    About this ebook

    Josh’s life was good. His best buddy lived down the street. They grew up together, went to school together. Helping each other out with their chores made them fast and fun. Camping out was always a high point of any season. Then the accident happened, or was it an accident? Now Josh’s life is his nightmare. His nightmare is fire. The scar burned into his face by that fire burns even deeper into his soul. It fills him with fear and consumes his ability to function. Will it destroy Josh or can he find a way to move beyond the fire?

    I retired after 24 years of teaching science and math in secondary schools and college. During that time I taught over 5000 students and came to know them and their problems well. I wrote all my own worksheets and tests, and, in desperation, even reading materials for my classes. I also took pictures and wrote for the newspaper for 17 years including a weekly nature column.

      My wife, Gin, once knocked gently on my head, as if it were a door. “Hello,” she kept saying. “Hello. Who’s in there?” She and our therapist, Dr. Sherby, laughed a little about this, so I did, too. What fun. Keep knocking on my head like that, like i

      1. He walked into the room, leaning hard on a cane, and hung his leather jacket on the back of his chair. He was big at the middle; buttons on his sweater vest hung tough across his belly, and he wore a T-shirt under his vest, which I thought was fun
