About me

I have been dabbling in writing for nearly 15 years now in various genres including short stories, longer stories/short novels, poetry, prose and song lyrics.

I love putting some of myself into my characters whether it be personality traits, my beliefs or my ideals. What fascinates me is that as time goes on and you age you look back and notice how your stories from when you first began writing seem so immature and totally cliched, and that you would re-write a totally different story if you could. I suppose that is because when you put yourself into a story, that is where you are at that point in your life. Over the years you grow and change and so your stories grow with you.

I like writing with themes that span Christian, Country, Western, thrillers, soft supernatural, redemptive ideals and a little sci-fi.

Thanks for reading....

Moses Was In The Desert

I finished watching the re-make of The Ten Commandments (with Dougray Scott) this morning and felt inspired when this song started composing itself in my head.

Moses Was In The Desert
by Christopher Hartfiel © 03/07/2011

Moses was in the desert, leading the people out
Amidst the cloud and fire, there became a shout
Crying, “Holy, Holy, Holy, and Holy is the Lord
Holy, Holy, Holy, and Holy is the Lord
Holy, Holy, Holy, and Holy is the Lord.”

With timbrels and dancing, Israel praised the Lord
To celebrate His Victory, o’er the Egyptian sword
Crying, “Holy, Holy, Holy, and Holy is the Lord
Holy, Holy, Holy, and Holy is the Lord
Holy, Holy, Holy, and Holy is the Lord.”

“Who there is like you, O’Lord amongst the gods
Who there is like you, Glory in your Holiness
Great in power and wonder, and Holy is the Lord
Fearful in praises, and Holy is the Lord
Holy, Holy, Holy, and Holy is the Lord.”

You shall reign forever
You shall reign forever
The Lord shall reign forever
Yahweh shall reign forever.
