All these changes displease her neighbor and best friend, Luke Foster, a grounded guy who is struggling with the more serious issue of his father’s alcoholism and abuse. Her new friends are a little faster than she’s used to, and she begins a rather daring (for her) flirtation with the handsome-and-he-knows-it David Wolfenbaker. She tries out for cheerleading rather than band, buys hipper clothing and jettisons the real Bible for that subversive gospel according to Seventeen. Swiftly getting the lay of the high-school land, Ricki Jo decides that she wants to move with the popular girls. The first thing she does is ditch her “plain ol’ ” name, taking on the new, more sophisticated (to her ears) moniker of Ericka. High school is about to start, and Ricki Jo seizes the opportunity to reinvent herself. Set in small-town Kentucky, this coming-of-age story depicts the ups and downs of 14-year-old Ricki Jo Winstead as she tries on a new identity.

We press onward, being even more mindful and diligent in our study. It has been a year of so much, but in January, we had set down a path of a year-long study of color. Choice of the colours used, as well as their order, is aimed at an interaction – influencing and changing each other forth and back.”Īt The School of Making, we chose 2020 as the Year of Color.
