Why I write about the fallen

For years now, I’ve been writing in the spaces between fantasy and faith — not quite Christian fiction, not quite secular fantasy, but something deeper and more mythic. Something that reflects the mystery of spiritual warfare, the vulnerability of the human heart, and the staggering question many of us wrestle with:
“Is anyone beyond redemption?”
This week, I finally put the finishing touches on a story cycle that has taken decades of dreaming, rewriting, expanding, and refining. Not a series, not seven books, but one single epic — a mythic saga called Books of the Fallen.
And at the center of it is a truth too powerful to ignore:
Even the fallen — no matter how far they’ve fallen — can still rise again.
🌙 
Where the Story Begins
The epic opens with heaven’s brightest star:
Lucifer.
Not as a caricature, not as a flat villain, but as a being whose fall fractures creation. His redemption — scandalous, shocking, unthinkable — becomes the first spark of a truth that unfolds across the entire epic:
If he can be redeemed, then anyone can.
That idea becomes the heartbeat of the whole mythos.

Where the Story Travels




Across the arc, we walk through:

• celestial realms and shadowed worlds
• angels who doubt
• demons who question
• hybrids born between worlds
• powers older than heaven itself
• lovers separated by realms
• and souls struggling to believe they have worth at all

Some return to the light.
Some cling to darkness.
Some run from both.
Some rise when no one expects it.
And some — heartbreakingly — refuse the hand extended to them.


It’s a world of fire, glory, magic, betrayal, longing, and ancient wounds… but also one where mercy keeps breaking through.

Where the Story Ends




The final arc belongs to Isadora — a girl literally born in hell who escapes, survives, and believes she will always be unworthy of love.


Her story becomes the last proof of the epic’s message:


Redemption reaches even the darkest places.


She faces one final trial — a nightmare so vivid it almost breaks her — before stepping into the life she was meant for.
A redeemed demon loves her.
An ancient evil pursues her.
And at the end, heaven itself stands still to witness her rise.


It is holy.
It is triumphant.
And it is hard-won.


Not easy redemption.
Real redemption.

Why I Wrote This Story




Because in my counseling work and in my own life, I’ve seen the extremes:

• people who think they are too broken
• people who think others are beyond saving
• people who carry shame they never deserved
• people who rise again after impossible darkness

And I’ve lived long enough to know:


Human beings are far more complex, wounded, beautiful, and redeemable than we give them credit for.


This epic is my way of exploring that truth on a cosmic scale.


Not preaching.
Not moralizing.
Just storytelling — honest, raw, mythic storytelling.
