What Inspired You to Write Your Book?
I wanted to bring awareness to God and the Christian faith. I realized there are many young adults who heard about God but know nothing about Him or His ways, so I decided to write an entertaining version of Christian values. Written in a way the teens of today can relate too – Good versus Evil.
How Did You Come up With Your Characters?
I wanted characters that had personalities. James has an edge to him and a bit of a temper, while Joe is laid back and easy going, and Hayden is innocent and confused.

By some miracle, I made it to school in time and headed to my assigned locker. I received a letter with my locker and combination on it weeks ago, along with my class schedule. I tried to open the locker using the combination they gave me, but it wouldn’t open. I tried again, but no luck. I spun the dial around repeatedly and lined it up on zero, then tried the combination again; still, no luck. I was so frustrated.
I looked around and no one else had a problem – figures, it’s just me. I better stop at the office and let them know about this stupid locker, I said, as I kicked it. I quickly glanced around to see if there was a teacher available that I could tell instead of walking all the way to the office, but found none. They are always around when you don’t want them to be, but once you need them, you can’t find even one. I turned around to leave, and was pushed back into the lockers by some idiot running down the hall. I almost spilled my book bag that already had a few books in it that dad bought for my classes.
That’s when I saw them. Walking down the hall in my direction was two of the most gorgeous specimens in the world, identical in every way and walking in unison toward me. They were confident, well built, and gorgeous. It felt like they were walking in slow motion just for me. They both had on matching powder blue T-shirts that looked a little tight, a pair of faded black jeans and a pair of boots that looked like snake. Why they dressed alike I don’t know, but it definitely raised my blood pressure.
I realized my mouth was open and my jaw was probably hitting the floor, so I made a conscious effort to close it. As they walked by me, one of them smiled and winked, never breaking stride. Right then, I melted into the lockers, allowing them to hold me up. Did you see that? I whispered breathlessly, watching them walk down the hall and around the corner. Wait! Did he just wink at me – no way! I must be imagining it or something. Why would he wink at me?
As soon as they turned the corner and were out of sight, I knew my day was complete. I have died and gone to heaven. There isn’t anything left to do today except go home. Then reality hit, and I realized I still needed to tell someone about my stupid locker, so I headed for the main office.
I pulled open the heavy office door and saw the twins standing there. I froze in the doorframe only feet from them, content on being there forever. However, the door had other plans, like closing and bumping me in the rear. I lost my balance and fell forward. I dropped my book bag and landed in the arms of one of the twins as he turned around. Almost as if, the whole thing was planned. I thought I was going to die right there.
“Hello!” he said to me, while standing me up.
“Hi! I…I…I’m so…so sorry,” I stuttered
“No problem. I’m Joseph Sparks,” he said confidently, while looking into my eyes. “And this is my brother James.”
“Hi!” I said, trying to regain my composure and gather my things. “My name is Hayden, Hayden Heyer, welcome to Henderson High.”
Just then, the office secretary came back into the room with the boy’s class schedules. She informed them that they would be split up in all their classes except for lunch and study hall. She asked which one was James and handed him his schedule, then handed the other to Joseph, who was the one who caught me.
“Well, it was nice meeting you, Hayden. I hope to see you again,” James said, as he ran his hand through his gorgeous dark blond hair. Then smirked and lightly punched Joseph in the arm, before leaving. I could tell Joseph was a little embarrassed, so I pretended to look for an available person behind the counter while buttoning the top button on my vest. I didn’t realize it was even open until that moment.
“Well, um, I better get going myself,” Joseph said, nervously.
“Yeah, me too,” I said, as I took a deep breath and backed into the office counter. “See you later!”
I watched him walk out the door and intentionally waited for the door to close behind him before turning around. I was hoping they would come back for some reason, so I could see them again, but they didn’t.
It took a few moments before I realized why I came to the office in the first place – oh yeah, my locker. I explained my situation to the office secretary and she asked Mr. Hinkle, the Biology teacher, to assist me with my locker problem. We walked all the way back to where it was and he tried to open it using the combination I was given. I was thrilled to see that it didn’t work for him either. I was not crazy after all!
We walked back to the office, explained the problem to the office secretary, and requested that another locker be assign to me. The new one was on the same floor as my last one, but a little further down the hall and closer to the stairs. I went to look for it and tried the new combination to see if it actually worked, and it did. Next, I looked at my schedule to see where I was expected and glanced at the time – 8:45. The bell was about to ring for first hour.
