Book Update...

Readers, 

In case you've been wondering why there is nothing posted regarding our Book, here's the 411....

Traci and I have been trying to find a way to copyright what's been written so far without much luck. I have spent hours attempting to figure out this with specifically blogging what I write and every time I come to the same two conclusions. 

1. Are you sure you can even copyright a blog?
2. I could copyright on paper, but isn't there a huge cost in that?

So with this in mind, we are still working on getting this figured out, so don't give up hope just yet :-)


Here's what were asking, 

If you know anything about copyrighting a blog, we would like to know.

1. Where should we look?
2. Which is best (copyrighting blogs or actual hard copies?)
3. Is the cost something we can manage?
4, How long does it take?

-----------------------------------

As far as the book goes, I have written the first 5 chapters of the book. Traci has edited the prologue which would be the first thing we post. Finally Idea's are bursting from the seams on this book so we've got plenty of material. I just need the time to write it out. Hopefully that time comes soon, but in the lean time I have been re-reading the first 5 chapters and making additional changes as times has allowed.

Introductions

Well It's been a long time coming, 

My wife and I have been working over the past 2 years on something that we really feel God gave me to share with any and everyone who would read it. I have been writing, Traci has been editing and we both have been praying.

For those of you who know me, you know I've been writing a book for quite some time now here and there when the Lord directs me to do so.

I have been praying about this and I really feel for now this is going to be the best way to get it out there for people to read. As time allows I will be posting the "proto-type" or "1st official draft" of this book for those who'd like to read it. 
 
My hope is that one day this book will be a published work of art, in the memory of my beloved mother Debbie, with out her my passion for writing would not exist. It was her that taught me to embrace my imagination as well as the Pencil, :-).

The book is tentatively titled "Kedoshim: The Untold Journey." It is a historical Biblical fiction book that takes place during the time of the Book of Acts. It will follow the life of a former slave named Nathaniel along with his family and friends as they strive to persevere through life's struggles and to stand by what they believe and who they represent.

My wife and I have prayed often over the message of this book and over what God's intentions are with what he has given me to write. :-).  So be looking for update and postings and please, please keep this in your prayers :-)... 

Grace be with you,
