      Writing by 826CHI's Teen Writers Studio

      2023 © All the Beauty It Brings

      This book is a work of both fiction and nonfiction. Names, characters, places, and incidents are either the products of the authors’ imaginations, are used fictitiously, or are totally realistic representations of these students’ experiences. Any resemblance to actual events or locales or persons, living or dead, is entirely coincidental. Or incidental. Or an instance of synchronicity, if you’re looking for it.
