I am just your average person who once upon a time had an idea for a story. With over a decade removed from any sort of creative writing, I opened up my laptop and began to write. From there a story emerged of a man so hungry for fame and fortune, that he was willing to throw everything away to feed the need. When an experiment goes wrong, he is faced with ridiculous scenarios he has to overcome to make things right in the world. It is called "Playing God With A New World". It was a fun project and was well received by friends, family and coworkers. It is a fast paced sci-fi comedy adventure story. The kind where you never know what is going to happen next, you cant put it down, your hands are cramping from how tightly you are holding the book. It is also the type of book where my wife stopped in the middle and told me quite concerned "Oh no, my parent's are going to read this!". This was not because of how terrible it was, but because of the dry, crude humor and ridiculous scenarios that the main character get's himself into. It is available for purchase or download on Amazon for the time being.
I have since started a sequel called "False Prophets". The book picks up where the first one ended, and I will be sure to dream up the craziest situation I can think of to make you blush and laugh. If you take the time to give either a try, please let me know what you think. I am always looking for constructive criticism.
