Take a moment and read all about Heather!
OVERLAND PARK, Kan. — Take one daring damsel, mix in a swashbuckling hero and put them on a pirate ship in colonial times and you have the recipe for a grand historical romance novel penned by this week’s Fox 4 Young Achiever. This Parkville, Mo. teenager has accomplished what untold numbers of adult authors have tried and failed to do — get their first novel put out by a publisher and into the hands of eager readers.
Her fingers race across the keyboard and it all seems so effortless for Heather Manning as she crafts the story line and dialogue of a novel.
“I’m calling it Tossed Together,” said Heather. “It’s Inspirational Historical Romance. It means it has an element of Christianity in it. And it’s set in a historical period. And it has a love story throughout it. And I just love a good love story.”
It’s Heather’s favorite literature genre, the kind of novel this 17-year-old reads all the time. She’s deep into writing the opening chapters of the first draft now.
“I’m aiming for about 30 chapters,” said Heather. “And it’s going to be probably 80,000 words.”
