Days Before Danger: Day 3

Hey guys, I may as well do these all at 12:12 PM and I may do one on the 13th as well depending on how tomorrow goes. So, one thing that has been on my mind is God. You can stop reading if you want but God has done something amazing. Danger Kids isn't the only thing I do, I am writing a few books independent from Danger Kids and I do need a bit of funding. Danger Kids doesn't come out until next May, so in the meantime am broke. HOWEVER, I was asking God to show me what to do next in terms of my life outside of Danger Kids and he answered my prayer in a way I couldn't understand. There is a website that actually sponsors Christian projects which is PERFECT. You don't have to believe in God, " But as for me and my family, we will serve the Lord..." I'll tell you about all this stuff when the Twelve dies down (which it probably won't) and I'm getting ready to release my imprint on the Danger Kids universe. Danger Kids Book 1: A Generation's Journey (Working title)... (or not...) 5-19-2013 Keep The Secret

Days Before Danger: Day 6

Greatness. What is it? Walt Disney was a great dreamer. Michael Jackson was a great performer. George Lucas had a great idea. But what does that mean. What does our greatness amount to. Who will remember us? Writing a book isn't easy. It requires a deep knowledge of the language you write in. it requires patience. It requires research. but it also requires imagination. A mind capable of assembling a vast world where characters do, anything. It's up to you. I've never wanted to be a published author. I liked to write but until I met someone with a great idea I never wanted to have one of my own. We are all destined to do great things, we just have to find our center. The world is full of amazing things. Make it better before you leave.

Days Before Danger: Day 8

The days are boiling down. I can't wait to read the book. I'm reading a lot of other stuff though. Trying to find a sweet spot in my interests to translate into a book and I've been getting a lot of great ideas. I haven't seen A.S. Washington in awhile and I have no idea what to say after reading his book. I dont know... I just can't wait.

Days Before Danger: Day 10

I have a creeping feeling that this countdown is counting to something bigger than I imagined .. But that’s beside the point. I may end up finishing the next book before The Twelve even comes out, The anticipation is killing me. I feel like when I read the book in a few days I’m going to end up not wanting to continue. A.S. Washington is an inspiring writer. I mean I’ve met him and hung out with him, he is a chill guy. He is funny and immature at times. But he is also a leader. He is passionate, and when you read his writing its as if the same man isn’t writing the book. It reflects him, but it isn’t him specifically… I don’t know. Well that’s pretty much it, I’m talking to DeQuan about different things about how life will change. “And who knows… Starting a new journey may not be so hard. Or maybe… It has already begun…” Everything happens for a reason… Everything

P.S. Trust me, I’m not usually this cryptic everyday.

Days Before Danger: Day 11

Hey guys, it's day two of the countdown to The Twelve. I decided I'd tell you something about myself. Probably the only important thing about myself. I'm a christian... That's probably the first and last time... Maybe not the last... time that I'll mention it. It's a defining characteristic about myself and will be seen through my writings and future blog posts... But don't be fooled. I'm still a human. I hold no claim to perfection. But if you ask me any questions about what this means to me i will tell you... But you'd be surprised by how I really feel... I just thought I'd say with Christmas coming up... and day 2 being a Sunday and all.. Anyway I'm sure to talk about other Twelve and Danger Kids stuff coming up. BTW we are all getting really excited about the book release. It's piecing together and I must be honest.. I have actually not read it all... I'm only on like the fourth chapter... In fact more of it has been released to the general public than i have read... Anyway I'll be going now. Stay Happy!
