BB, GG, & ME
Romantic Coming of Age Comedy
Gem's a seventeen-year-old vlogger beginning her first year of college. Her parents want good grades. Her sorority wants perfection. Her one million followers want entertainment. It's a lot to juggle, and dropping the ball is her specialty.
​
At least it'll make a good video, right?
But the most complicated part? Finding herself stuck between a boy who's a bad decision and a girl who's too good for her. So what's a confused bisexual mess to do?
No, really. That's not a rhetorical question. She needs answers. Stat.

About this story
This serial was born out of my experience graduating from college into a global pandemic. I had too much time on my hands and no job prospects, so I sat down every day for six months of 2021 and wrote this story.
It's not about a pandemic though! It's a love letter to the nostalgia of college and remembering the real growing pains and hardships it entails along with many fictionalized dramatics for some good and proper escapism.
​
It's very much slice of life with silly and serious moments. One of the most light hearted stories I've ever written. It does discuss a lot of heavy topics though, such as alcoholism, cheating, body image issues, peer pressure, and other similar topics.
​
The story follows Gem through one year of college. The total word count is over 300,000, so although the story is written, I've been slowly editing it one episode at a time.

Watch my writing vlogs about this project!
While I was writing this project, I saw an opportunity to do active research about what it's like to be a youtuber, so I started filming writing vlogs. I learned a lot and had fun. I will continue making videos less frequently in the future to talk about specific projects, craft, and routine.
