So it's been awhile since I've been active on the Minecraft forums, but I wanted to share that I actually managed to write a novel and publish it!
It's called Legend of Samantha Torres, and it is a middle-grade adventure fantasy story. A little blurb down below:
"For twelve year-old Samantha Torres, her Type 1 diabetes used to just be a frustrating nuisance - one more thing for her mother to tell her she wasn't being responsible about. But when her cruise ship crashes on a mysterious jungle island and separates her from her family, managing that chronic illness becomes a struggle for her life.
Luckily, she receives some help from a 3,000 year-old woman named Belby, who claims that Samantha's powers indicate that she is supposed to protect the island from intruders. Specifically, she has to stop a bunch of creepy zombie-people - who most likely have kidnapped her mom - from reaching the magical tree at the center of the island. With just a single bottle of insulin, some awesome gravity-bending superpowers, and a quippy attitude, Samantha is guaranteed to succeed and prove to her mom once and for all that she can be responsible. After all, putting yourself in harm's way to fight a bunch of bad guys is super responsible…right?"

Wow, congrats on publishing your novel! It sounds like an exciting read, especially with its adventurous plot and unique protagonist.
As someone who's struggled with chronic illness myself, I can relate to Samantha's journey of managing her Type 1 diabetes while facing thrilling challenges.
The blurb has me hooked already! Can't wait to grab a copy and dive into Samantha's world. Btw, I really like the look of the cover for your book on Amazon. It resembles the adventures of kids from Gravity Falls.
Gravity Falls is actually the season, and do you know, I also saw it many times with my niece's kids. and I really love Mabel Pines's character. By the way, which one is your favorite?[/p]
