< A Boy's Fable (My Social Anxiety, Told in a Tale)
that was really fun to read. i hope it was fun to write, too.
i'd be interested in hearing more about what happens to the nameless child as they try to interact with humanity. i think i'm still writing my equivalent tale of social anxiety.
That child is me. This story is a metaphor of my social anxiety, and how much of it was fueled by peer abuse, adult neglect, and lying about me.
