COVINA, Calif. - With a burning passion for writing and the support of her friends and family, young author Nichole Flink has pieced together "Nikki's Whit's: New Dimensions" (published by AuthorHouse) - a collection of short stories.

Throughout the book, readers will enter multiple worlds that will allow them to feel a range of emotions from intense despair and sadness to pure ecstasy and joy. Each story, however, has one common thread: utter excitement. Each story has been woven together from her memories and her everyday interactions. With each story bringing a new theme and characters, every reader will find a story they connect with.

An excerpt from "Nikki's Whit's":

I'm afraid to stand and fight. I'm afraid to lose and die. I'm afraid because I'm only human loosing blood, blood which is red and not green or blue or yellow, blood which is the color red and only red. Bruises lay on my body, stabs, thrusts, and slices cover me to keep me from winning. A game which has to do with fighting, to the last person standing out of a group of twenty. How did I survive the first thirty seconds of this bloody battle? How did I become second on top? A human, a weakling, a girl, a little girl. How did I end up on another planet fighting for my life, a fifteen year old girl?
