I feel like the quality of these recent chapters hasn’t been as good, and I’m loosing steam. But I need to remeber that this is just the first draft. Fell free to provide… motivation to get me to keep going until then end. (Interoperate that how you will. I know,…[Read more]

So that is actually a term used in the medieval days. It means, “no one has explored this far, these waters are uncharted, it’s dangerous, travel at your own risk.” They would write, “here be dragons” because uncharted water is as dangerous as sailing into a place you know dragons live.

“They’re back!” yelled a child’s voice.

Yeah, true.
At least it was cold enough that it killed him pretty quick.
Ugh. I sound so heartless and not at all like I was tearing up AGAIN when I edited that scene, even though I’ve been over it more times then I can count.

Chapter 25 out!
I don’t think I want this to be James. This is too similar to Eric. Both characters feel unappreciated, and grow depressed because they don’t fit in and feel. The only thing different is James has hope in The Saviour so he’s less self centered and is more outgoing.…[Read more]

He’s the spiritual one, the one that’s always reminding the other characters to trust God or to appreciate their surroundings. He loves animals and plants and being out in nature. He’s also athletic.
Spot on!
