Nineteen Arly Carmack

Meet Cameron. His dad hates him for ruining his retirement. His mom overfeeds him and confiscates his jeans. His brother is a doctor with a perfect life. Cameron can't seem to shake off the memories of his ex-girlfriends, and now he's falling in love again. Join Cameron as he awkwardly navigates through the misadventures of post-adolescent life and love."I felt the hot tears streaming down my cheeks. Nothing was real. Nothing could be real. Everything I thought I was had been ripped out from inside of me...it felt like I was sinking in quicksand, but I got up and ran anyway. I ran down the broken, lifted sidewalks. I ran under the old trees with their long drooping branches. I ran in the moonlight and the streetlight... I kept running. I had never run before. But that night, somehow, I was running. My legs felt like they were weighed down by a hundred anchors, but something made me keep running."
