Wake Up Call

by James Pyle

Todd Timmons was your average high school senior, working late nights at a run down diner to support himself and his mother. That is until Todd wakes up, in what appears to be a hospital, with no idea how he got there. His dreams are troubling, his mother is no where to be found, and his doctors give him very little information on the car accident that brought him there. Todd will soon discover that he is in no ordinary hospital, and that he is no longer an average 17 year old. Todd is a Psiot, and the car accident awoke his latent psychic abilities. Can he trust those who claim to be able to help him, or will his new found abilities force him onto a trajectory he can't control?

About the author

James Pyle spent a very long time, and a lot of money, in the pursuit of three marginally useful degrees at two private, and expensive, universities in Southern California. After many of years of rejection from major publishers, he finally decided to take the advice of others and digitally self-publish. The Minding the Heavens series is his first foray into that world and he hopes you enjoy it.

James has worked variously at a driving range, pizza place, concert and sporting venues, a gym, several bookstores, several movie theatres, a video game company, a legal publishing company, an advertising agency, and an electronics store. He has also spent time as a TA, a freelance writer, a freelance editor, an English professor, and a college administrator.

Despite the rampant divorce rate, James married his high-school sweetheart and they have since gone on to have three children.
