Hey everybody. It's been a minute. I just published the start of something new. I've been working on this for over a year now. It started as a project to reconnect with my own inner child, but over time, that child developed what I can only describe as a life of it's own, and, lately, I'm not so much writing about him, rather, he talks and I listen, if that makes sense. He even has his own name, background, experiences, history, etc. Initially, I was having him interact with various literary characters - The Little Prince, Merlin, The Childlike Empress, Sara Crewe, etc. - but eventually it became clear he wanted to tell his own story, and that's what I let him do now. Turns out he has a lot to share, and it's a voice I think is much needed in the world today. Hopefully I can finish this project and bring him into the world before I run out of time on this planet. Hope you like it. Let me know what you think.
