Overview

A bundle of stars. A three-day deadline. One chance to be human. The Nowhere Girl is a high-concept novella about a child born from the cosmos. After an eternity of being nothing but loose thoughts and stardust, a wandering consciousness is granted a single wish: the chance to finally exist.

Formed on Earth as a curious, nonverbal child who names herself "Kit," she is given three days to answer one impossible question: Is being human worth it?

Kit must navigate a world defined by physical limits, human ambivalence, and overwhelming emotions. If she chooses to stay, she accepts a life of imperfection. If she refuses, she returns to a formless oblivion. Even when she struggles to communicate or falters under the weight of being perceived, Kit chooses to keep standing. Ultimately, she must learn that her own will is the only thing stronger than the tricky cost of being human. She chooses to learn who she is. She chooses to find peace. She chooses to be Kit.

Inspired by a want of more neurodivergent main characters with agency, as well as Stranger Things’ Eleven (Whose character was mistreated for the sake of being nothing more than a superhero plot device than an actual person), please check out my book:

It took me until 2022 to get into Stranger Things because I had no interest in anything Netflix had to offer but I was funneled into watching the show since my family was watching Season 4. Wanting to catch up, I binged the entire thing in a week.

I think if you were to ask me who was my favorite Stranger Things character, I'd answer Eleven. For like... billions of reasons.

There is one specific reason I would like to point out, and I don't know if a lot of people think about this or not.

Art and media can be interpreted in many ways, and I choose to interpret El's journey, specifically in Season 1, as an allegory for being trans or nonbinary. YEP.

My memory might be a bit fuzzy with the show, but from El starting as someone who didn't understand themselves or how they were supposed to act, then seeing those pictures of young Nancy and thinking she's pretty, wanting to be pretty herself, she wants to help her new friends with her powers while feeling pretty, she feels pretty wearing Nancy's old dress and a wig, then she takes that wig off and realizes she doesn't have to wear some dress and have pretty hair to be pretty, and she ends the Season by saving her friends, all while finally having a bit of understanding for who they are/want to be. At least, that's how I think of it.
