A local author’s dream is coming true, with the publication of her debut novel. From the time Michaela Horan was four years old, she has been “writing” stories. Now, as a 15-year-old sophomore at LHS, Michaela is finally realizing her dream to publish Rolling Hills and the Lost Key of Peachtree Palace, which was released on Sept. 25. “I’m so excited for other people to read the words I wrote. I poured my heart and soul into this world and these characters. I can’t wait to share this story with the world,” Michaela explained.
The novel is a Young Adult middle grade fantasy story that follows sixteen-year-old Hattie Hills and her friends on a journey through mystery and magic.
As part of the release, Michaela will have a book signing Saturday, October 30, 2 to 5 p.m. at the Ovation Theatre Company studio at 61 Harvey Road in Londonderry. Readers are encouraged to order their copies in advance and bring them to the signing, as there will be limited copies available for purchase at the event. Rolling Hills and the Lost Key of Peachtree Palace is available online at Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Target, and more. Signed book cards will be provided for online orders not yet received prior to the event.
