story...

When I read a 'story' I know it didn't just spring on to the page as it is. I know that it is written, rewritten, then rewritten some more before the final draft. But these posts can give an idea of what and how a story begins to take shape.

I have been working on the rough draft of this story since December 2, 2008. It is about several World War II families, before and after the war. How the gospel affects them and how they respond to circumstances in their changing world and how belief in the gospel changes their response.

Some posts take longer than others due to the amount of research required, even for a rough draft...Smile... and sometimes where you end up is not where you begin.

There are general religious posts on a myriad of topics, some were written before the story posts-which began on December 2, 2008, and some scattered through the story. I have tried to number the chapters on the story or label the chapter with an 's'. Thank you much,
