February 14:
Today is a legendary day because I'm finally brave enough to tell people about the books I'm writing.

Sarah the Sailor:

This book takes place in 1961-1963. It's about a 22 year-old African-American woman who was kidnapped from her home in Montgomery, Alabama at 13. She was taken in as a slave, but one night escapes on a boat she made. She finds a deserted island, and calls it her own. 1 year later a kind man named Charles shows up. The 2 quickly fall in love. Then after 1 more year a woman whose Sarah's twin shows up. Her name is Emily. One day the kidnappers show up, and force Sarah to join the army! Her new found friends help her on their way back home. Soon afterward they discover people invaded the island! Sarah, Charles, and Emily escape back to Alabama.

28 Miracles:

This book takes place 1100-1101. It's about 28 kids whose parents(the king and queen) have been murdered! They escape England and discover America! There learn how to survive and later build a town. They decide to head back to England to tell everyone about their discovery, when instead they solve the murder mystery!
