“Eyra” by Alyssa Basemore

Submitted to Contest #113

“Hellooo? Earth to Aaliyah!” I jump, turning my attention back to my younger sister, Mia, who’s eating breakfast next to me. Mia is two years younger than me, but we’ve always been close. We actually shared a room for five years, too. My mom told us once that, when she was a baby and I was like, two or three when she would cry at night, I would crawl out of bed and comfort her. “Hm?” I mutter, shoving a piece of bacon in my mouth.

Author bio

Hi! I'm 19 years old, and I'm currently a sophomore studying tv & film. I'm clearly new to this site haha but I've been writing since I was little. I wrote my first "novel" at 7 years old (it was about a flower blooming; how cute), so this is a passion that's stayed with me for over ten years (so far!). I love writing drama, mostly, probably due to being labeled as overdramatic all my life (chaos tends to follow me, it's wild), but I've also been attempting sci-fi lately (I love The Hunger Games and Black Mirror). I hope that someone (or lots of people) finds my stories to be at least not COMPLETE trainwrecks, haha, but I'm mostly doing this to get back into my writing groove. It's been avoiding me for a while, so hopefully, I'll be full of inspiration soon enough! xoxo
