Luke Wright grew up in a small rural town with his single mom, who had him young and spent most of her time working to make ends meet. Because she was rarely home, Luke learned to take care of himself early. He was a quiet, shy kid who spent most of his time daydreaming, especially in English class where he discovered a love for writing. Without much guidance growing up, Luke never really learned how to process or express his emotions.

When Luke was in third grade, his mom got a better job in the city and moved them into the home of her boyfriend, Chris Morton. The transition was difficult. Luke was already behind in school and had to repeat a grade, and suddenly found himself adjusting to a new house, new school, and a strict father figure he wasn’t used to.

At his new school, Luke met Jae Lin. The two quickly became best friends, and it turned out they lived only a short walk away from each other. Luke started spending more and more time at Jae’s house and over time her house became a place where he felt more comfortable being himself.

As Luke got older, the tension in his life began catching up to him. Without healthy ways to cope, he turned to self-destructive habits. For a time he struggled with self harm, and later began drinking after being introduced to alcohol by Brielle Sanchez. Writing became one of the only ways Luke could process what he was feeling, especially after discovering an online music blog called Ghostnote, where someone anonymously posted songs and journal entries about grief, loneliness, and growing up.
