Over the Horizon




Over the Horizon is a short story I wrote in December 2017 to February of 2018. It is a short story that was inspired by an image I had seen many years ago (drawn by Steven Stahlberg, as seen above), alongside meeting with a friend I had not seen for five years, and a visit to a therapist concerning my mental health and my feelings for this friend. Over the Horizon focuses on Robin, a girl who wakes up to find that her whole world has transformed overnight; after finding herself rescued by another youth, she discovers that he needs more help than him as she tries to figure out what has just happened.

Over the Horizon can be downloaded as a PDF right here. It's about 2750 words. All constructive criticism is welcome.
