Welcome to my World
After many years of sitting around with this story in my head, I am finally able to begin sharing it with all of you. This magical world I created all spawned from a simple Idea I had in college. I don’t want to spoil the book though so it’s up to you to figure out what that was. after moving back to Phoenix, the longing I felt for Colorado, and the desire to improve my self all compounded into me sitting down and starting the series.
“Trent awoke to the disconcerting sound of what could only be described as a banshee’s wail. His ears began to throb as it pierced his skull but, as quickly as it had come, the sound disappeared. He opened his eyes to find himself staring through a clear gel like substance illuminated by a faint blue light.” These are the first sentences I wrote. I didn’t start at the begining. in fact this chapter wound up being six chapters deep. I had no outline, and no characters. but as i started writing the story developed before my eyes.
Every night I would take my dog for a walk under the night sky, and imagine my self in my characters shoes. I would picture what they would do and what would happen to them. in the morning the notes would turn into outlines. Scenes started to pop into my head. I sat sown and started sketching to help me process. the picture at the top is one of the first I did for the series. It was suppose to be the inside of the cave. this led to chreature sketches. Trying to imagine beings unlike anything we’ve ever seen, but knowing that some rules of life are hard to overcome. Once the book is out, I plan on talking more about this. But for now This is all I can say.
I know I’m not the worlds best blogger but hopefully this little insight into my mind is enough to draw you in, and want to continue on the adventure for the next several years.
