Veronica Nagorny

From seeds to sometimes sapphic stories. Herstory is all of our stories. Hers, his, theirs, ours, and mine. My heart spoke to me and I lent it a platform by way of this book and I hope these stories will find new homes in your hearts. I have to say, most of these are hers, though, as she fascinates me to no end, and I wanted her to have these. She spoke about feeling. She spoke about love. She spoke about the world and how it hurt so beautifully. She was quirky, and she was odd. And she spoke of her passions and worries and mediocre being and her thoughts of the girl as candy creams and the boy of her dreams. And most of all, she spoke about her. And who is she? She is me. She is you. She is us. And that's what this is. Her story. Our story. And now that I have him, my story is complete, and so is hers. So here it is. Veronica Nagorny's first book of short stories is here, and it's ready to be yours.

from the worst of my life to the best of my life in the span of two covers heartstrings transcribed into poetry words smithed for you my petrichor, my chord, my music, my muse

Hartley Mae Jones is an avid comic book fanatic and self-proclaimed geek girl living in a small town in coastal Massachusetts. She goes to a cyber high school and lives at home with her two moms and cat, living as normal a life as one can live in those slightly unusual circumstances. When she meets Devin Sanders, everything she's ever known is put into question, but that's just the beginning. Hartley and Devin spend the summer bonding over video games, comic books, and firefly captures, but also are searching for something they both hadn't known they'd been missing and end up finding it in the most unexpected of places: in each other. By chance, they find themselves in one another. And along the way, Hartley discovers her true self and realizes that she really does have a say in her own happiness, contrary to what she used to think. The Comicality of Chance deals with themes in romance, sexuality, self-discovery, anxiety, the teenage experience, and what it truly means to be honest to yourself.
