Selections from 'Dance of the Nutcracker' and 'Crazy Faith'
<p>In this episode of David Narrates Books, David Sheley reads a snippet from Chapters 4 and 5 of Dance of the Nutcracker by Paul Thompson, and then a bit from Crazy Faith by Michael Todd. The snippet from Dance of the Nutcracker follows Fritz, who has escaped from prison, as he hears men betting on when he will try to escape. Fritz then has an unpleasant encounter with Malregent in the dictator's throne room. The snippet from Crazy Faith is about exercising child-like trust in one's life.

Freedom, But At What Cost? Witnessing Man's Desperate Attempt to Escape in General Bazra's Presence
<p>In Chapter Three of Paul Thompson's Dance of the Nutcracker, Fritz experiences the slow passage of time as he works on a building site with other prisoners. One day, General Bazra arrives, and the soldiers guarding the site take Anthony away to be a gladiator. Fritz is left with a feeling of dread and promises to tell Anthony's family what happened to him. Then, we take a little detour over to Amazon to see where you can find all three books in The Nutcracker Trilogy. Time to PIVOT again. It's been six months since I last made a big change to my blog. Last time, I let you know that fellowbibliomaniacs.com would become <a href="https://www.youtube.com/redirect?event=video_description&redir_token=QUFFLUhqbFBpUWJJUG10dHVUWGdKZ3BrRmdLQWI1ZU5kZ3xBQ3Jtc0trQkdYMXlZeTk1TWJGbmc3bXJsSTlnbjFaYWU3dU41RjY2MnhBcUtMRkFhTktiUFltc3d5T3NOVmZOWDdId3VoWEs3b1R3b3NUcUdfTFhsSHdJMW5xTmZBODZjN2pxcG00VzJ4bW16eXR0WDFsaXQzUQ&q=https%3A%2F%2Fdavidsheley.com%2F&v=nqSNinlc5cQ" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">https://davidsheley.com</a>, a personal blog and website hosted on WordPress. WordPress is a great tool, but for someone like me who writes as a hobby, paying $50-$100 per year for a site like this isn't very cost-effective. With that said, I'm going to be focusing my efforts on <a href="https://www.youtube.com/redirect?event=video_description&redir_token=QUFFLUhqbDBKQ1U3a0lZMV96U0U4RldITnVoVjhXRVJVQXxBQ3Jtc0ttZ1BmR05YekxDMTllb01YT19tSHJhTW9oQWNacUtGSG5yakx1a2JDR2RqTjFvLTZNLTFHc0FTYWJydVhvb3ctekgyVlM4RWd6X3VRRGwxcDhCUE8xTGxMazFtZ21lVGMtakR6X013TFpnS3I4cmR0Yw&q=https%3A%2F%2Fdavidsheley.substack.com%2F&v=nqSNinlc5cQ" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">https://davidsheley.substack.com</a>.

You'll be able to enjoy my writings, photos, audio, and video ramblings ad-free. That's one of the really cool things about SubStack - there are no ads. It's a place to read great writing from newbies like me to professional authors and journalists. I'm excited to announce a new project that I'm working on called The Artifact. This will be a collection of short stories. Most will be science fiction, and at least initially, they will all be written by me. Eventually, I hope to invite other talented authors to join me.

I want to create something worth your time, which will be hard to do if I allow myself to be continually distracted by the myriad of social media available at my fingertips. I'm not closing any of my accounts - I just won't be looking at them from my phone. I'll check in from my desktop computer from time to time - probably to remind you about what I'm doing on Substack.

Keeping Track of all these Voices is Hard!
<p>In Chapter Two of Paul Thompson's Dance of the Nutcracker, Fritz learns a little bit more about the antagonist of the story: Malregent. Just who is this guy? And why is he so interested in gold? It seems to be an obsession that extends beyond pure wealth. I discuss one of my struggles as a fledgling narrator as well as an upgrade to the format of this podcast. Stick with me. It's going to get even better!
