The School Rewind is a time-loop short story that follows two freshmen, Connor and Zing, as they fight to escape a single school day that keeps replaying.

Zing is the underdog dodging the Three Js bully squad; Connor seems to have it all together until an online rumor surfaces claiming you can rewind an entire day with one click.
I wrote and self-published this in November 2021 while I was in middle school. It was my first completed and published book. The following summer I returned to it and expanded it with a second chapter written from Connor's point of view, reframing similar events through a completely different lens.
Writing something at that age and actually finishing it mattered. Coming back to re-edit it later mattered more.
