The Thief, the Book Bearer, and the Investigator




Hello everyone! This is LaVel Moorehead, how are you this morning?

I have to make a confession. Over the past week, I have not felt up to it. I felt tired, sick, and just empty of all inspiration. I'll give myself some slack because I have flu like symptoms. However, I made a promise that I would post an update once a day, no matter how small. So today, let's make this happen. I will post an updte on my novel whether or not I wrote a lot or not that much in my novel. :)

So, I finished chapter four last night. The chapter title is "Ghosts" by the way. Oh no, don't think that this book is going to be scary. No! In fact, these ghosts may not be what you think.

So, like chapters one, two, and three, I divided chapter four into three sections. Each section features a different character, and these points of view will meld together in chapter six. This has been the biggest challenge where I write in different points of view. The reason for that is because these three characters: Alexis, Leo, and Bilal experience seperate but HIGHLY important tasks. In this chapter, Leo steals an important magical object. I can hear someone gasping "no he didn't!" Well, yes he did I'm afriad. Alexis receives a book earlier in chapter two and couldn't find it in chapter four, until she..."sees a ghost." Of course, I won't tell you what this ghost looks like. You'll have to read the chapter when the moment arrives. And last, Bilal sees a ghost with another character named Derrick see a ghost near a myterious house. What do all these events mean? I don't know, but something BIG is going on!

Now that I almost forgot, I must say this. I must post the prologue to the blog. Wohoo! I can't wait to do that, but first I must send it to Professor Orlando (a friend of mine) so she can look at it. She doesn't necessarily want to edit and revise it for me, but she wants to point out parts of the prologue which catches her eye and/or should be changed.

Now, where do I go from here? On to chapter five, that's what. This upcoming chapter is called "The Golden Key." Bilal shares a special moment in this chapter, a magical moment which you won't want to miss. Well, the others do as well, but Bilal caps this chapter off. I'm absolutely excited for it.

Well, I need to go. I have to go to church, but I need to clean my room before that. Authors and their space (or more like their dens). I hope you have a fabulous Sunday.

Peace. :-0)
