Hello Friends!

I’m dropping in live during my sabbatical to tell you all about a new project I am working on. My last sabbatical I launched the Podcast for Nerdy Christians. This sabbatical, I am starting a Substack newsletter called Trail Blaze Fiction, a new experiment in participatory storytelling.

Each week beginning Friday, July 5, 2024, I will post a chapter of a brand new fantasy story. At the end of the post, readers will vote in a poll about where the story will go in the next chapter.

If that piques your interest, please join me over on Substack! (If not, no hard feelings. WheretheWind.com isn’t going anywhere.)

What’s the First Story?

We’re beginning in my fantasy world on a continent called Lanesanya in a country called Titanstep on a small island housing the Spark Foundry where an arcane engineer, the halfling Amilira, has just presided over a spectacular failure: the malfunction of the entire batch of experimental automatons. Or was it? A single Spark, designated B27-Arrow-10 has somehow survived.

Please join our new community on Substack!

Thank you for indulging me this special post. The retrospective posts will continue through July, and I will be back posting sermons here the second Monday in August.

Have a lovely summer,

Adam
