From the moment I'd entered Jude's life, he had managed mine. He'd ordered me, albeit with the illusion of gentleness at first, to do what he wanted. He'd molded me into the kind of woman that fit into his life. I had offered him my freedom in exchange for security, and then love. Freedom was a high price to pay, but one often finds that out too late.

Skinniness is Next to Goddessness? Lacey's Story

by Julia Keanini

Hate is a powerful word, especially when you're using it against your own reflection.


In fourteen-year-old Lacey Steele's world, being "skinny" equals no more caustic remarks comparing her to Shamu the Whale, meriting the attention of her ten-year crush aka the beautiful quarterback next door, and finally deserving her distant mother's love- pretty much goddess status. But diets, nor health food, nor exercise bring Lacey desired results and her future looks everlastingly chubby.

Unexpectedly, Lacey and her friend Ashley stumble on an easier method. Extreme calorie cutting may seem a little drastic, but of course it's better than ... an eating disorder. Unfortunately, the easy route has a price neither girl planned to pay, but it comes due anyway, for one of them.

A story of hope and eventual acceptance, Skinniness is Next to Goddessness? Lacey's Story, takes a brighter approach to an age old tale.
