"Superhero in the Suburbs . . . Life just got a lot more shocking."


Adaline Sparks isn’t your average teenager. And it’s not her bright blue hair that sets her apart from the crowd. By day, she plays the part of a high school senior. But at night, she dons a padded suit and mask and patrols the streets as Volt: the super-shocking superhero of The City. Life as a superhero was going great until her father decided that it was time for a transfer: to small-town Shelton, Indiana. Adaline is haunted by one question: Can a superhero survive in the crime-free Midwest? But Shelton isn’t as crime-free as Adaline expected and before long she stumbles onto the biggest case she has ever uncovered. Along the way, she finds friendship with a variety of Shelton residents, including her attractive next-door neighbor, a Volt-adoring sophomore, and an aspiring journalist who is only steps away from uncovering her secret identity. But one man has already uncovered her secret: a fellow, flying super who is a little too arrogant for his own good. Can she ignore the attraction she has for this flyboy and partner with him long enough to uncover the great crime in Shelton?

Rewrite

I've been a bit scarce on FP as of late . . . alas, I know book two needs to be written!!! And I really want to finish writing it. I'm just trying to figure out how to proceed because, well, I'm currently re-writing the first book. And if I like it enough, I may consider going the publishing route. I'm changing a lot a lot of things in the book. And right now I have two tracks for the two books. One track would be the original sequel of Bolt (which would be posted online) but I have a very different idea for how I want the sequel of the rewrite to be. Basically, as I'm rewriting, I'm trying to figure out whether or not I want to write two versions of the second book as well. The thing that tells me to "do it!" is all of the amazing people who have supported my writing. I'd like to give you at least the second book, if not also the third planned book (I'm considering just changing the end of the second book though . . . that'll probably be the easiest).

Anyways, my Bolt rewrite is my first EVER! And so far, I've had a pretty flippin' awesome time writing it. I really want to show what I have to the world because already I think that the writing style is more mature, the characters are developed better, and there are some cool new ploty-twists that are fun.
