Message from DTRA: This thread suffers from BPE. Remain calm.

What's BPE? And here's my novel:
The Other Half of Me
America Fern Douglass is a twelve-year-old girl in rural New England. She spends most of her time doing homework, taking care of her guinea pigs, helping out at her Kids For Trees club, writing poetry, and making sure her friends don't discover her greatest secret...
That secret is Tandriel of Saerdir, half-elven archer and America's alter ego. America is schizophrenic, and is constantly seeing visions of Tandriel's world through her eyes. Tandriel lives in a world of castles and kings, of treachery and intrigue and even magic.
But mere science can't explain why, though the psychiatrist thinks Tandriel is a figment of America's imagination, things from Tandriel's life start popping up in America's. And when America's brother vanishes, only to turn up in her visions of Tandriel, all are forced to confront an impossible question.
Tandriel of Saerdir can't be real...can she?
