[NOTE: This book was written in 2010, a time of long-distance phone cards, weight-loss obsessions, and searching for a man as a solution to life's problems-what a messy time to be alive! In other words, I hope you enjoy this throwback, and while this book does end on a cliffhanger of sorts, the sequel addresses any unanswered questions (which is hopefully fair, given that book 1 is free, ya know?] An awkward family homecoming at Christmas. A humiliating public weigh-in, with two judging parents as the audience. The announcement of a deadline for arranged marriage doom. And that's just the first two chapters. In "Year of the Chick," Romi Narindra must find love before her parents find her a husband. Easy to say, less easy to live through, as this book takes you deep inside "awkward Indian living in the West." To escape her fate, Romi wades through the waters of secret-dating, where self-consciousness is at an all-time high, and experience at an all-time low. It's the sort of thing that would turn almost anyone into a man-crazy freak with romance tunnel-vision, and that's exactly what ends up happening. All the while, a lack of inspiration in her corporate job leads Romi to her love of writing, in what quickly becomes a man-quest play-by-play. From whiskey-breath scum bags to uni-brow creeps and everything in between, Romi and her wingmen come up empty time after time. And that's when she meets a fellow writer. On the Internet. So will it be arranged marriage doom, or an Internet affair that's not as creepy as "To Catch a Predator"? Time will tell in the "year of the chick," a twelve-month quest to find love. Tick-tock. --------------------------------------------- "Year of the Chick" is book one of a series, and book two is available at Amazon! LENGTH: 75,000 words or 285 pages DISCLAIMER: this book contains profanities, blunt accounts of the dating scene, and many awkward family moments. Enjoy!

My name's Brandon Skyheart.. So you think being a 16 year old teen is easy? Think again. I'm just like any other ordinary teenager shooting hoops and skateboarding around. That's just part of my life. I never asked to be a descendant of some Middle Age King who's name is Aragorn. Yes, he's more like my great-great-great-great-great-great- Alright, you get the point. Though I get to inherit his awesome powers, I'm always at danger at all times. Well, what can I say? That's the life of a Skyheart. But thank God I'm not the only descendant. There're kids like me too. Good thing for me I'm not the only one. My ancestor and his brothers were blessed with immortality and powers from the Lord Elf of Tirith. It was not only a blessing, but also a gift to help avenge the fall of Tirith from the orcs. Centuries ago, my ancestor and his brothers lead the army of Osgilath to aid the elf city of Tirith from the attack of the orcs, who were trying to steal some ancient elf book known as The Book of Libreal, which has the power to wipe out the whole world, if it falls into wrong hands. But my ancestor's effort was fruitless. Which means no more every Sunday Baskin Robbins treat for me anymore until the world is saved. So here's my quest. I've been sent back in time by my ancestor's brother, Arathore (the ruler of the city Osgilath), who is the eldest among the seven brother, to travel back in time to find the Light Of Osgilath (a stranger who saved Osgilath centuries ago from the armies of Minas) and bring him to the future to help protect Osgilath from the attack again; since he isn't immortal, the only logical thing to do is to bring him from the past and to the future to aid us again. Yes, I know this would mean changing history, but you wouldn't want to go against a guy like Arathore. Making the big guy mad is big bad thing to do. Anyway, I have this journal I'll write everyday as I embark on my quests. And please, for the last time, it's a journal not a diary!

Fourteen-year-old Emily Adams is flunking math - and life. But Emily has a secret, one that she has kept even from her best friends. Soon the ancient legacy coursing through her veins will force her secret to be revealed. Dormant for over a thousand years, an evil has arisen and this time, it will destroy anyone - or anything - that stands in its way. Three teens embark on a dangerous journey and risk everything. For Emily, the fate of her friends - and her world - lies in her hands. Travel with Emily as she unlocks the secrets of her Celtic ancestors as she goes on a mystical journey to the inner house and beyond. Join the Journey . . . WHAT READERS ARE SAYING: "Natalie Wright has divined in Emily's House a simultaneous modern and ancient fairy tale of the greatest kind: sans parents, sans immediate consequence, sans cowardice. Bravery is said to be not the lack of fear, but action in the face of it. Like the best of Grimm, Perrault and Charles Schulz, Ms. Wright's kids find themselves amidst adventure, terror and turmoil, as well as ineffective and/or absent parental units. By their own bootstraps they must find help themselves to find their way home, to save not only each other, but perchance an entire civilization. "Adults drool, kids rule" is the motto for any well-written young adult or children's tale. Natalie's kids indeed rule. This one will last, alongside Grimm, Perrault and Schulz, in the coffers of timeless, fantasy literature. Plus, there's Hindergog and no one could not love Hindergog! Well done, Ms. Wright. Well done, indeed." - Jennifer S. Devore, author of "The Darlings of Orange County"
