She Rode Away is my first novel. If you need a reminder that good people are everywhere, bad people can change, and justice will prevail if we choose to make it so, you'll love this book.
For the sake of creative honesty, I shifted my focus from theology to humanity. I've grown weary of hearing my opinions. Not because I don't believe them, I'm tired of telling them. I'd rather tell a story.
I'll never forget when my third-grade teacher, Ms. Aslaksan of Buena Terra Elementary School in Buena Park, California, held up my fifty-word essay about the history of Thanksgiving for the entire class to see. She commended me for my excellent choice of words. At eight years old, the one thing I knew about myself was that I was a storyteller. Why? Because Ms. Aslaksan said so. That's why!
I have a confession. Michael, one of the main characters, might be an idealized version of me ;) Upon realization, I embraced the probability and let the story flow downstream. Hat's off to any writer who can keep themselves out of a story.
Thanks for your precious time!
