TheAlvarezChronicles

I just like to write. I am a former homicide detective with a lot of stories to tell. If you stick around you will read real stories about what it is really like to be a detective. How cases are really solved and the toll they take on everyone around them. I think those stories will surprise you. But you will also read stories about many other things. Childhood memories, on being a father, on life in general. Stick around and you might just learn more than you thought you could.

If you get a chance take a look at my story "The Body", about a murder case I worked. Or check out my "Convict Chronicles" which contains many short stories about people I have met during my career in law enforcement. Or if you want to laugh check out "Blonde Moments". That's an ongoing series about crazy things that my daughter says. You won't believe most of it. And finally if you just want to see what life here on Wattpad is like check out "Chasing Wattpad". Thanks for dropping by and I hope you have a good experience here.

I have no interest in publishing professionally (not that anybody would read me). Though to be honest I don't know if I tell myself that just to take the pressure off writing, or because it is really true. Who knows? It's a mystery. Whatever the case, that works for me right now.

Here are some of my favorite quotes:

"Find time to write. But not so much that you do not have the time to experience something worth writing about." - ME

"Life is tough. It's even tougher when you're stupid." - John Wayne

"Sometimes it's the people no one imagines anything of who do the things that no one can imagine." - from the movie Imitation Game

"The most beautiful things in life cannot be seen or even touched, they must be felt with the heart." - Helen Keller

I had originally taken a very cynical approach to describing myself. Some of you read it and probably shook your heads. Not the best way to make new friends, I agree.

So. Hello from downunder! I am one of those people who can just sit and write. It's like breathing for me. I've never shared and never felt the need to publish. It was my thing, my escape, my therapy...

I have two sons, born a year and a half apart and both on the verge of manhood. Soon they will leave the nest and I am excited thinking about where life will take them...

This got me thinking it was time to let my 'other' children go. So here I am, sending them off... I hope they encounter some amazing people in their journeys!

I have this on my wall:
"Many people hear voices when no-one is there. Some of them are called 'mad' and are shut up in rooms where they stare at the walls all day.
Others are called 'writers' and they do pretty much the same thing."
Ray Bradbury

Hello! I'm Sarah, a world-travelling, chocolate addicted, nature loving writer. My travelogue 'Adventures' is a wattpad featured story and my dystopian tale 'Survival' was featured on thePurgemovie's anarchy reading list this summer.

I'm currently working on Travel Drabbles, a piece with very short atmospheric chapters about my ongoing travels and the Survival sequel, Into Ruin is being posted on wattpad.

If you need a hand navigating the site, tips on getting noticed or improving your own stories, give me a shout, I'm more than happy to help out.

I'm lucky to be a part of such a vibrant and diverse community where I can chat with people from all corners of the world who share a love of great stories and writing.

I sincerely appreciate all new followers and supporters of my stories. I don't do follow backs for those who I've never e-met before mainly because I like to use my already crowded news feed and typically follow for users I've interacted with a bit more. I don't mean for it to come off as rude or pretentious, that's just my rational.

I generally accept reading requests, but please introduce yourself and your story :)

Happy wattpading! Don't be a stranger :)
