Evolution Cynicism

by Alp Mortal

Meeting the man of your dreams is a bit like playing the lottery and the chances are about the same ... fourteen million to one! Danny runs into Jack on his way out of a club as Jack is realising that he's hit nothing tonight on his lottery ticket of love. Life takes a turn for them both as cynicism evolves into hope. Is it possible, for once, that they both got lucky and hit the jackpot?

About the author

I'm English by birth, from the Isle of Wight, living in Newport, spending part of the year in the USA, co-managing The Carter Seagrove Project LLC - an independent publishing house, incorporated in the State of Indiana.

I was 51 years old in 2016. I only started writing in 2009, proving, I suppose, that it is never too late. I didn't think about publishing until late 2012, now, nearly four years later, I'm even more energized by the process than ever before.

I'm a qualified English teacher, specializing in teaching English as a second language (TEFL), though I don't do much of that now. In the distant past, I taught software skills. In the very distant past, I was a project manager on big IT projects and at the very beginning of my career, I was an Internal Auditor. I have degrees in Internal Auditing, Computer Auditing and Project Management. I'm studying for my degree in Sustainable Development at the moment. Renewable energy is what really interests me.

I'm a member of The Society of Authors, The Society for Editors and Proofreaders and The Independent Author Network.

I have no great philosophy except "energy follows intention" and "honour your gifts". These two principles keep me sane, very happy and exceedingly busy!

Reviews

[D · Rating 5 out of 5]

The cynicism felt at what we expect life to be and how life really turns out was brilliantly done. It was very humorous and had me laughing but at the same time I could sympathize with the main character. The evolution as the main character meets up with a younger man who brings energy back to his life was very sweet and demonstrates how although life doesn't always turn out like we expect, the ride is always well worth it.

I loved the comparison of meeting someone new to buying a lottery ticket, it's taking a chance and you don't know if you will get any numbers or how many you will get. This one hit the jackpot!
