Ice Hell

'Ice Hell' was originally written when I was 14 years old for a school project. It was the first novella length narrative I ever wrote (~55,000 words). 

​

Set in Antarctica, the original adventure followed a group of scientists who were forced to survive the brutal Antarctic wilderness. It was written from the first person perspective of each of the eight main characters, which seemed like a great idea at the time. Given my love of nature and animals there were also several non-human characters who worked their way into the story, either helping or endangering the group. As it was written by a teenager, there were also romance subplots, long lost twins, and petty in-group fighting.

​

While I still love the idea of writing an epic adventure set in Antarctica, full of natural wonders and interesting characters, I also saw a lot of room for improvement.

​

'Ice Hell' 2.0 is still set in Antarctica and still follows a group of STEMM (science, technology, engineering, mathematics, and medicine) experts as they are forced to trek across the Antarctic wilderness. But this time the characters are more well-rounded, the events are more action-packed, and the manuscript won't be written by a teenager.
