Manuscript Magazine was not a project we thought of lightly. We wanted to share our love of reading and work together as friends to launch a creative magazine that came to us as a “pretty cool idea” in the summer of 2018. You know the story. Nowehere had we seen anything like what we wanted to do - nothing like Manuscript Magazine 08 11 - and we knew this would be no small feat.

However, just like our beloved books, life also has plot twists. With both of us having full-time jobs, lives, families, etc. we now realize that at this time we just don’t have enough of ourselves to dedicate to Manuscript Magazine. We want to sincerely thank each and every person, reader, writer, family member, friend and more who has been so supportive of us and our creative magazine project throughout this whole process. While we are not a mainstream magazine that you see on the racks, we’ve now experienced just a mere sampling of the hard work and dedication it takes to produce something like this and we are humbled and appreciative for the opportunities that we have had under this masthead. At this time we are not closing down Manuscript Magazine or any of its social platforms, as we will continue to post and engage with you.

  • Impulse​ ​By Ellen Hopkins
    Impulse ​by Ellen Hopkins ​ COurtney Ginn Engl 112B Image Source Image Source ​ About the AUthor ★ Ellen Hopkins was born in Long Beach, California in 1955. She had her first publication at the age of 9 and has won almost every writing competition she entered throughout high school ★ She has 3 children of her own, 1 adopted son, and 3 grandchildren under her guardianship ○ Her children and their stories are often the real-life inspiration for her books ○ The novels ​Crank, Glass, ​and ​Fallout​ are inspired by her daughter and adopted son’s struggles with drug abuse ★ She has written 20 non-fiction works, 3 adult novels, and 13 best selling novels ○ These best selling novels, like ​Impulse​, are all written in verse http://www.ellenhopkins.com/ The Story at a Glance The poem follows the lives of three teens, Conner, Vanessa, and Tony and their experiences in a mental hospital for troubled teens. Each guilty of differing suicide attempts, they must struggle to find their own reasons to live, while also impacting the lives of each other. The story focuses on the individual trials the teens put themselves through, yet offers an overlapping story as they come together. Despite being in the hospital, none of the teens seem to want to get better as they continue a rapid decline of self harm and hatred. Conner strives to meet the high standards of his family at any cost. Vanessa struggles to see a life without her blade by her side as her only comfort. Tony is forced to overcome the loneliness and pain inflicted on him his entire life.

  • Crank Ellen Hopkins Reviewed By: Elisabeth Suarez, 14 Star Teen Book Reviewer of the Be the Star You Are! Charity
    Crank Ellen Hopkins Reviewed by: Elisabeth Suarez, 14 Star Teen Book Reviewer of the Be the Star You Are! Charity www.bethestaryouare.com Kristina was the straight-A, responsible daughter, who never got into any trouble. This all changes when she visits her distant father and meets a cute boy who introduces her to meth. At first, she feels ecstatic and like she is finally, truly living. Adam preys on her insecurities. Soon, her personality transforms into a sly, wild, and reckless alter-ego by the name of “Bree.” Bree allows Kristina to lie to her parents, manipulate others, and get with dangerous boys who can supply her some ice. Her life falls to pieces and she spirals. Kristina snorts it, injects it, and smokes it, putting meth into her body and way she can. Eventually, Bree even stoops to selling crank. That gets her into some trouble with a drug gang. She also begins smoking cigarettes and tries other drugs like ecstasy. This poetry book also describes other mature scenes such a rape, an unplanned pregnancy, and self-harm. Crank is loosely based on Ellen Hopkins’ own daughter. It is a good “this would never happen to me” story, as Kristina is the perfect daughter. Many teens can relate to Kristina, in that she wanted to be loved and popular. This book can give families of addicts a better understanding of things they experienced. This book is a good cautionary tale for high schoolers. I recommend it for ages fourteen and up, this way only mature readers would grasp how one bad decision can destroy your life.
