Ghosts

by Roman Theodore Brandt

We came here to get away, and to be in love. What we found was a lonely home in the Midwest.That's life, they tell us. That's normal. Get up, eat, wash the dishes, go to bed. Live life in the living room. When you die, you'll be buried face down on top of your father and his father, each new arrival sending the last closer to hell.

Suppose I don't want to live this way anymore?

Ghosts is the story of a man who lives in absolute boredom and exhaustion, a state of suspended animation between Kansas and Ohio. How exactly does one escape this life? By becoming a ghost.

About the author

Roman is not my legal name, but it's the name I've chosen to call myself because it sounds much more interesting than my real name. I was born nearly thirty years ago in the Midwestern frontier. I am an indie author, which makes me part of a very large group of authors who write independently of traditional publication. I have a lot of respect for authors who are able to publish traditionally, because it's a difficult business to break into that way. It takes a great deal of talent and determination.
