Now that I write, it just doesn't satisfy me like it used to. I always feel like I'm wasting my time and my mentality when I watch too much.<BR/><BR/>Those books sound great. And after hearing the author herself explain why she wrote that scene, I want to read it all the more. So kuddos to you for helping publicize her. That's good writer's karma, girl. :-)<BR/><BR/>As to Alcorn's book, if you like beautiful prose, you might enjoy "The Thirteenth Tale". I've just started it and the writing is breathtaking.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5429542410238239360.post-15965650595062902732008-05-23T15:49:00.000-04:002008-05-23T15:49:00.000-04:00Thank you so much!

I'm so glad you liked it!<BR/><BR/>The picture of the crucifixion is actually based on a story I heard in college about a statue of Christ that a church commissioned. They were so offended by the brutality of what the artist made that they didn't want it, but the artist had been trying to convey the depth of Christ's sufferings rather than allowing us to gloss over it. That story really touched me and when I was thinking about Aiden's spiritual desert, I instantly knew that a statue like that (I had to change it to a painting since a statue wouldn't fit in the pastor's office) would impact him in a way nothing else would.<BR/>CamyCamy Tanghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00790591988777275651noreply@blogger.com
