Hello‪?‬

Tricia: A girl struggling to find her way after her beloved grandma's death.


Emerson: A guy who lives his life to fulfill promises, real and hypothetical.


Angie: A girl with secrets she can only express through poetry.


Brenda: An actress and screenplay writer afraid to confront her past.


Brian: A potter who sets aside his life for Tricia, to the detriment of both.


Linked and transformed by one phone call, Hello? weaves together these five Wisconsin teens' stories into a compelling narrative of friendship and family, loss and love, heartbreak and healing, serendipity, and ultimately hope.


Told from all five viewpoints: narration (Tricia), narration (Emerson), free verse poetry (Angie), screenplay format (Brenda), narration and drawings (Brian).
