My name is Christina J. Easley. People will always gravitate toward something that stimulates their pleasure principle. Naturally, everyone seeks pleasure and avoids pain. Some readers will desire something that also arouses their intellect. There is curiosity about the simple facts of life and death. My primary objective when writing my books is both convoluted and prosaic. I can be complex when portraying my characters and story plots. I can also be straight to the point yet extravagant and exciting. I like a good action adventure scene. I portray people in the book that exhibit the difference between good and evil. There is a moral or physical battle between right and wrong. The people depicted in my books establish a purpose-driven existence. The main characters have something to believe in, and something to stand for. The stories display characters that have an aspiration or goal in life. The stories are about a cause. The plot in the stories give the characters something to live or die for. My stories exhibit attributes of courage, humility, patience, and perseverance through adversity. The people in my books don't give up on their goal or dream. The protagonist in my story exemplifies strength, faith, hope, loyalty, and love. Courage is the willingness to stand your ground in the face of fear. Perseverance is the ability to be resilient when all hope seems lost. Strength is a wilting flower in the wilderness that will not shed it's petals, even in the fiercest of storms. Patience is the plummeting raindrop. The torrents of rain will reign. Humility makes the weak mighty. Love makes lambs of wolves and mighty men! Faith is the steadfast tempest that will not yield; its winds blow like tongues of fire. Faith is the interminable beam of penetrating light in the oblivion of darkness. Faith is the inception of a struggle between moral right and wrong. To believe in something is faith, and faith is the fortress on the battlefield of flames. Hope is the torch that will not be smothered in the solitude of night. Hope is the beacon in the tormented sea. Hope is a lighthouse on the shore of life and death. Loyalty is the flag bellowing on the battlefield of love and hate. Hate is the evil anger of lost souls. Hate comes from those who search with no meaning. Anger is a lover of malice. Anger is the dance between to hardened hearts; one cannot dance without the other part. Love is a jilted lover that hate cannot tolerate! The heart holds anger, hate, and love in its hands like a chalice. To drink from the cup of hate will annihilate love, then love will never taste as sweet again! The pendulum of fate swings in the direction of both wrong and right. Those who win the battle of life never lift their arms to fight! The words of truth can ameliorate or obliterate chastising the sanctimonious at heaven's gate where regret and retribution will be too late! My fascination with writing and words is a quest for meaning and metaphor, allegory, and analogy. In my imagination, there is a storm of stories. I was enthralled by the spiritual significance of scripture as a non-denominational Christian and also by the questions of life and death. I went to college. I got degrees in cultural anthropology and physical science, technology, and science as well as the world of philosophy. I attempted to answer some of the enigmas that captivated me. However, I delved further into the real world by becoming a writing tutor at the university and also an (ESL), English as a second language tutor to foreign international students. Through teaching others, I learned much about life and how to live in the world in peace and tranquility. I hope to impart some seeds of wisdom or threads of knowledge in this tattered fabric of fiction and fact. One of the first things I learned about putting symbolic representations on paper was the five "W's": who, what, when, where, and why. This is a method used to disclose all of the most significant information about the story. Some would say, that the writer must disclose these five "W's" in the first five pages of the story to allow the reader to get their bearings. I like to set the scene in an obscure location, a geographically intriguing and historically fascinating environment. The parables and literary devices of scripture, as well as classic literature, became a fascination: personifications, parables, analogies, metaphor, similes, rhyming, alliteration, dream interpretation, and compare and contrast. I wanted to make sense of the scriptures and the literature then create my own unique variation of the respected works using the same literary devices!
