He would write a chapter and then read it to his family, who were all very interested, and then write another one, etc. But, then, he gave up on it. It was several years later before he ever finished it. Just an interesting tidbit for you. :)</p> Sounds exciting! :) Do you know that Robert Louis Stephenson took a very long time to ever finish Treasure Island?

If I do complete the book, in light of the influx of other stresses/responsibilities/time consumers, it probably won’t be very soon.

But maybe slowly, as I find spare time.

Oh, and I am considering writing up a brief explanation of the allegories, once I’ve finished (and if I finish) the story.

I am quite interested to finish this, and much more interested to hear you explain all of the allegories. So, my vote is that you keep it up. I love you, Nep!</p> I am completely enthralled, Neppie!

I have the entire novel-length storyline as good as written in my head, but as yet only the beginning of it down on paper. I might post the first few chapters here, to see what sort of response it gets, and whether or not I should go ahead with it. I might not, simply because, as long as I'm working elsewhere full time, my <i>Images of the Savior</i> series, the value of which I can much more readily see, is more than sufficient to consume all my spare time and energy that I can devote to writing.</p> This is a bit of an experiment.
