Considering how highly contagious the coronavirus truly is and how late in the pandemic agenda the public learned about its existence and quarantine was ordered. I say: In the grand scheme of things we are all lucky or should I moreso, say we’re blessed to be well and alive.
I mean when you look at the big picture; when you think about the possibility of just how many asymptomatic, but infected people we all may have unknowingly encountered before quarantine. The truth of it is; it’s scary. That’s why I say we’re all blessed because luck, nor a mere game of chance can’t carry you this far. A virus is no respecter of persons. Why some got sick and others did not? I do not know for we all walked around for weeks and countered who knows how many sick or asymptomatic people and some thing kept it at bay. What? I don’t know, but whatever kept millions from getting sick is something to think about; therefore in the grand sum of things, I say those who didn’t contact it were blessed.
I know this sounds like something John Donne would’ve said in the Middle Ages during the bubonic plague, but I think there comes a time in life we’ve to face the possibly that there’s still things about the functions of life and our world we do not understand and be willing to drop our ego and say we do not understand.

She took classes in creative writing in college, specializing in ancient myths and legends. and later at a local community center while living in Chicago. In college she won the national contest to verbally list every country in the world, it's capital and ingenious language. Her works are mainly horror, fantasy, extreme, and sci-fi as well as, as some may says, "the truly strange predicament and puzzling." Books that I've written are "Clash with the Immortals, and eleven others which are part of the "Unholy Pursuit saga,". She has been working on the Chronicles since 2007. She wished to complete them all before introducing them to public so the readers wouldn't have to for the continuation to be written.
The ideas of the book come from classic literature such as whose work greatly influence the world world such as Homer, Sophocles, Herodotus, Euripides, Socrates, Hippocrates, Aristophanes, Plato, Aristotle and many more. The "Book of Enoch" influenced the usage of Azazael as a main character and love interest. I created the primary main character from the Chronicle of Saints. I wanted to show them as real flesh and blood with thoughts, desires and yearning as any human. Not as they are so often depicted. So I created one of my own to show her as a real human that everyone can relate to.

Walgril, thank you and you’re welcome.
I can’t help think about all the sick and dying when I read about others complaining about being quarantined. Little does they seemed to realized how serious this virus is.We were all out there when this virus broke out and first started to spread. Any of us could have been affected but we weren’t.
