this is a real nice story. PLEASE read it! i went through several sickening bouts of writers block to come up with a short novella. it's about a girl who's mom gets beat up and so she runs away with her best friend and then her friend...well, you'll see. it's rated pg. but i mean it's not like you're going to say, "mommy come sit with me to read this cuz it's pg and i need a parent". if you do then go away.
