Chosen

Novel number
three. The idea for this novel was actually conceived during the final
weeks of finishing up "Wrapped in Gray". After completing
that novel, and taking about a week off, I decided I was ready to
begin "Chosen", while simultaneously shopping "Wrapped
in Gray" around to agents and publishers. A few days later, Chapter
1 was finished, and I realized that if I kept on writing at that pace
I would end up in a padded cell. Instead I let Chapter 1 sit unmolested
on my computer's hard drive for almost a year. After some time away
from fiction writing, followed by the completion of the short story
"Internal Uprising", I was ready to resume work on "Chosen",
which I did in September 2001. About two thirds of the way through
the book, the idea for my third novel "The Champion" elbowed
poor "Chosen" out of the picture. Now that "The Champion"
has been completed and is slated for the high pressure "sophomore
effort" slot, "Chosen" is free to evolve in relative
calm.
Here then, is the first chapter of "Chosen"
