'Staring in the mirror, she looked at her blurred face. Tears threatened at the corners of her almond eyes...'
    Everything in Ruby's life was about to change; sending all she knew and loved into disordered chaos...
    A story of social challenge, courage and the importance of friendship.
    
    Rolex Ruby uncovers the tragic story of poverty; the drastic effects of unemployment and disability as well as exploring the social dynamics that 12 year old Ruby has to adapt to.
    
    Just a little background...
    This is only a short story which I wrote for my Extended Project Qualification for college. The qualification required me to find a subject of interest and to use my skills to either create a product or write a report. Having always loved writing, I decided to write a book. 
    Rolex Ruby was then researched extensively before being written. Once my first draft was complete, I and my parents (Andy and Julia) edited it thoroughly so there *fingers crossed* shouldn't be any mistakes - though don't hesitate to point anything out!
    I painted the covers and bound the book myself. I also had to write a report and do a presentation to gain the qualification along with the 12000 word story. I am on for at least an A grade for it and I really hope you enjoy reading it here.
    
    It is available in hard copy or ebook through Amazon - links on my profile.
