An Author's Note

I really wanted to explore the prospect of presenting what first appears as a Marty-Stu and deconstruct them into being more humanly flawed than what was superficially thought of with this piece. I hope to do this in a manner that tugs on my audience's heartstrings and provokes sociological mindfulness about the youth of a nation that is failing them in our school systems. The tale of Jonathan Crane's bullying is one that really showcases that teenagers are in fact terrible more often than we like to believe.

Do you like music? Me too. Want to know what I listened to for writing this?
