I just finished the first book in "The Kingdom and the Crown" series by Gerald N. Lund yesterday (Easter). It is called "Fishers of Men" and it was amazing!
Hello. I'm Willow, not of the human variety, but rather one of those ancient trees who whisper dark secrets to the wind. My life is brought to me in the seasons, my roots firmly anchoring me to the earth while my branches reach neverendlessly for the sky. I have seen the world change from the quiet, peaceful perspcective of my forest home, I have witnessed the fall of supposedly powerful empires, the passing of meek generations, and the continual dance of both life and death. The verst first memory which I have is the gentle touch of the rain, a soft caress as the entire world was reborn following a long, painful winter. As I grew and matured, I felt the sun's comforting warmth after a long and painful winter on my leaves, a presence that initiated my growth. I learned the language of the creatures with whom I shared my quaint space--the busy squirrels, the graceful birds (in both sound and flight), the near-silent rustle of deer hooves on the forest floor among the fallen lea...
I know, I know, it is a given that TV is admittedly entertaining, but nothing (and nobody) is perfect, and there are just some characters to these wonderful shows that you just can't stand. Yes, there is an equally and adamantly loathed character for every cherished figure on the shows. Characters can be truly off-putting in ways that most likely the writer did not intend (but being a writer myself, I know that sometimes the characters you create write themselves).

Well, here is my list of charcters that I can't decide if I hate (or love) enough to through the complete series in the bin--my most despised in TV history. 1. Rory Gilmore--"G...
I'm almost done with writing out my first draft of the book that I am currently working on (finally!). I may be a little in the foggy, hopeful twilight zone (considering that it is just the first rough draft that I am almost done with...) but let's just say that I am hopeful...☺️ This is a new approach with a fairy tale that I haven't done yet, considering that I have changed the names of some of the characters (what's new? lol I always do that, I believe characters develop into their names...and that part, I believe that I have never been good at (you're always your worst critic)), gender of some of the characters, and even complete storyline (it takes a really long time to write a story), but I am confident that I am almost done, at least with the rough draft part...lol. Who knows when I'll be finished with the whole thing! (But I am confident...) (I'm also thinking of writing/publishing this under a pen name based off of a dream that I recently had. 😴) ...
