I posted another update about the Haiti trip on my other blog! I’m going to try to post pretty regularly until I have the whole log online.
Stars in the Universe – Haiti Log 2
~ A Servant of the King
I have some very exciting news! I have been given the opportunity to travel to Haiti this coming January! I will be traveling with a team of 21 to continue work on the first Christian youth camp in Haiti, Jacob’s Well. I will be posting further information, updates, stories etc. on my other blog Stars in the Universe as the trip draws nearer and then afterwards.
Right now, you can read more about the trip in my new post Operation Jacob’s Well, Limbé, Haiti on Stars in the Universe.

…I started this blog.
I’ve written only 20 posts since then. I’m always amazed when I follow other people’s blogs where they post almost every single day of the week! Where do they find the time?!! But 20 posts for one year’s work is not much… oh well. That’s what happens when you’re busy. And I’m sure my low post-count is partially due to the fact that I’m away from internet access for the 3 summer months of the year while I’m working at camp!
So… to commemorate the one year anniversary of this blog…
I’m afraid there won’t be any fireworks, or whistles, or confetti flying… no fancy contests… or giveaways…
I’m simply going to write another post on the Narnia books. I’ve been meaning to do that for a long while. I won’t have a chance to write it today, so I’ll have to try to get it up here either tomorrow or over the weekend. But it’s high time I got back to the wonderful land of Narnia – I’ve been away for far too long!
For now, I just put a new post up on my other blog: Stars in the Universe. You can read it by clicking here
So, farewell for the moment, I’m off to the land of Narnia!
Oh, and there’s an “Amazing First Chapter Contest” going on right now on Nichole White’s blog: The Pen and Parchment. There are only four entries right now with three days left, and there are two-three books offered as prizes for the three winners… so, even if you don’t think your first chapter is very good, you can join and have a fair chance at winning! It’s a fun opportunity to test the quality of your first chapter, share your work with others, get helpful feedback from other young writers and win prizes! ;)
Signing off,

Psalms 51:10 “Create in me a pure heart, O God, and renew a steadfast spirit within me.”
I just started a new blog called Stars in the Universe that I am going to be posting to in addition to this one. You can access it here: http://shiningstarsintheuniverse.blogspot.com/
Here’s the start of my first blog post on Stars in the Universe:
The title of this blog “Stars in the Universe” came from Philippians 2:14-16a “Do everything without complaining or arguing, so that you may become blameless and pure, children of God without fault in a crooked and depraved generation, in which you shine like stars in the universe, as you hold out the word of life…”
This blog’s goal is to be a place of encouragement and accountability for young Christians who desire to love and serve the Lord and others. Our mission: Operation Hands and Feet – to serve Christ and live for Him, serving and loving those around us and across the world, to shine like stars in the midst of the dark world around us….
Read the rest of the post here: Operation Hands and Feet
I’m going to try and keep Stars in the Universe updated without it interfering with my posting on this blog or my writing! So, I suppose I will be busy, but that’s always a good thing!
In any case, I will hopefully have time to write a full post here soon, but it’s getting late, so for now, goodnight!

~ Innocent Blood update: I thought I had finished the first draft last night… only to realize this morning that I’d somehow left out a very important short scene… (it is possible to do so when you are writing at midnight) so, I have to add that in and then the first draft will be done and I can begin the unenviable task of editing and rewriting!
Word Count: 27,577 – 577 words past my 4th word count goal – haha, who needs them anyway?
