barber shop. She told Victoria to write in her school notebook, which sparked her daughter's life-long passion for writing. Now, many years later, Victoria is eager to share her story through an interactive novel that showcases how her writing has changed over time and what hardships she faced to keep her island of personality—especially after her brother's unfortunate death in 2021.
With the power of writing and her brother's legacy about her becoming a successful author, will Victoria's old stories spark the interest of an audience? Will they interact with her and tell her how her incomplete pieces should end, or will Victoria remain an undiscovered author?
This is an anthology of my old stories. Most are incomplete, so it's up to my audience to decide how they should end. This is the story of how I became Viktoria Fyodorova.
Let the cringe begin!
