We're All a Little Scared

Isla, an aspiring author with social anxiety, hopes to one day use her creative talents to top the bestseller charts. With a traumatic childhood behind her and a publishing contract signed for her debut novel, she's poised to take on the New York Times charts and achieve the dreams she's been working toward for years. When a catastrophic loss derails everything, grief and fear begin to rule her life, so she seeks out an online support group. She connects with an unlikely friend who understands what she's going through, even if he is the most ignorant human she's ever met. They couldn't be more opposite, but together, they work to get her book back on track via unconventional methods and a stroke of luck. However, Isla is struggling to process the guilt she feels surrounding her loss which jeopardizes everything, personal and professional. Her anxiety returns front and centre, leaving her unable to move forward, let alone find her own happily ever after. Will her and her new friend be able to lean on each other to heal from their losses? Can Isla rid herself of the guilt she's carrying squarely on her shoulders? Or will she always be too scared?
