5 Elements Of A Good Adventure Novel
Adventure novels are an exciting form of literary entertainment. This type of fiction often takes readers to faraway and unusual locations (real or imagined) while providing a strong sense of yearning to find out what happens next.
Stories of adventure can range from bank robberies to government conspiracies to mystery detectives and exotic treasure hunts to heroic rescues. Although many people would not actually want to participate or be a by-stander in such situations, experiencing them through the imagination is very alluring.

5 Reading Tools
When it comes to reading accessories, there are a plethora of options. In the days before e-readers and tablets, these accessories primarily consisted of bookmarks and magnifying glasses. Today, the options are wide and assorted.
Avid readers have likely encountered a few book and e-reader accessories that were total flops. For whatever reason, the design was not as functional as advertised or after a few uses the item was deemed useless. To help my fans avoid unnecessary purchases and just jump straight to the best products, here’s the Leif Erickson list of five favorite reading tools.

Whiterock
I received a lot of positive feedback from my last post, where I included an excerpt of my novel, ‘Hidden Trails.’ Today, by request, here is the introduction and first couple paragraphs to the first ‘Ghost Town’ novel titled: ‘The Whiterock Incident Part I – The Journal.’ This book is the first that launches a nine part series that will leave you haunted for days after reading. Enjoy the first part of the novel and head over to www.leifericksonwriting.com where you can purchase the first three books in the ‘Ghost Town’ series.
