About "Stepping In!"
"The journey is the classroom; the challenge is the teacher; and the choice we make is the pen that wrtes our own personal story -- Off we go!"
Christopher thought he was an ordinary teenager.
He was wrong.
Five hundred years before his birth, a prophecy foretold the arrival of a Champion for the Cosmos—someone capable of stepping across worlds, confronting impossible enemies, and changing the fate of existence itself.
Christopher never asked to be that person.
But when his life collides with strange powers, alternate dimensions, dangerous creatures, and forces he barely understands, Christopher discovers that becoming a hero isn't about being fearless. It's about what you do when you're afraid. Choice is everyone's ultimate power!
Across time, space, and worlds beyond imagination, Christopher faces challenges that reveal extraordinary abilities of infinite power—and force him to discover something even more important: who he is becoming.
Friendship. Family. Love. Perseverance. Choice. Each propel Christopher into his prophesied future and becomes part of a journey far greater than Christopher ever imagined.
Stepping In: The Epic Adventures of Young Christopher! begins a five-book fantasy and science-fiction series filled with extraordinary worlds, dangerous enemies, incredible transformations, and one teenager discovering that sometimes the biggest step you can take is simply choosing to step in.
Five books. Fifteen interconnected adventures. One extraordinary journey.
For Christopher -- "The Only Way Back--Is Forward!"
Off We Go!
A teenager's story is never the same!
In the life of a teenager, anything is possible! Choice has a way of being the catalyst for chaos to rule the day, or for success to become possible. The path to success, however, is seldom a straight line! The choices we make today set the stage for the challenges we must face tomorrow. And for most teens, this is a lesson that is often learned the hard way--In the moment, and without the incorporation of critical thought. Therein lies the greatest risk in a teenager's life.
Throughout this book there are lessons to be learned that follow Christopher's path to his ultimate future. And in the real world, each of these lessons provide an opportunity to connect our teens to the adults in their lives! Whether purchasing this book strictly for personal entertainment or as a gift for someone else, the lessons learned act as a key with the power to open the door to communication with your teen that may be lacking and necessary to that teen's safety and success. Teenagers are why I write!
In Stepping In, understanding the importance that Choice plays in the development of becoming the Champion described within the 500 year old Prophecy is truly important and will be on display at length throughout each Level Christopher must embrace. And with each step into the beyond, a new power is acquired and a new strength of character provides the necessary environment for personal growth and understanding to take hold.
The story is fun, action-packed, humorous, and extremely teenager! I am enjoying the process of writing it and I hope you enjoy it as well!
The only way back--is Forward!
Off We Go!
