Oct 11, 2013: I'm currently working on a novel entitled 'Faith & Sacrifice'. It falls under the spiritual/religious category. The summary is as follows:
Having been Agnostic all her life, Eva De los Reyes' world is suddenly shifted when she meets twins Majid and Zahra Ismail. Unbeknownst to Eva, taking a leap of faith requires her to sacrifice much of what she holds dear, but it is only in the darkest nights that the stars shine more brilliantly.*
That last part was a quote said by Ali ibn Talib, the fourth Caliph in Islam and the son-in-law of Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). The entirety of the quote is: Do not let your difficulties fill you with anxiety, after all it is only in the darkest nights that the stars shine more brilliantly.
I hope to post one chapter per week starting Oct 26, 2013 God willing.
IMPORTANT: I do intend to finish this novel... when & how many chapters? Only God knows. Till then, please bear with me :)
Wa salaam.
