The Unspoiling Synopsis:
"Setbacks" is a sequel I wrote to Perks of Being a Wallflower written by Stephen Chbosky that takes place in Charlie's junior year of high school. The story begins with Charlie writing letters to his "friend" once again about a deal which a fellow honors student named George makes with him, selling narcotics to fellow students. Charlie, being experienced in selling narcotics, begins to create his own gang and soon takes control of not only the clubs he helped established, but also the gangs he created.
The creation of it would create an ordeal of violence among the students of Charlie's school as the the gang becomes more and more powerful. Trivial tribulations escalate as Charlie becomes head of a small, narcotic gang during his Junior year of High School along with a few other overachieving honor students who begin to participate in this extra-curricular criminal activity.
Author's Notes:
Those of you who have read Perks of Being a Wallflower (or at least seen the 2012 film) will be familiar with a few of the characters as most of them will be OC characters. The story was influenced by perhaps one of the most underrated films ever made, "Better Luck Tomorrow." As this theme is inspired
This fanfiction is interpreted, as it was in Perks of Being a Wallflower, through Charlie's perspective as he becomes popular among students as the leader of the local narcotics gang, established by fellow honor students.
The writing styles are not very accurate to Charlie's, but I've gotten as close as I could towards his writing style. Although it is a rather different, the reader could assume that one reason why the style is different is due to Charlie's aging and that these letters will be written with haste in order to save time.
As I will be starting a new semester in college, I would like to apologize for any future delays on this fanfiction. If this fanfiction (which I doubt) becomes popular, there may be a few delays on time due to me being in college due to rigorous researching and studying. I am currently a STEM major who is trying to excel in my classes to achieve a Physics degree at California Polytechnic University of Pomona. This fanfiction is something I will write about on my spare time.
Another future reference: I will also be introducing novels and movies that Charlie will be talking about throughout these letters, all rights go to the people affiliated with these novels and books. Again, all rights go to Stephen Chbosky and to those affiliated with the creation of the 2012 film.
