I spent my youth in the land of make believe. School was a bore, and growing up in the "Boonies" without cable television forced me to use my imagination.

Hello Sparkle,

Sorry for such a long delay, i must admit I haven't logged on in a while. Unfortunately, the Kickstarter was a bust. But I am going ahead and creating the audiobooks myself over the next few months. Whill 1 is already available on Amazon and Audible, and I am currently in the process of having Whill 2 produced. To my knowledge, they will be available in MP3.

Compared to an average night of cable TV or today's video games they are nothing. Glad you liked the book!(less)

Quotes by Michael James Ploof  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“Tragedy is a storm we all must weather, my friend. To let it break you is the worst tragedy of all. Instead we stand tall in defiance and wear a smile when all reason for smiling has left us.”
Michael James Ploof, Whill of Agora

“When he asked who his parents were, Abram had only said, “I will tell you when you are ready, and I will judge when that time is. I know that it is the one answer you seek to know most, but you must trust me; some things in this world must not be known until the time is right. Bear no hard feelings for me because of this. I only do it to protect you.”
Michael James Ploof, Whill of Agora

“But does it not take an evil mind to make a weapon out of a hammer? Would you see every good man stripped of his hammer because a few would use them as clubs?”
Michael James Ploof, Champions of the Gods
