A. White, an award winning former librarian, who is also a long time member of Romantic Time and Publisher's Weekly. A. White has been writing for over fifteen years. 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.

Chocoviv, thanks for sharing. I’m sorry to learn of your emotional distress from the memory. It’s an event that caused many people to remember exactly what they were doing at that moment. I haven’t visited the memorial. Maybe one day I will. Many people still suffers from the emotional trauma that day created. I think it made us all realized just how easily someone can harm us shall they choose to do so.
I was home with my family eating a late breakfast watching the morning news. Watching what later became a well known footage.

The first time I went (the memorial was just being built )I completely lost control of my tears that the Group of first responders that were there gave me a group huddle and took a photo with me… the second time I was there with my children, I kept reminding myself to keep in control as I walked through the whole memorial and explaining to my children.. they were a little worried that I would start crying too… luckily I kept it together till the end…..

I commence your bravery and courteous. I heard about it process from friends when it was being built but for personal reasons I never made an effort to visit it.
A close friend’s uncle worked at the World Trade Center and was late getting to work that morning. He’s a chronic late person. He didn’t know anything had happened until he was caught in the huge dust storm created by the falling building. Blessed for him he saw it in time to lay down in his car seat and the debris that burst the windshield didn’t hit him. He was covered in dust but pretty much unharmed.
