Heroes Create Their Own Endings
Nimrod Vale is convinced he is the unluckiest twelve-year-old alive. Life is hard when your name doubles as an insult, but he finds it is even worse when your mom dies. Nim is forced to stay with his only living relative, his Aunt Holly in Portland, Oregon. After settling in, he is ready to get lost in a good book, except his bad luck gets in the way when he tips a cup of steaming coffee onto his tablet. While his most prized possession is being repaired, Nim grows anxious to start writing one of his own stories, so his aunt sends him to the attic in search of his grandpa’s treasured fountain pen.
An accidental discovery reveals a desolate world that he thought only existed on the pages of his paper. Nim prefers to pretend it never happened, and hide away in the school library. There he meets a loner named Pepper who gives him no choice but to be his friend, but when she discovers what he has been hiding, she forces his hand. Nim then must choose to step up and help the fictional war-torn land or turn his back on the people who need him most.
The Novel Adventures of Nimrod Vale is a middle-grade series meant for readers between the ages of 8-13+ yrs old
Nimrod Vale used to think he was the unluckiest kid alive. His mother’s death seemed proof enough of that. But, since discovering his grandpa’s magical fountain pen and its ability to transport him into handwritten stories, he’s had other things on his mind. Like the fact that his grandpa disappeared without a trace three years ago. Nim suspects his grandpa is still alive but trapped in one of his own fables.
With the help of his constant companion, the ever-talkative Pepper, Nim plans to enter his first story. When Pepper doesn’t show up, he decides to start the quest without her. Alone in a fantasy world that seems perfect at first, Nim finds nothing but dead ends. If he wants to discover any trace of his grandpa, he’ll need courage and the support of a friend—even if that friend isn’t talking to him anymore.
