About the author

Intro

Camdyn Jones has had a fear of mirrors for as long as he can remember, which is most of his childhood years. He has always done everything he can to avoid them as much as possible. His mother used to tell him that mirrors were portals to other dimensions, her belief in that statement among other things is what eventually resulted in her being institutionalized. His mother always stressed that mirrors were particularly dangerous in rooms that were not properly lit. According to her, a mere glance from the corner of your eye at a mirror in the dark could be harmless, or it could result in one being pulled into some random dimension that they would more than likely never return from.

As a child Camdyn avoided fun houses as if they were as deadly as the plague, he simply felt that they featured too many mirrors to be worth the risk. He never learned to drive because it would have required looking into mirrors. Seeing his reflection in bodies of water or in windows has never bothered him since there seemed to be nothing dangerous about them. His mother’s warnings about mirrors on the contrary are why he has never actually used one. He only uses public restrooms when absolutely necessary and keeps his head down while washing his hands.

Life as he knows it is about to change for Camdyn Jones and he will have to face his fear, not only to save himself but to save others as well. In the process he will discover things he never thought possible, and do things he has only ever dreamed of. Camdyn Jones is about to be thrust into an extraordinary journey from fear to fortitude.

His parents were at it again, he could hear them arguing. While not a nightly occurrence, his parents arguing certainly wasn’t uncommon; and it was always about the same thing. Camdyn’s mother Allisyn has the sincere belief that mirrors are portals to other dimensions and doesn’t hold back when it comes to warning her son about the potential scenarios involved with them. She has warned him many times not to stare into mirrors for too long, and not to ever look at a mirror in a dark room. His father sometimes takes exception to this, but Camdyn doesn’t understand why his father is so obsessed with convincing his mother that she is wrong. What if she isn’t, what if it’s not her imagination? If everything Allysin Jones believes about mirrors is actually true then Camdyn has legitimate
