Round 2 With Author J.W. Garrett






Winston - It’s been almost a year since I last talked to author, J.W. Garrett, and I’m excited and honored to say she’s back and not just for part II of our interview but with a brand-new book as well.

“A good friend once told me that true heros don't stand in the sun with a symbol on their chest, cape flying in the breeze for all to see." Fears proclaimed as he kept clapping. "No, they prefer to use the darkness ... the shadows. They are unassuming, and they walk amongst us every day. Who are we?" he asked again, this time louder than before.”
John Darryl Winston, IA: Initiate

“He remembered what his mother would say to herself when Bearn would come home and had clearly been drinking. Yea though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, “I will fear no evil.” “Stop!”
John Darryl Winston, IA: B.O.S.S.

“It was easy, and he knew, he was different somehow: in his mind, invincible.”
John Darryl Winston, IA: B.O.S.S.
