Ring In, Ring Out. MälarQueers, #4

Moving on isn't always a straight march. 8 months single, non-binary Robin is pretty sure he's over his ex-girlfriend. He's survived their anniversary, both their birthdays, Easter, Midsummer and Halloween on his own. He thought Christmas would be hard, but it was a breeze. No bickering about whose family to spend it with, no being guilt-tripped into spending way too much on gifts. Overall, a marked improvement. Ready to walk into the new year with pep in his step and reinvigorate his social life, Robin prepares for a New Year's Eve house party.
What he isn't prepared for is his anxiety ramping up as the party draws near... Ring In, Ring Out is a queer, New Adult, contemporary novelette about anxiety, music and moving on. It is set in Stockholm, Sweden and is about 7500 words long.
