It's been a while (almost six months) since my last post. Here is why. I am not going to be posting the story I was working on. There has been a change in plans. My story about the adventures of an organization called "Angels Inc." and its leader Alpha is being put on hold for now.
What happen was I got to the point in writing the story I didn't know where to go next. I had taken the first chapter which when hand-written was five chapters and it up being 104 parts long. The second chapter, which was originally chapter six, was not far behind that number. Now I was on chapter three, and I am not sure how long it would it up being. Because I couldn't figure out where to go next in the story, I stopped working on it one day and as the days go by, I began to lose interest in the idea and other ideas began to pop in my head. Also, my computer needed an update and all of the files I had opened to write this chapter had to be close and there were four of them. So, the story is now on hold.
What I am working on now is a new story that may include some of the ideas from this one so I may not even go back to this story or the one that preceded it. Now I am going to explained what my new story is all about. First, I am starting by creating an outline with all of ideas for it. Then I will begin writing the story itself hopefully following the outline I had created.
The story itself is about another universe where Earth exists, but things are different. This story will be an analogy of my faith in Jesus Christ. Things in my story will represent elements of my faith. I am a believer in Jesus Christ. I became one as a child around the age of 8. I want to write a story similar to the "Chronicles of Nardia". This universe is layout different than our own. We don't know how the universe is laid out due to our lack of space travel. So, I made one.
In this story, the universe at its very center is a cluster of stars called the "White Lights". Coming out of the center are sectors each filled with stars of a certain color. The universe is also divided into three areas. The first is the closest to the "White Lights" and is called the "Light Area". The second is in the middle and is called the "Grey Area". And the third is the farthest from the "White Lights" and is called the "Dark Area". And behind that area surrounding each sector is the "Black Out".
In that first area, are planets with beings with special powers that are known in the universe as "Angels". They go out to the other planets to protect them from the beings from the "Black Out" who want nothing more than to corrupt and conquer the universe. These planets are at the border with the area with the "White Lights". Other planets in the first area have beings with special powers and they are trained by the "Angels" to help protect the universe.
Earth exists in the second area and its people are of special importance to the "White Lights". Its people are the most vulnerable to the corruption of the beings from the "Black out". Now having special powers are not just limited to the ones in the "Light Area". Although they are not born with them, the people of Earth and other planets in the "Grey Area" can be given powers from the beings of the "Light Area" or the "Dark Area".
Okay, what are the analogies in this story? That is probably the question that is on your mind right now. Well, the "people of Earth" in this story are representing the "Jewish People" as they are the "Chosen People" of the "White Lights". The "White Lights" themselves represent God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit.
Now before anyone criticizes me of any of that last part, allow me to explain. This is a fictional story. None of it is real nor do I believe it could be. This is simply coming from my imagination. Instead of one planet being created with life, many planets were created with life. Each has its own culture. Many of these worlds will mirror the different cultures on our planet. The "Lights" will pick Earth to be the example they want for the universe much like God selected the nation of Isarael to be the example on Earth. Biblical events such as the "flood" and the "Tower of Babel" will happen but just not on Earth.
I haven't really gotten to the backstory yet in my outline. I am about to do the setting for it next and then the "mythology". This story will also have characters that are creatures from our many myths and legends from our many cultures. Some of these creatures will be good and others will be evil. And what they are and how they came to be will be revealed in my story. The beings from the "Black out" are the many demons out there who want to keep people away from the "Gospel of Jesus Christ". There is a leader of this group, and the identity of that leader will be revealed in the story.
Finally, and how I am going to go about to do this has not been decided yet but my story in the story is going to be written by a character who was given an assignment to write a "Fantasy story" without the use of "God" or "Jesus". What I haven't decided yet if what age this character will be. I will have that decided by the time I finished the outline.
I will update again if things change with this idea or if it makes it to the point I want to start posting it. And if things really go the way I hope then I might even post a promo for the first chapter of prologue. That is all for now.
