#mswl MG Iโd love to see a manuscript about the drama, the friendships, etc., that happen in an after-school aftercare program thatโs part of a middle school but not really. A Breakfast-Club-esque kind of group.

#MSWL YA friendship breakups. Those were always worse than romantic breakups. Whereโs my tearful BFF breaks?!
P.S. This movie gets me in the feels every time.

@NaomisLitPix I didn't tag it either, so hopefully won't clog up the search.Hope you find these stories though. I enjoy reading them. :)
Thank you! Me too. I want to see those friendships that just take 100% of you. May or may not end well, but while you're in it, it's all you care about. #MSWL lol
