Fortune Cookie Confessions

         I received a fortune out of a cookie about three going on four years ago from this date. It said: “You have a very charming way with words and should write a book.” I thought nothing of it and thought I threw it away. I had found it in an old wallet of mine back in August 2011. A few nights after I found the fortune, I had a very vivid dream about this amazing adventure and thus there was my idea for my series Tale of The Curse. I know it’s a bit out of the ordinary, but I’m thrilled to get the chance to share that adventure with everyone. I have had quite a few people come up to me where I live and ask if I’m just in it for the money. And my answer was always, “The money would be nice, but I just want to share my stories with everyone.” And till the day I die, my answer will be the same. Others have told me I should change it to something about Adam and Eve or something a bit more church related, but to be honest I can’t write about something that’s not me. I’m more into the fantasy and fiction. It’s where I feel more like me. I feel more at ease writing about things where anything can happen. Where the most ordinary looking kid can become an incredibly amazing creature and where the underdog can become the hero. I like writing about things people can relate to through either likes, dislikes, places or even personalities. I’m not writing a history book, I’m creating a world where anyone can fit in. don’t get me wrong, Jesus is still my Lord and savior. I just don’t want to write about him. There are so many people out there writing about him anyway. Besides, my series is all about individuality and the mistakes some can make but also learn from. Actual it’s about a lot more than that. As soon as I get it published you will all know what I am trying to say. There will be about twenty chapters in the first book. I’m on chapter thirteen now, so as you can tell I don’t have that much more to go. If you have any questions or comments, please email me at:
