Why they had the agenda that they had. I never saw anything in the media that seriously addressed the fall of Lucifer. It was always told in a "Buffy the vampire" type of way. Which I thought was silly ans trivialized such a important Biblical character. I always thought it would be a great story to tell in a movie. Everyone seemed to treat this character in the Bible in a "silly" way. I decided that I would try to write a possible story that took the story seriously. I hope I accomplished that. (less)

So hopefully you've kept up with my writing and you have had a chance to get the Chronicles of the Grigori.
I am focused on a new non-Bible story series but I am always open to the Lord to give me something to write in the Biblical fiction sphere. Thanks for following my work and you take care! God bless!(less)

The Argument of Brokenness — Why Our Pain Points Beyond Us

By Donovan M. Neal“You can’t call reality broken unless you know what reality is supposed to be.”

Most of us treat our reaction to suffering as a mere emotional byproduct. We hurt, and we move on. But there is a profound logical secret hidden in your grief: You don’t just experience pain—you interpret it. You don’t just suffer—you judge. And the way you judge reality reveals a truth that the ma

Thanks Carolyn! I'm very excited! I hope we can have the audio book out next week sometime! I praise God for you and others who have supported my writing.

Carolyn Just listened to an Audio Book clip for Third Heaven- The Birth of God. Excellent! I never listened to a book before, but the reader has a great voice and did a great job!


Donovan Neal I just wanted everyone to know that book two of the Third Heaven series is well underway. Titled The Third Heaven: The Birth of God. In the next novel we will journey to see the aftermath of Lucifer's fall from Heaven, and the powerful choices that must be made to combat the greatest antagonist mankind has ever known. At 30,000 words I'm well underway. What would you do for love?"
