NICKEL novel

I’ve been teaching high school for over 20 years and I’ve written a (hopefully) funny, heartbreaking novel called NICKEL coming out in September. It’s written from the point-of-view of Coy, a quirky teenage boy whose best friend Monroe (a girl) is just as odd and funny and obsessed with 80’s culture as he is. So when Monroe comes down with a mysterious illness, his inner turmoil only grows. As Monroe gets sicker and Coy gets a girlfriend from another social crowd, the balance tips and Coy has to figure out how not to give up on his friend, his family, or himself. Here’s more on the novel: http://leafstormpress.com/book/nickel/ http://nickelnovel.tumblr.com/
