Goodreads asked Nancy Young:

What are you currently working on?

Nancy Young I just finished my second manuscript for a novel titled: The Heart of Kala Pattar. Like Strum, my first novel, it is a global tale of love and loss across time and continents. This expansive tale takes a brilliant young Sherpa lad, who is also a Buddhist monk, from the highest peaks of the Himalayas to fulfill his promise in the lowest lands of the Outback. He is sent there by a Harvard med school drop-out who finds her purpose again by using her father's inheritance to help the monk who she believes is the key to Nepal's future. Meanwhile, the mysterious origins of an old hermit living near the top of Mt. Everest, takes the reader on a journey from China's Last Emperor, to a Film Festival in Sonoma. I am currently seeking a traditional publisher.
