Fran is a typical teenager. She has a loving family, a great best friend and she is doing really well in her school swimming team. But she also has a lot on her mind. Stuff that she doesn't talk to anyone about, especially her family.During an evening out with her friends, Fran starts to feel unwell and needs to get home - now! And when the same thing happens at school and she starts to feel faint and her heartbeat gets out of control, Fran knows this is something she's never experienced before - but what is it? And why has it started now, just as her mum is hoping to return home?A visit to the doctor may help, but maybe Fran can find other ways of helping herself.Trigger warning: themes of suicide and self-harm included.

Portraying an eclectic mixture of moods, emotions, thoughts and stories, this eclectic collection of work is inspired by the surreal and nature, and draws on the author's experience of spinal arthritis, anxiety and depression. These conflicting and sometimes disabling issues inform the narrative of the collection, expressed through free verse, paragraph poetry, storytelling and the paintbrush.
