Author Tori Puzzlewood got advice from one of her eighth-grade teachers. She told her to write down what was going on with her and learn how to express herself through writing. She suggested that Tori should write down what was going on with her. So as she entered high school, that's what Tori Puzzlewood did. Throughout the years of her high school life, Tori had dealt with many teenage things: depression, suicidal thoughts, sexuality, education, drama, romantic relationship, friendship, friendship ending, anxiety, toxic relationship, etc. She also witnessed some things that people around her were going through. Tori had to learn and understand everything she was going through and what life around her was like. No one ever really told her about the emotional part of high school that teenagers go through. All they talked about was the academic part. She learned life isn't easy. Things happen to you, people come and go in your life, and that's okay. Overall, she understood everybody goes through things. Everybody has a story, and this is hers.
