A man who experiences loss and has a difficult time with the guilt that accompanies it, discovers that life has more than one surprise for him. [Originally written for justwriteit - justwritebits] In order for this book to contain some semblance of a coherent theme, all prompts about the Afterlife, alternate realities, dream world, etc, will be added here. It will maintain a somewhat lyrical [evocative and emotive] style, whilst containing some freedom to slipstream genres if I choose to. [I create all my covers. The only parts of this one that were pre-made were the tiny black silhouette of the man from Pixabay and the font, everything else-including the gem-was painfully created from a blank canvas. Do not use without my permission or without giving credit.]
