Welcome to my new blog! My name is Amanda, I am 14 years old, homeschooled, and Catholic. I have found it to be extremely difficult to find good fiction Catholic novels for teens today, for this reason, I am working on a novel myself. The (working) title is Tear Stained Eyes, although that may be changed in the future.
Summary:
Catherine, a homeschooled Catholic teenager, wishes to fit in and have friends, but sometimes quantity isn't as good as quality. Not to mention how difficult it is to find friends in this materialistic world of overindulged teenagers. Catherine develops a crush on one boy, but seeing as she is only fourteen years old, and her parent's forbid her to date, it seems as though her fairy tale has an unhappy ending. When her friend undergoes a devastating trauma related to her boyfriend, Catherine realizes the reason for her parent's decision about dating and respects it, but it becomes harder than ever when she is tempted to date behind her parent's back.
It offers a great suspenseful plot along with a good moral. Some of this story has been based on my true life experiences, common difficulties within modern teenager's lives.
I have sent a manuscript to a publisher, and I am anxiously awaiting a reply (which should come within a few months). The novel is not finished, but it will definitely be completed within a year.
Thank you for visiting my blog! Stay tuned for more updates! :-]
