A little about “Littluns”:
"Littluns" is about a choice we must all make in our lives for The Light or the darkness.
Littluns means “little people who live within.” From the very secret and hidden inner crater walls of Powder Mountain to their homes and businesses built into the environment and community of Hollow Hills, Littluns symbolize all that is good and true. Littluns measure about three feet in height, give or take a few inches, and are usually well rounded in appearance, due to their insatiable appetites and the many social events that provide good reasons for good eating. They have very large ears, three fingers and a thumb, and furry feet with thick soles, eliminating the need for socks and shoes.
Every Littlun is taught, from a very young age, that stealing is wrong and no Littlun would even consider such an act, and telling any lie would not even occur to them. It just wouldn’t be Littlun.
The end of days begins when five Littluns journey down from their secret mountaintop homeland on what should be a cautious, but pleasant ‘Scavenger Hunt’ outing.
…but nothing will ever be the same.
Imagine innocence of Light, the meek and good among us being unexpectedly consumed into a void of darkness.
Imagine a world gone wrong as darkness overwhelms the Light - offering little hope in a world gone wrong.
Imagine circumstances beyond your control from which your life will inexplicably never ever be the same.
Imagine being stripped of your identity with no past, present, or future while wandering misplaced with a tortured disability and terrifying existence, all within an empty space of nothingness.
What could you do - where would you go - how might you survive – can there be any hope in hopelessness? Imagine being in such a dark place and how you might find ANY truth, peace, love, hope, joy, enlightenment, and your heart’s desire in the face of such adversity?
“Littluns” becomes a personal journey and experience that can be found within the 411 pages of “Littluns AND THE BOOK OF DARKNESS” stirring every emotion. It is a place where one can find inspirational reason and fortitude to celebrate the hope and uncompromising determination of the human spirit.
And then there’s the matter of our ‘Breaking all the Rules’ on the road to publishing “Littluns.” But that’s another story.
