    About this ebook

    There was a story long in the making, slow in the writing that both Eric and Kelly had been working on. Thing is, neither of them knew the other was writing it. Time, distance, experience and a leaking toilet come together to finally tell the story that both of them so wished would be told.

      The night, as most nights, was like a dream. At ten, once I’d fed the dog the last scraps off the stove. Once I’d cursed the cat for scratching up my mama’s antique furniture, then welcomed him back into my arms. Once I’d slicked my hair into a ponyt

      I have been trying to write this story for a long time now. As long as I can recall, I have wanted to write the story of a brokenhearted man. A man who wanders through life, bumping into others and finding his way, losing it again and how his broken heart moves him from one place to another. Searching, longing, reaching, trying.
