I'm back. Was it worth it? Well, i've learned that if you refrain from eating the whole thing, even half, you are perfectly satisfied. So yes, it was totes worth it.
Well, I come to you with this post this morning, because I feel like it is time. Unless you read my blog only to look at the pics, you already know that I am writing a novs. However, since really early on in the journey, I haven't disclosed much info on what this novs is actually about. I get asked this question often. Which makes sense, after all, tell someone you are writing a novel and the next question should be, "about what?" And I don't know why, but I always say, "well, I'm not really disclosing that information as of yet."
That is all about to change — right here — in this post. Of course, if rando at the coffee shop asks, probs I won't tell. But, for my blog readers, I think it is time. Of course, a while back, probs in the month of Febs, I posted some brief excerpts and a vague overview. But in the world of novel writing; things change, characters redefine their path, and plot lines need to be adjusted adequately.
So here it goes. If you were to go to the book store or library to find a copy of my book, you would find it in the Young Adult Fantasy section under F. Now — don't get ahead of yourself — it is not about vampires, angels, or time travel. Not even about wizards!

Of course, as any good YA book needs, this is a story of romance. Shockingly, even to myself, the romance is not necessarily the main focus. Though, by the end that may no longer be true.
In brief overview: Caleb Porter, a charming and honest young boy, moves to a small town in ambiguous location when he is twelve and meets a young girl named Jaylee. The two become close friends, until one day, Caleb disappears. Everyone is led to believe that he is dead, until five years later when he all of a sudden comes back. With mystery man Jake in tow, Caleb returns to his old town to discover Jaylee has moved on. But she is in immediate danger. She has a necklace that he gave her years ago that contains a key to answers that everyone needs. Caleb wants it, but so does everyone else. Caleb and Jake abscond with Jaylee and this is where the story really gets going. Caleb is trying to learn who he is, while Jake is desperately trying to convince Caleb to be on his side, meanwhile Jaylee just wants to make it home for prom and graduation. However, she quickly learns that she can't just walk away and the bond she shares with Caleb is more than just a childhood crush. And Caleb learns that it is less about choosing a side and more about following what is right.
