Ultrina stared at Mongen with flat eyes. She had no desire to go to Renate to ply a trade which had been outlawed for longer than she had been alive, yet she saw the writing on the wall. It was what the King wanted and thus she, a subject, would do it or die. “When …

Holy Land – Chapter One – 20 minute read
The complete first chapter of Holy Land. Here you go! Happy reading. Chapter One Ultrina hitched her scarf a little closer to her face and considered the path before her.

Mental Resistance
Whether we admit it or not, we’ve all dealt with mental resistance. My favorite way of having resistance is productive procrastination.
