Chosen Family Tree
It's the late 1920s, and ten-year-old Clara James is ecstatic when a pretty girl her age moves into the farm next door. Over the tumult of the next decade, she and her new friend will have to handle inconvenient feelings, unexpected personal revelations, and the many, many hardships of the Great Depression.
Clara's family's farm has always been a magical place, but will that be enough, with the real world so insistent on imposing its values and judgments? And if family is what's most important... who does that mean?
A ~34,000 word novella about becoming an adult, and the journey toward choosing the person you want to be and the people you want to love.

A lovely story, thank you so much for writing it! <3
Read the epub and didn’t have any issues with it (there were a couple of blank pages but that’s probably just my reader)
Fun fact the tree on the cover image is (probably) a Moreton Bay Fig! They’re native to Australia and have very fun roots, but while they were being cultivated in the US in the 1870s, I can’t find any reference to them outside California, making it unlikely that this is the Heart Tree. (Not that I’d know I’m from West Aus, just recognized the tree and thought others might find it interesting :3)
Ooh, that's neat! I had no idea, I just found a good free-use picture of a tree that I could use, haha.
