Once upon a time, a somewhat wicked witch named Gretsella lived in a cozy little cottage in the Dark Forest of Brigandale. She dispensed herbs and tinctures at reasonable prices, met with her slightly oddball coven on a regular basis, and had absolutely no need of any further company whatsoever, thank you very much. But then one afternoon, Gretsella came home to find a screaming infant on her doorstep. Against all her better judgement, she took the baby in. She named him Bradley.

My inspiration: I was told nobody writes for boys. Not true, but few. I can't do it, I need girls to like the story too. Universal appeal or it's not one of mine. A book for boys, which girls will like also. Action adventure. I can't read novels without special formatting. All my books have this. Almost everybody likes it. Cavemen especially. Simple past tense drive some insane; most adapt and find it refreshing.

When Jesus ascended to heaven in full view of his disciples, He showed the disciples what He told them in John 14—that he was going to prepare a place for them. While Jesus literally demonstrated what He said, we have turned many of Jesus’ teachings into figurative statements instead of the literal truths they are. What if Jesus meant “whoever lives and believes in me will never die” literally? What if Jesus, Enoch, and Elijah demonstrated how we are meant to access heaven instead of through death?
