To me, there's still nothing more thrilling than, every week, people getting to see another chapter in this story that you're telling.
Lots of kids, including my son, have trouble making the leap from reading words or a few sentences in picture books to chapter books.

A lot of other things come along with Chapter 11, which basically end up in a lot of pain.
My first name - I have no middle name - was chosen by my father, as he told me, on that solitary walk in the forested hills. He selected it from a verse of the seventh chapter of Isaiah; there was no Immanuel among our ancestors known to him.

I really hate those books where the murderer turns out to be somebody you never heard of who pops up in the last chapter.
New Year's Day. A fresh start. A new chapter in life waiting to be written. New questions to be asked, embraced, and loved. Answers to be discovered and then lived in this transformative year of delight and self-discovery. Today carve out a quiet interlude for yourself in which to dream, pen in hand. Only dreams give birth to change.
