The Purpose

     I would like to take some time and talk about the purpose of this blog. I started AWS to chronicle my experiences in getting self-published, and while it has done that, it has also become a way for readers to sample my writing style and stories without investing any money. I like this and will continue to write about my journey, but I am also going to post short stories or chapters of larger tales on a quarterly basis. Feel free to leave comments, critiques, or suggestions on my stories.
     
     There will be a lot of free time ahead for me as my son starts his second half of his cancer treatment plan. With my wife staying with him most of the week while he gets proton radiation treatments, I plan to make good use of the quiet time and get a big chunk of Hand of the Black Blade done and a short story for the second quarter of 2014 posted.

      For the short story I have a few ideas bubbling around in my noggin. Idea one pertains to a fallen paladin set in the same time and world as The Call of Duty. Idea two revolves around a longer tale broken into chapters about the last day of earth before Christ leads His army of angels against the gathered forces of Satan and the last community of Christians caught in the middle. Or I have a couple of World of Warcraft fanfics wanting their tale told. That's my plan anyway, but we never know the curves that will come at us from the mist-shrouded future.

Happy Reading
