I met the most amazing young lady today!

Naomi is a story builder.

At 14 she has just self-published her first book and seems to be on her way to a career as an author and what an adventure she is on... an adventure worth writing about.

Her Story:

Naomi is a part of a homeschool family using a Passion-Driven Classical Education philosophy living in New Hampshire, USA. She has learned to get done what she needs to so she can do what she wants to do - which is imagine her stories and write!

"I couldn't stand not writing! My brain would overflow!

If I couldn't write, I don't know what else I'd be doing."

Her Book:

The Struggle for Freedom is an adventure about 3 war orphans who choose to perhaps die for their freedom instead of living under the oppressive government that has taken over their country. It is a story of courage, friendship, and true commitment.

Beware! You'll be hooked - as I was when you read an excerpt here.

The beginning of chapter 9 is a turning point in the book - and Naomi's favorite passage. I love the way she shows Audrey's emotions and foreshadows the future in this passage!
