“What cuts like a knife and draws no blood? Time, baby, time.” - The opening line from my novel, set in the coastal wilderness of Big Sur.

In my senior year of high school, my father died in a car crash on a road trip to Medina. Years later I discovered one of his letters to a friend: “Life goes on fast, so no time to retrospect. That is why I am going to California just to explore myself.” He was going to Big Sur.

Epigraph: “Maybe we’re not drowning. Maybe we’re surfing.” - Karl Schroeder, Futurist
This theme runs through the entire book from its startling start to its spectacular finale. The message:
Embrace the absurdity of life & take a bold leap of faith.
Trust that even in our darkest hour, the tempest brings forth the barrel - life’s ultimate call to adventure - challenging us to paddle out to sea & meet our destiny.

DEDICATION: "To the misfits & mavericks, outcasts & outliers, rebels, poets, artists & dreamers, to the lost & wandering souls who belong to no tribe."

If you’ve ever felt out of place, like you don’t quite belong & don’t feel seen or heard… I write for YOU.

I write for the underdog.

I write for the broken hearted.

For those whose hearts have been broken & those with hardened hearts that need breaking.
