In The Blink of an Eye: A Journey Through Time

About this ebook
This book is a young adult fantasy novel in which a young man of 16 is having a hard time getting along with others; he is being bullied and his father is absent from his life. One day he decides he has put up with enough and stands up to his bully but during the fight he is knocked out cold. The young man, named Cam, wakes up to find out that he has travelled back in time to the days of knights and castles, and all of the things that made him nerdy and unwanted make him a great leader in the past. As the story progresses, Cam leads the people who rescued him to fight the oppression that has kept them on the run and fearing for their lives. There are a lot of great references to 1980's culture and what it is like to be a young person.

I have been driven to become the best possible writer I could be from a young age. At six I got a toy typewriter and I would spend my allowance on things like a thesaurus or blank paper to draw and make stories on. Every day after school in elementary I remember walking a mile to visit the library and take out books on mouse detectives or invisible ten year-olds. I remember a book I read in grade five about a young girl whose mother refused to leave their high-rise apartment. I have had some success with poetry and magazine articles, but what I really want to do is write books, and I have completed two. One is already available in many places and the other needs some fine-tuning. The second book I wrote is a novel about life in British Columbia in a small town not unlike the one I grew up in, though I grew up in Alberta. At the moment I make my living setting up stages for rock concerts and I get a small disability pension which I hope to one day cancel and live only by my own means. I was diagnosed with bipolar disorder/manic depression at the age of 18 and had a very hard time until I came to accept that diagnosis as fact. For any more I guess you have to buy the book!
