Hey everybody,
Today I decided to tell you guys about the story that I'm writing. The story is untitled for right now but it is about an African American Clarvoyaint/Empath/Psychic named Dvina Taylor. I noticed in the sci-fi genre there isn't a lot of African American protagonists. It could be because most of us aren't into it but i doubt that seriously. I also think that if there were more African American's writing these stories we could introduce more of my culture to think outside of the box and not be considered "weird" but anyway. I havent decided if I want to make her half angel and demon or half demon and human. Some people act a lil funny when you try to add religion into the mix but you can't have "good" without "bad" rite? But either way, demons and religious elements are involved because i'm basing the bad guys off of the seven deadly sins and the seven (or nine) circles of hell. I plan on doing research with Dante's Inferno as a guide. Since this is book 1 (i think i want to make it a series of each sin being a separate entity) I need to do more research on psychic abilities because of course she has to evolve as a character. Anyway, Im babbling but this is the beginning of the process. Toodles
