Finding Inspiration through Seclusion – God Bore this Day Before You

“God bore this day before you and together you bear it now.”

M.N. Stroh

This is perhaps one of the most profound truths I wanted to get across to readers when I set out to write the Tale of the Clans series. It’s something I’ve sought to wrap my head around for most of my life.
