Man, this time in my life sucks. I'm exhausted from 2½ years of trying to find a full-time job with zero success, and it's showing in my posting frequency here.
Here's a story I wrote in 7th grade. At the time, I was interested in Greek mythology, and I especially like Hermes because of his portrayal in the Disney film Hercules. I wish I could still channel this level of unhinged lack of care for story conventions. Also, as usual, Easter eggs are hidden in the story. A girl I hated at school was named Heather.
