This is my first book, but not the first attempt to write. Long ago, I wrote a short story, “What Dreams May Come,” which was inspired by an episode of the Twilight Zone. I thought about sending it to Readers Digest but never got around to it.
My private life, I keep private, but not to the point of becoming reclusive. I’m just careful as to whom I talk to and what I reveal.
The genesis of my story started in late 2014. I was a security guard at an auto dealership working the graveyard shift. This gave me plenty of time to look up at the night sky, where I would see the magnificent blackness of space. For some years, it had been my desire that when I die, my personality is released to go among the stars and explore. This death and the resulting ability to “go where no man has gone before” (thank you, Gene Roddenberry) is where Alex came from. A Fire from a Distant Light is his story.view less
