I work a full-time day job, and for me it releases the stress of the day. I can travel the roads of the past as I write and live life through the eyes of the characters created to bring the story alive with adventure and new roads untraveled.

Having awoken on the darkest of nights, not aware of how I had arrived here and unable to find my way out. I find myself bumping into the headstones of ancient graves. The headstones mostly of wood with some carved from rock were illuminated by the light of fireflies dancing through the night, I stumble into a hole, a grave and written on the headstone of that grave was my own name.
