She couldn’t move. Nina had tripped into a pit and as a result, she broke her leg. The pit was deep as well as steep, so she couldn’t crawl out. Her friend, Kat, had been with her and had gone to get help since she wasn’t strong enough to get her out. With each passing minute, Nina found her anxiety and dread growing along with the pain.

What if Kat didn’t return? What if Kat betrayed her, like many of Nina’s past friends?

Then Nina heard someone yell her name. Nina smiled when she recognized Kat’s voice.

Ever since discovering Roald Dahl, I wanted to be an author who would delight and move her readers through her stories. I also wrote my debut novel, "Of Demons and Deception" on Amazon.
