Dear Diary, College was great at first. Emphasis on ‘was’. At first, I was enjoying being free and and meeting new people who didn’t judge me the second they met me. But then I had to start wearing brown contacts because people were too fascinated with my eyes, and the attention became annoying. I felt…
Dear Ezra, I’m sorry. I know that isn’t enough to make you forgive me, and I don’t expect you to. Truthfully, I expect you to hate me. For as long as I could remember, you were the most logical one. Out of all your siblings, no one thought through things the way you did. Because…
Dear Diary, I don’t know if this is some sick joke or if the world isn’t as gray as I thought it was. But something is off. Yesterday, my parents dropped me off at the airport where I met the most handsome man the Goddess ever created. His skin was so smooth and unflawed. His…
Spencer, You were my one and only daughter. The things you taught me about life and fatherhood will forever be the best thing I’ve learned in life. And I know right now you probably hate me for what I’ve done. But I’m sure one day, you’ll understand, though I sincerely hope you won’t. The choices…
Dear Cassie, If you’re reading this, you have found one of the letters I left for you. I knew you would. You are such an intelligent and clever girl. You could do anything you set your mind to. I wrote this because I wanted to remind you of what a blessing you are. Many people…

Dear Cass, If you’re reading this, it means you found one of my hidden gifts. I must have written this letter a thousand times, and still, I couldn’t find the right words to say. The sad truth is, at some point we all must die, and when that day comes, we will be faced with…
Dear Diary, Yesterday I was so upset about being grounded that I forgot to tell you about what else happened after the party. Before my parents found out about all the secrets I’d been keeping from them- including the Forbidden Woods- I went with them to the scene to find out what happened and I…
Dear Cassandra, My sweet girl, I’m so sorry that you have to read this letter, but death is something inevitable, and I knew my time was coming to an end. There was so much I wanted to tell you, so much I wished to teach you. But as fate would have it, I didn’t have…
Dear Diary, I’m in trouble. Mom grounded me until I turn 18. Yes, I’ll be 18 by the end of summer, but all that means s that I’ grounded for the whole summer. Not like it matters anyway. Grounded or not, I still have no plans. Actually, that’s a lie, I planned on shopping for…
