Kauria
My first long story...
© Copyright 1999, F.D. Lewis
Kauria is the story of a young woman who has the gift of Magic, which is punishable by death. She spends the whole story trying to escape this death, and discovers that she was destined to help save her country.
Okay, I'll admit it here: This isn't much of a story in my opinion. But give me credit;
I wrote the premise in sixth grade, and this is the first time my computer didn't crash while
I was in the middle of writing it. I worked really hard on it, but the story has several
unexplained elements and is a tad predictable, despite the million and one changes I made
to it. But it's still worth reading if you're bored. I promise you the stories I'm working on
now are little more original.
Until then, let's just be happy I finally finished it, and I can now ignore it without feeling any guilt.
