It's still here!

Blue Moon

Game Day! Even though I'm super excited about it, I still can't help but worry about the state of my friendship with Sarah. Can we mend the fence? Or will Jen's return ruin everything?

Things begin to come together as they fall apart. I might still have a way back to Lee, but there is also the matter of telling Sarah the truth about the wishing stone. Nothing in a new girl's life can ever be simple.

Jen gives me a piece of her mind. The quandary about Penny's love life starts to be too much. And I make the decision to tell someone about the stone.

Who is this new guy in my life? What happened to Lee? Plus, I get to see the darker side of the wishing stone's power.

Lee and I finally get some much needed alone time. Am I ready to experience all that being a girl has to offer? Or will my good time end in disaster?

My first party as the increasingly popular Pee-Jay. I wanted to mingle, show off in my bikini, and maybe play some water polo with the handsome Lee Taylor. Instead, I discover things might not be as rosy as I'd originally thought.

My second day as Penelope continues. Turns out there are more users of the wishing stone than I knew. Including the one girl I really do not like. Plus, a big event is planned for after school.

My first day of school as Penny comes to a close. Now I have to deal with a bunch of new feelings as well as try to figure out what I'm going to do about my lack of cheerleading skills. Not to mention dealing with my budding relationship with the handsome football player.

My school day as Penelope continues as I find out what the wish did to Cindy and some others. I also discover some disturbing evidence that I might have become more than just a girl on the outside.

No good deed goes unpunished. When I agreed to help my best friend fix her life with the aid of a wishing stone, I knew there might be potential magical ramifications. I just never thought they'd include me trading my lightsaber and gaming dice for ballet shoes and pom-poms.

This is a true story. It doesn't matter if you believe me.

When I was small I met an angel.

I was standing in a field with tall grass, sunflowers and dandelions. I don’t know how I got there, and didn’t care. The sun warmed my chubby arms, and a gentle breeze blew the grass so that it tickled under my dress.

There’s another thing that was strange but wasn’t; I was wearing a dress - canary yellow, with thin straps over the shoulder. Not the kind of thing I could wear at home; not the kind of thing I was allowed.

When Andy finds a genuine Genie bottle he mistakes it as junk.
Giving it to his best friend, Kyle. A mistake of epic proportions, as Kyle knows exactly how to exploit a genie. Or does he?
This story won't end with just one instance of being screwed over.

John is a boy who is bullied a wants to be a hero when he is asked to clean out the attic he finds a magic genie and gets wish and wishes to be a hero but the outcome is not what he thought it would be....

I walked until the sun was high over my right shoulder. Then walked some more as it sank towards the horizon. Afternoon brought new problems as the glare of the sun made it hard to see the distant smoke.

Rachel's first day of Summer Midterms looks like she could be making a friend at last. Well as long as one of her relatives doesn't mess everything up at least.
