The Compass of the Shadow’s Bane

Pirates. They are not gone for good like the world believed. They lurk in dark waters, taking control of ships, stealing the cargo, and killing the crew. A pirate ship, called the Shadow’s Bane, is well known for sending a piece of their crime back to its home. Sometimes it was a cherished belonging, or the ship’s wrecked remains, even a tortured survivor.

Clever 14-year-old, Marrielle Eidan, has experienced this firsthand when the merchant ship her brother was stationed on returned completely abandoned. Only her brother's jacket and a small compass were found aboard. The most ruthless pirates across the seas are in search of this very compass. Marielle has a decision to make. Does she keep the compass or hand over the only thing she has left of her brother?

Hello! My name is Giana. I live in the scorching desert of Tucson Arizona, but I dream of traveling the world when I’m older. I want to be able to share the good news about our Savior, Jesus Christ, with the world. I’m known as an introverted bookworm who would much rather bury myself in the comforts of soft blankets and good stories then venture outside the cave known as my bedroom. I love writing, reading, drawing, gardening, role play, daydreaming about new adventures, and making people laugh.

Have I mentioned I love writing? Because I do love it. Creating entire worlds and being able to share them with others makes the process so much fun. Writing is a way I can express myself, which is why I enjoy it so much. I can actually share the characters and stories that have only been real to myself, in my own mind. The thought that other people might enjoy the story I created makes me jump up and down with joy.

As a proud bookworm, I watch authors expertly address problems in our society. They are able to use their worlds to draw attention to those things, and I want to do that as well. I want to show people they are never alone, no matter how lonely they feel. Someone is always with you, even if you can’t see them. I want others to be encouraged by my stories, to feel empowered. I want them to know that with God, all things are possible. That is why I write.

Of course, I need to publish a few more books to get this message across, and that is the hard part… But I can’t wait to continue on my journey, and hopefully (if you want to) y'all can tag along with me. Wouldn’t that be fun?
