"The Little Children Come" Accepted for Publication

Long Story Short, the e-zine, has accepted another of my short stories for publication. This one is titled "The Little Children Come" and will appear in the e-zine's June issue. This story was my first purely allegorical piece of fiction. It deals with faith . . . particularly the innocent faith of a little child that comes to know Christ. I will post again when this story becomes available.

WELCOME TO THE WRITING SITE OF SCOTT APPLETON

"Pleasant words are as an honeycomb, sweet to the soul, and health to the bones." -Proverbs 16:24

In a world where morality is forsaken and Christ neglected, wholesome books are uncommon. The themes of my writing are love, self-sacrifice, and honor.

I see my generation turning from God to the gods of this world. I see homes torn apart in the pursuit of pleasure and self-gratification. Children are murdered by the millions every year . . . without ever seeing the world outside their mothers' wombs. Through fiction I strive to encourage those who are willing, to stand against these things and be heroes and heroines; chivalrous, gentle, full of righteous indignation, and the fear and love of their Creator.
