Sneak peek at some "Into the Fray" quotes and Facebook photos

All this week I'm going to be putting up quotes from my new book on my Facebook page. But I thought it would be fun to give a sneak preview to all my oldest fans who might still be connected to Ye Olde Burning Hearts Revolution. 
Feel free to post these on your own Facebook if you would like, and I hope you enjoy the book!

“And just because a talking donkey tells you something doesn’t mean it’s true.”
Matt Mikalatos, Imaginary Jesus
tags: humor

“When the stars and the moon met, a song began among the moonside Kakri. “Where is the fountain which brought joy to the city, clean and clear at its heart?” There were no instruments, just voices. The starside Kakri answered, also in song, “It has been carried away, the water spilled to the sand, the water given to the sun.” The song, beautiful and strange, reached out to Jason like the tendrils of a plant opening in the morning dew. He felt himself alive, transported, and filled with a deep, melancholy sadness.”
Matt Mikalatos, The Crescent Stone

“The fact that you love your dad so much is a sure sign of how much he loved you. He’s not here now, but accept the love that comes from the people around you. Let them be his sky lantern back to you. Let them share their love, and let that be a reminder of his. No one will ever love you quite the way your father did, but many people will see in you some of the same qualities and beautiful bits that he did. Love is as strong as death. As inevitable, as powerful, as eternal. It can’t be escaped. It can’t be avoided. It won’t be forgotten. And when death is gone, love will remain.”
Matt Mikalatos, Sky Lantern: The Story of a Father's Love for His Children and the Healing Power of the Smallest Act of Kindness
