Oganna, maiden in the balance

I absolutely love the character of Oganna. She epitomizes for me, as readers no doubt realize, an unselfish, hard-working, godly young woman. Unlike many characters in The Sword of the Dragon series, Oganna changes little despite the whirlwind of battles that come her way.

Although her role in Key of Living Fire was small, let me assure you here role in the next four books in The Sword of the Dragon series will be pivotal. She was the one constant in my original manuscript (a whopping 135,000-words that details the entire series).

Oganna is the thread that holds the puzzle of this series together. And how can we not root for her? After all, she was responsible for bringing the Megatraths into the fold!

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.
