(Click on the Image to open a clearer view)

Welcome back to UnEarth!

If you've completed your first six chapters of your new and unfolding Suspended-Release Novel, give yourself a big hooray. Now go buy yourself dinner and enjoy! It's that simple. Reward your life each time you step up to the plate and stand in the grips of the unknown. Spooky? We hope not. But really, Well done!

Now that you've completed six chapters, try adding an element or two to your original graphic you prepared during the Step 1-7 Set up. A new and refreshed graphic is a great way to get more attention for your book, and keep your audience on their feet. If you haven't been updating your social media pages about the book and the new chapters, do so now. You might simply say, "Don't forget to check in on the blog today and start my new book. I'm up to chapter six." or "Are you reading my new book? Catch up now."

These are the types of small but exciting messages that spark audiences to talk about what you have going on, and even subscribe to your blog so that they may receive direct updates. But don't neglect to ask!

So we got all of that covered, now here's Chapter 7's Big Challenge. You may read the instructions in the graphic above or just continue here. Depending on how you've moved through your first six chapters, you'll decide how big or small the challenge will be. If you've only revealed a single plot, try adding another plot layer to be resolved over the course of the story. With that, you might even choose to introduce your next character. Since this is your first book, don't pressure yourself to go beyond three characters that you will develop and keep as a part of the plot's twists and turns.

That's it!

When you're ready.. approach your next writing day and challenge with the same excellence and vigor that you brought out since the start. Don't forget to keep updating your audience weekly about your unfolding book, and be sure that everyone knows the name of that book.

Thank you for joining UnEarth, and we'll talk soon.

Chapter 1, Camie's Secret

A Better Pair of Shoes, a novel Chapter 1 Introduction ( narrated by Kayla) Just as we are living souls; life itself has a soul. And there’s a heartbeat to life. I call it the rising and the falling. Just as we must rise, I’ve learned that we must fall. I find that I’m grateful for the things I learn when I fall, yet I often dislike the cuts they bring and the scars they leave behind. Today I fell, but perhaps for months I’ve been falling, and I have all the bumps and bruises to prove it. Although they’re not visible to the eye, they are surely recorded on my soul. It’s funny how often my spirit tried to warn me, with a bit of melancholy here and uncertainty there, but at the time, I hadn’t considered t...

A Better Pair of Shoes "The Thinner Soul", a novel- Chp. 18

(Click on the Image to Open a Clear View) #ABPOS The Thinner Soul, Chp. 18 Jeff - I was raised by my grandmother. My father's mother that is. I've never met my mother or any of her family members. She just wasn't there. She hadn't been a distant awareness or a part of the factory settings. Any fall back I could resort to was my grandmother Dorsey Dunbar, but she was gone now. I'd only seen pictures of her and her husband. He also wasn't there. She had a tradition however of using the "D" in Dunbar to create the household and community names we often went by. In the neighborhood, she was known solely as Ms. Dordy. That's "Dor" for Dorsey and "d" for Dunbar. I was about nine years old when I'd put it all together. It was the mail carrier that brought truth and light with him. I was Jed. And my father; he was Tod. His name is Timothy Dunbar. He was killed in a robbery when I was young....

A Message From the Author!

(Click the Image to Open a Clear View.) "Message From the Author" Dear Reader, Thank you for taking the time to join the release of A Better Pair of Shoes "The Thinner Soul", a novel . The question of this piece is The Thinner Soul. Is it within you? Is it the soul without you? .. or Is it all around you? Sometimes it's not about strait lines or circles, but rather, about the depths and the heights of our existence and how the ebbs and flow of those extremes impact the soul forever. This book follows the main character onto a journey of many loves. Yet, with and even without each of these loves, her soul grows thinner by the sheer tug of war. This story is a great exploration of things worth fighting for, and things worth relinquishing. It's no doubt Radiance is the central focus, and all the book's subplots remain superficial to the true scheme of things. She remains resilient, and somewhat elusive until at last. I might also add, in thi...
