God Is.

So I just needed to put it somewhere how anxious I am to read this book. I went out and splurged to get it today at the bookstore, a whopping 25$.. which is a LOT right now! It is 3am, and I am just finishing up homework for the night and you would think I would want sleep but I have to read just one more section of this novel before I do.

David Adams Richards has long been a literary idol of mine, and I am genuinely excited to see what a piece of his non fiction is like, as this will be my first. I think he presents many valid arguments in this novel which is centered around his quest in Christianity. I am particularly interested to read his accounts of miracles and meetings with proud murderers.

I feel that I am going to be able to relate to this novel a lot, simply due to the fact that my own Christian relationship has been rocky. Also, I have 3 people waiting to borrow it when I am done so far… so I guess I have no choice but to stay up just a little later!… I won’t regret it when 7am rolls around…right??

    Oh, you poor thing! I sympathize for you so much that you were up until 3:00 am reading. Some people dont realize the stress and all nighters that we students have to suffer through. I hope you enjoy the book- and get some sleep :)

“You know that fiction, prose rather, is possibly the roughest trade of all in writing. You do not have the reference, the old important reference. You have the sheet of blank paper, the pencil, and the obligation to invent truer than things can be true. You have to take what is not palpable and make it completely palpable and also have it seem normal and so that it can become a part of experience of the person who reads it.” - Ernest Hemingway
