A Break Between Chapters and A Call to Arms

Posted by on Jan 14, 2014 in Blog Posts, Journey to God

It has been a long time since my last update.  I have been trying to finish Journey to God but it has a mind of its own.  Unfortunately, that means that I am not working on short stories.  Even though I am not working on them, I have three that are outlined and have their introductions written.  There was a small break where I focused on only reading (holidays).  Right now, I am on Moby Dick and will be moving to Winnie the Pooh.  However, I am writing again and pouring more of my time into Journey to God.  Tentative completion of the rough draft is the end of February dependent on work and classes.

Before I jump back into my work, I wanted to bring up a good cause from an old and very important friend of mine.  Courtney works for Teach America (in the Chicago public school system) and one of her students experienced the horrors of a home fire.  For those who have never experienced this disaster: imagine taking all of your belongings and throwing out 80+% of them, including heirlooms and mementos.  Nonetheless, if you are interested in her student’s story I implore you to visit the following link and donate: Click Me!  Everything helps, instead of buying that nice frosty IPA buy the cheap PBR and donate the difference.
