Someone with too many ideas to write them all down, hoping this is a good outlet
Thought I posted this but apparently not - did not have time to get to Blood Diamond this weekend but did finish ch. 41 first draft so chapter 40 of Strange Awakening is up.
Current status: Between Worlds could post CH 31 at any time.
Strange Awakening: Chapter 40 needs review before post, but won't review until Ch. 41 complete - at about 75% right now.
Blood Diamond: Chapter 11 about 75% complete, should finish this weekend.
May start something else as filler just to have a frequent upload - maybe True Blue (cops who deal with unusual crimes) from Royal Road, or maybe my "romance novel" The Blonde Bet. Nothing else is ready to share, unfortunately.
Apologies - when I wasn't busy, I was sick this week, so only have a chapter for Between Worlds ready. Hope to get new ones to the other two active stories up next week.
Running a little behind - should have some new stuff up late today or some time tomorrow hopefully.
Should be back on track and posting at least once a week to the active stories before or at the start of the new year. Should be, but no promises, sadly.
@Admirers_Quill Really? Thought they had been around before that - and that the whole "jyhad" being left ambiguous (is it an internal only war? an external war against unbelievers? a hybrid internal/external struggle with those who eschew orthodoxy?) was partly to keep them in the fold. I knew they had broken out later and, like the Thugee of India, efforts were made to eradicate them with limited success, but thought they were a much older group.
I have known followers of Islam (back when I lived in Chicago and worked for a school where about half the staff was Muslim) who disagreed on exactly what "jihad" was - it is not JUST us Westerners who find it unclear. The only one who went into any depth on explaining it said both interpretations are valid, though it should be seen as more the internal than the external struggle.
As I said don't look for knowledge on a particular topic from a layman. Take it from a person of knowledge and you won't be misguided. I presented you a YouTube channel "the Muslim Lantern" if you want to know the real information on the topic.
Yeah, as I said it is both internal and external, encapsulating every struggle that you do for the sake of Allah.
Though my point was not to discuss the history of the Middle East or its dominant faith, but how a concept from the Middle East wound up, about 20 years ago, absorbed into the online fictional ninja lore...
Bro, Japan's got their stories about ninja lore. gThey dont need to take stories from some middle eastern folklore. They already have stories from their own culture.
Been a crazy week. Will update "Between Worlds" sometime tomorrow (Nov. 23), and everything (Between Worlds, Strange Awakening and Blood Diamond) next Tuesday. Not sure what will happen past that for a while, we'll see.
Hello,
How are you, If you have some time, can you check out my story?
Earliest I'd have a chance is probably Sunday. Send me a link then and maybe but no promises - next week is going to be nuts.
Okay thanks
Gratz on Trending.
Really? Never check that so thanks for saying something!
