Welcome to My Life

Twelve-year-old Victoria thought changing schools would be the hardest part of her year. Moving away from everything familiar was tough enough for someone who sits in the same spot on the bus every day and panics at family gatherings. But when she catches the eye of her crush, her world transforms in ways she never expected.

For a moment, life seems perfect. But middle school can turn on a dime. As Victoria navigates first love, shifting friendships, and mounting anxiety, her carefully ordered world begins to unravel. When darkness threatens to overwhelm her, she’ll need to find strength she never knew she had – and learn that sometimes the bravest thing you can do is ask for help.

A debut novella based on a true story about anxiety, friendship, first love, and finding your voice when it feels like the whole world has gone quiet.
