A Sheep in Wolf's Clothing (eBook, ePUB)

Beschreibung

Timothy's a sheep who dreams of being a wolf. He runs away to become one, but the grass is not greener and events turn deadly. Timothy Sheep is bored with the peaceful Meadows and wants to be someone else. His parents don't understand him and he's picked on by bullies. He dreams of becoming a fearless wolf and teaching everyone a lesson, then he finds a wolf-skin ... Through humorous adventures and misadventures, plus some creative lying and bluffs, Timothy joins the Wolf Pack. He finds 'clothes do make the sheep'. Dressing and acting like a wolf transforms him into one. After he's accepted, he discovers other wannabe-wolves have slipped in, too. Soon, Timothy's enjoying the wild-life, howling and playing with friends as late as he wants. He's living his dreams. But dreams become nightmares as the wolves' brutal nature is revealed. With wolves killing wolves, can a 'SHEEP IN WOLF'S CLOTHING' survive? Too ashamed to return home to the Meadows and Flock, can Timothy protect his new girl or any of his wannabe friends? Soon he's changed irrevocably as he's forced to fight for his life. Will he live to learn any lessons from his wolf experiences? Humorously parodying gang involvement and its violence, this story is suitable for Middle-Grade, Young-Adult, and Christian audiences. It has great action and some wolf-violence. One brief scene intended to discourage drug use.

Autor

I was a prolific reader of Sci Fi and Fantasy books from 5th grade on. I always wanted to be a writer, but chose a "practical" career in civil engineering. Retired (mostly) now, I am writing and trying to realize my old dreams. I am an avid past actor in Musical Theater, Gunfight Groups, and Renaisance Faires as well.

I've received some excellent feedback on my stories that has encouraged me to continue. I Twitter more than I should and I support other writers as @Greymuir. I have one story self-published, one about to be completed and ready for editors, and several stories partially complete.

Telling my children bedtime stories over the years inspired me to write "A Sheep in Wolf's Clothing" . I hope the morals in the story will allow children to guard against the attraction of violence and gang activities.

I came from a large working class family of 9 kids and worked my way through college. I went on to almost complete a Masters in Structural engineering, when the pressures cost me a divorce. I ran off to a ski resort town and stayed there for a number of years. I was writing part time in those days and I have a raft of interesting stories that I never completed. Now that I am retired, I am planning to edit through those and complete them.
