my kid has started to write stories and like, no lies, they’re funny as fuck
actual dialogue:
“to your battle stations, boys! it’s time to line up and see who’s tall enough for the roller coaster to hell!! some of us may not survive this, but the ones that do will get the ultimate reward.... paid.”
“here’s a penny for your thoughts, and a quarter to not tell me them”

“everyone knows those quiet girls. the ones who never say anything at school unless a teacher makes them. the ones who you see every day but don’t know what they sound like when they laugh. lindsey is not one of those girls, but the teacher wishes she was.”
“lindsey was always loud, especially when she was being kind. she didn’t smile at people to make them happier, she screamed all the reasons they shouldn’t be sad. it was hard not to listen.”
i can’t wait to read this book tbh
thanks for all the love!!
the story is part one in a series she’s gonna write called “the 23 islands” and it’s about a planet with 23 island like lands that have like..... nothing around them?? an unknown drop and total darkness surrounding them, and each island is like a different thing?? idk how to explain it but one island is like an ancient rainforest and one is snowy mountains and one is like still in the middle ages but another has flying cars??? and it’s about a group of friends trying to find a way off their island because it’s dangerous there, and hopefully to a more habitable one??? i guess they don’t find it tho because each book is a different island
These are all amazing.
