Even though I'm not really where I want to be, I'm still on track. This year is the first time I've written in first person since junior high school, and I'm finding it to be both easier and more difficult.

When she was thirteen, the relativistic drive in her father's starship BSOD'd in the middle of a jump, stranding them outside of time and space for a while. Her memoir details her trying to fit in with a galaxy that went on without her, dealing with the destruction of her home planet, and coming to terms with her animosity toward the beings responsible for most of the life in the galaxy.
