It’s surreal having The Alpha of Purgatory out in the real world. I didn’t think that this day would come, honestly. Many were the days where the project was stuck in the mud, hopelessly mired down in my own little confusion of thoughts. The final chapter seemed to be an impossible distance away when I put the project on hold in June of 2001. I did a comprehensive rewrite of all the existing chapters in 2008, and then did not pick it up again for ten years! I wasn’t sure that I could even write anymore, so much time had passed. I didn’t know if I could reconnect with the characters and the original idea. I truly believe that the right things always happen in life, because I can’t imagine AoP being any better than it is. This version couldn’t have been written twenty years ago.
