"Are you writing in your diary?" they always ask, either scoffing or in honest curiousity. My answer has always been the same. "No." Writing diary entries feels weird for me, forced even. Yet this collection - even though it is no diary - resembles one in many ways. I found a way to express myself, my emotions and my creativity, and I'm finally willing to share.

»My treehouse is gone« ,the child says to its mother. »It isn't gone, it just looks different«, she replies. »But it is missing my cars and my dolls and my lollies, my red shoelaces, and my cassette recorder.« For the child, it all seemed to be gone. »Whenever you want to feel like you did when being in that treehouse again, you just need to close your eyes and climb up the old treehouse«. Diary of 2007 is a collection of poems that reflect upon the unique challenges of growing up in the halfway digital age, imposing a journey marked by great emotions, the transition from child to adult, self-discovery, and absolute uncertainty. Blending personal experiences of loss, love, disappointment and loneliness with a philosophical outlook that resonates with the struggles and dreams of Generation Z, Ally Lancaster grasps the core of teenage life and adolescence.

In a world where words are more than just fleeting whispers, tales we tell one another, or stories we observe in hope of having a fairytale-like life, this series of introspective and poignant stories explores the hidden emotions and inner struggles that many face but rarely express. Just Words is not merely about the words themselves but about the raw and unfiltered experiences. They represent experiences that bind us, haunt us, and sometimes set us free in various ways with a voice that is both haunting and reflective of our broken parts we may carry in our hearts. In our world, each of our stories and every word carries weight while resonating with echoes of our untold truths. Just words are never Just Words.

In our society it is forbidden to "love". It was some kind of unnecessary feeling that humans felt towards someone they really "liked". They got into "relationships" and sometimes even "married" each other. Our schools teach us why "love" is unnecessary and doesn't contribute to a fulfilling life. We live to make a carrier. To be successful. And to do that, you should not rely on anyone, but focus on yourself to optimize your future. Now all of us have a meaning in life, a path we want to follow, not caring about these irrelevant emotions that keep us from growing, from becoming the best version of ourselves.

Wer erinnert sich an die Dinge, die zu unwichtig scheinen, um sich an sie zu erinnern? Jeder Mensch erlebt jeden einzelnen Tag unterschiedlich. Jede Stunde passieren wunderschöne, aber auch schreckliche Dinge für 8 Milliarden Individuen. Jede Minute werden wichtige, oder banale Entscheidungen getroffen. Manches scheint größer zu sein als es tatsächlich ist, oder umgekehrt. Sechs Schüler aus dem englischen IB Profil einer Hamburger Schule setzen sich in diesen Anthologien mit dem Thema: Die kleinen Dinge im Leben auf Deutsch und Englisch auseinander. Die Sammlung aus Kurzgeschichten und Gedichten regt dazu an, darüber nachzudenken, was wir vielleicht alles verpassen, wenn wir uns nicht auf eben diese kleinen Dinge fokussieren, die meist direkt vor uns liegen. Denn auch kleine Geschichten können eine große Wirkung haben.
