The Social Porcupine

Today I have the pleasure of introducing another author and a bit of her writing :) Enjoy!!!! Have  you ever felt like too much was going on and you just couldn't handle anything more? Or maybe someone has bothered you so much that you avoid them as much as you can, but they still keep coming back. David felt that way in Faith Blum's short story, Faith is the Victory , and she's here today to tell us more about her book. About the Book Winning story in Perry Elisabeth Design’s short story contest. I don’t like change. I know most people get used to it, but I have never been able to. When Dad announced their move and I couldn’t go with them, I didn’t handle it well. Would I ever find the faith to be victorious?

Each story in this nine novella series focuses on one of the nine aspects of the Fruit of the Spirit while also retelling popular fairy tales in a clean, exciting, and inspiring manner. A glittering sword. An ancient oath. A blackened rose. And a melody which ties it all together. Evrard and Roinette, twins separated at birth, are caught in a battle beyond their own limited powers. With their ability to walk in the melody realm, catching glimpses of the light and darkness underlying Aslaria, comes even more danger. Deadly mistbenders. Writhing walls of blankness. Hateful drumbeats. As a warrior in the Melody, Evrard has seen it all. But his own ability in the melod...

Not too bad ;) And I've got views from all over the world :) That's pretty neat, I think :) Average views per post is 44. This last blogging year has been a lot of fun. I've learned a lot about blogging - with a cell phone - and I've had tons of fun. But there were times I was like "Why did I even start this thing?"

And since I sent out alot of group pictu...
