Faith

By Mark Elswick

Mark Elswick, author of the side-splitting Padman: A Dad's Guide to Buying...Those and other tales, begins his quest to dominate the eBook world.
"Faith" is an extremely suspenseful, edge-of-your-seat short story.
When an elderly neighbor calls 911 because she sees flames shooting from the Scott house, the story begins dripping with adrenaline and anticipation.
But, did she notice too late?
Danni (mom) and Pammy (18-mo. old sister) escape. Unfortunately, 6 y/o Ty is left upstairs, accidentally.
Read as the panic-stricken mother and community, which has gathered around the house, beg God for mercy, asking for some sort-of miracle. Also, the fire crew's sense of urgency is nearly unprecedented as the firefighters frantically fight to save Ty.
This is not religious nor political. It's just a passionate, fictional story about everyday life, detailing how a small word like "Faith," is so important to everything we do.
Undoubtedly, Ty will work his way into the souls of readers as the approaching flames and his cries for help thrust him into your heart.
Don't be surprised when you're reading the story and cheering for the little guy to get out, somehow.
But, will he?
And, how will he?
The fire is quickly closing in. His screams are softly heard, but deafening. . . .
Hurry!

Mark Elswick

Mark Elswick has been a teacher, tutor, sportswriter, college professor, and author. Despite overcoming a life-threatening auto accident in 1992, perseverance and dedication kept him in the writing game. The title of “author” didn’t come until late-2011 when Modern History Press (MHP) published his first book, “Padman,” a collection of 13 shorts stories. Afterward, he ventured onto the independent scene. That two-year chapter of his writing career also saw months of podcast hosting and public speaking while he was self-publishing three novels and some short stories. Elswick recently returned to MHP and his first biography is currently in the works.
