Description
Fierce Shorts Bundle, Vol. 1 brings you two creative non-fiction pieces about crushes, trying to fit in, finally breaking out and being comfortable with who you really are.
Prince Nameless
First love. A fall from social grace. Separately these things can be brutal. But together? Together they can make a girl forget who she really is and what makes her kick-ass.
In Prince Nameless, young adult author Patti Larsen takes us back to junior high, where her obsession over a boy and strong desire to fit in takes her far away from her true self and everything she loves.
As Patti recounts her true adolescent story she also interweaves in the fictional tale of a warrioress, who is also trying her best to capture the love of her Prince Nameless and ends up losing herself in the process.
With its perfect blend of fiction and non-fiction, Prince Nameless highlights Patti’s talents as a successful young adult author.
Partial proceeds goes to The Adventure Group.
Lipstick and Bangs
Colleen McKie brings readers back to her high school days in the early 90s with Lipstick and Bangs. It was a time of change in which she began to diverge from the interests of her lifelong friends to become an alt rock music girl with a bookish affinity for Stephen King.
Lipstick and Bangs is the true story of navigating identity at an age when everything is weighed against the pressures of friendships and boys.
In the crush or be crushed world of teen dating, can she be true to herself when she’s unsure of who that person really is?
Partial proceeds goes to AIDSPEI.
