Welcome to the authentic home of The Zartia Series online, intended for young adult readers. It is currently unpublished, but I hope to discover an agent someday who will represent my writing as passionately as I do. Have a look around and sign the guestbook before you go if you feel like it.

Zartian Timeline
Starting with the conception of the series in 2007 to the present.
The structure of the Zartia Series, curtesy of my dry erase board skills:
"Evan had mentioned the possibility that there was a teenage girl who could change the course of history. It was a widespread rumor mainly, and although he didn’t pay much mind to things of that nature, he wondered: Could this be the girl? The one who supposedly had the island’s – and everyone else’s – fate in her hands?"
-Damien, Point of No Return (PoNR), Chapter 12
