Author’s Note
I’d like to tell you that this whole story was completely written by me, from my brain, my own imagination, but I tell you, while writing this book, more often than not, when I sat quietly, or took a walk along a riverbank, or was driving my car, letting go of the machinations of thought, […]

Extreme and Extraordinary Times*
Everyone would probably agree that we are experiencing unusual times, scary times you might say. Times filled with fear of the future. Where are we headed?

We are horrified by something tragic like the attacks in Paris. How can we not be? Seeing those who would slaughter innocents is beyond our comprehension. Trying to make rational sense of it, trying to understand the cause, may be an exercise in frustration. Whatever happens next, give yourself a break from the news. Get […]
