sallymcvegas's "Novels/Memoirs whose Thematic Cousins I Will Write Someday"

Add to my lists | Print this list

One of these years I am going to write my very own novel about either a girl or boy who comes of age at private school/boarding school/college, or about an outsider who becomes involved with the nefarious deeds of a bunch of insiders at school/college, or about a gifted/precocious girl who lives through a very curious ordeal that occurred as a result of a bunch of grownups’ misbehavior. Or I’ll write my very own memoir about how I became a productive member of society despite my substance abuse/addiction and/or psychological disorder/trauma. Or all of the above.
