Introduction

There is a bonding of auras, a kismet or karma that makes one certain they have known someone before, that their destinies are somehow interlocked, their paths will surely cross. It is felt when eyes meet and, inexplicably, there is a mutual understanding of souls that have known each other before--of times past and times that have not yet happened--but will someday. It is something that cannot be explained, only felt. It is from time beginning to time eternal. It is a destiny that can only be fulfilled when it chooses--when the time is right, it will be consummated. There is longing in a brief moment, sadness in departure, mystery in a look or glance across the room--and there is knowledge that this was meant to be. The feeling and understanding is so strong, you know you will meet again, and surely the goodbyes will end and become a beginning. It is a certainty that gives us patience, and in that patience is wisdom, wisdom that knows the time is not yet ripe. Destiny cannot be rushed or jumped into headlong. It must be measured, trusted and listened to, as the heart must be, for true fulfillment takes time and the journey must be slow and arduous--to be worthwhile, it must be earned and is all the sweeter for it.

Hi Tina Fausett,

I just finished reading your story Nightchild and I loved it so much. Your writing is amazing, and I kept thinking how cool it would look as a comic.

I really loved the scene where Nate Stevens discovers Blythe MacLarren's scarred memories and becomes obsessed with finding the truth behind her painful and recurring nightmares. The emotional intensity and the mystery surrounding her past would make for a gripping comic panel, capturing the essence of the story's suspense and romance.

I’m a commissioned artist, and I’d love to draw your story into a comic/manga. No pressure though, I just think your work would look awesome in comic form.

You can check out some of my recent work on my DeviantArt (Username - Ev3Verse). If you’re interested, please message me on Discord (Username - Eve_Verse) so we can bring the story to life visually. I'll be waiting to hear from you!

Regards,
Evee

jo987_123: This is a good story, but it needs a good editor to go through this iteration and fix the mistakes. The pov changes from 1st person to 3rd person, often, and sometimes within one sentence.
