Like? Would you read it? Righteous Wishes: Wishbooks of Distoria: Book One

In Distoria, people live under a power hungry ruler named Distane; whose reign is like an unstoppable plague over the land.
Emma finds distaste in their Emperor’s infectious rule, and notices all of his unjustly deeds. Her mother is an Emissary to Distane, which means Emma oftentimes witnesses the unjust in person. Distorians despises Emma because of her mother’s government authority. On her home Emeril Isle, Emma used to enduring daily ordeal of hatred, judgment, and torment. That is until she’s inspired by her new friendship with a mysterious, alluring gypsy boy named Ace.
Life changes when Emma stumbles upon a Wishbook. A Wishbook can grant any wish written in it. But having one's wish doesn't mean joy and happiness. It can also mean misfortune; although, anyone would still kill for this book.
Thus, the existence of this Wishbook wreaks havoc on Distoria and Emma. Emma does not want the responsibility; all she wants is her freedom. Before she can attain freedom from an unwanted life and this Wishbook, she has to find the Paladin. The Paladin is a person who can change Distoria with the Wishbooks.
However, along the way, Emma discovers danger searches for her all the more.

NaNo-DEADLY DECEIVED Snippet

Amy Daniels
I have one week left of break, I go back to school next Tuesday. I'm challenging myself to get the rest of my NaNo done this week. I don't have much to go, but my ending keeps changing on me! I can't decide! Well, anyways, this is a tense scene I just wrote, and it's told in Amy's perspective.


"DEADLY DECEIVED SNIPPET"
  Just as she rounds the corner, the almost impossible happens, he’s up and tackles her to the floor. His full weight slamming down on her back, his hand in her hair, bashing her face onto the floor. Amy slams her head back, colliding with her target. Reaching back, she grabs the knife in his leg and twists it, It makes it yell out in pain and roll over onto his side. Soon as he’s off her she runs down the hall, towards the basement door.
She grabs the door and throws her self onto the stairs, her feet faster than her heart beats. Even through the darkness, she finds her way to the cracked window. She climbs the crates to the window and takes her elbow and smashes the glass. Amy feels the glass cutting into her flesh, but she doesn’t care. She lifts her torso up into the small window.

Her hips almost through the window, she feels hands grabbing onto her ankles. Amy kicks and kicks, hitting the assailant in the face twice, before he gives her ankles a one big jerk, bringing her back into the basement.

“Somebody, help me!” Amy screams as loud as she can, before she’s pulled back into the darkness, where her death lies waiting for sure.

Amy’s back is slammed onto the stairs, the steps biting into her back and skull. Her vision dazing and breath knocked from her lungs. She never seizes her thrashing, kicks, and fighting, she was not going down without a fight. He moving in on her faster now, punching Amy in the face, and slamming her onto the steps.

In one quick glance, the moonlight from the window at the top of the stairs and across from the basement door. She sees his face once more, but his face is different, because he’s a different man. Someone she is even more shocked to see, could never even believe it could be him.


With lots of love, God Bless
