The Truth About Storytelling ·

2024/04/26

Welcome to Fiction Friday again. Today, I will be reading Chapter 2 from Champion in the Darkness, a Christian Fantasy novel I wrote long ago. I wrote the first draft of this book in 2009, wrote the second draft in 2011 with NaNoWriMo, and I wrote a total of seven drafts before it came out in 2013/2014. I ended up having to revise it again in 2014, but I still stand by the story itself. It’s a decent read, and it’s story-worthy. I’m not saying everyone will like it, but I hope you do.
