Into the Fire

First novels. This is mine. All 744 pages of it written originally in long hand notebooks. The Glossary of Terms (at the suggestion of my brother) consumed 3 and 1/4 of those pages in order to enlighten the non-racetrackers who would read it since horse racing – like many occupations – has its own unique language. Eight and a half years to write. Would do so many things differently now. Of course.

Got any interesting first novel stories?

Father, thank you for the experience of creating a story from your instruction and for the words of encouragement that carried me through this saga and remain true to this day. In the Name of Jesus, Amen.
