Pages : 259

Book Description
A bullied 12-year-old boy must find a new normal after his mother has a stroke and his life is turned upside down. William Wyatt Orser, a socially awkward middle schooler, is a wordsmith who, much to his annoyance, acquired the ironically ungrammatical nickname of “Worser" so long ago that few people at school know to call him anything else. Worser grew up with his mom, a professor of rhetoric and an introvert just like him, in a comfortable routine that involved reading aloud in the evenings, criticizing the grammar of others, ignoring the shabby mess of their house, and suffering the bare minimum of social interactions with others. But recently all that has changed. His mom had a stroke that left her nonverbal, and his Aunt Iris has moved in with her cats, art projects, loud music, and even louder clothes. Home for Worser is no longer a refuge from the unsympathetic world at school that it has been all his life. Feeling lost, lonely, and overwhelmed, Worser searches for a new sanctuary and ends up finding the Literary Club--a group of kids from school who share his love of words and meet in a used bookstore– something he never dreamed existed outside of his home. Even more surprising to Worser is that the key to making friends is sharing the thing he holds dearest: his Masterwork, the epic word notebook that he has been adding entries to for years. But relationships can be precarious, and it is up to Worser to turn the page in his own story to make something that endures so that he is no longer seen as Worser and earns a new nickname, Worder.

Stick Bob

Languages : en
Pages : 58

Book Description
I wrote most of this book at 9 years old over my summer break, writing down whatever ideas sprung from my imagination. This resulted in a boy named Stick Bob navigating this bizarro stick figure world which is full of as many potentially wondrous experiences as there are dangerous ones. The structure was a journey of a kid who wants to find direction in pursuing his lost parents, but life’s journey is a winding road and much less straightforward than he could ever imagine. The people he will come across will give him all sorts of different experiences that are probably more than he bargained for, but he’ll have to navigate all the same. This story is a rough, chaotic, goofy snapshot of my childhood imagination. My writing was fueled by seeing how far I could take the types of stories I had fun writing in my free time as a kid, where I would just have an inspiration from these ongoing fantastical narratives in other books and comics I was reading in my school’s library. Publishing this after so long feels like a chapter of my own life completing. I hope to have fun writing even more stories in the future.
