Past Becomes Myth

I'm finishing the writing for a story that has been growing in my mind for over fifteen years. It began as a personal struggle, turned into a call to action to be a writer, and now I'm weaving it into a tale that will represent the heart of why I'm a storyteller.

When I was younger, I began to write because telling stories was a way to battle my fears. As I grew and changed, the story changed, because I was still trying to understand why I had those fears. Now that those fears that were so prevalent as a child have been alleviated by adulthood and experience, I'm able to look back at that time and finally work out everything I wanted to say about that situation. It's quite freeing.

The first draft will be done within the next week, and then out to my awesome group of editors (victims). I'm aiming for publication before October. I'm very excited to bring this personal story to the world.

Stay Tuned!

Patrick
