Painted From Memory is my first novel. Receiving the iUniverse Rising Star award, Painted From Memorycontinues receive favorable reviews on Amazon. Imagine if you found yourself traveling through multiple realities and dimensions, experiencing different versions of your life? How would you find and settle in the right one? This is the problem that faces Mickey Anderson, a successful artist, who becomes trapped in an ever changing, multi-dimensional reality with his childhood sweetheart, Sylvia, who he hasn’t seen since that one, perfect summer nearly twenty-five years ago. While navigating through a seemingly random dimension, they discover they’re married with children. It’s the life they’ve both dreamed of. But it doesn’t last. Mickey and Sylvia find themselves bombarded by constant reality shifts; shifts that rob them of what they thought they had and cruelly tease them of what a life together could be. As they discover the cause of the shifts, Mickey must find a way to harness a power he never knew he had or be forced to live out multiple realities that never deliver the love and the life he always wanted.
Now Available "The Diner"
How far would you go to stay with your true love forever? One man’s answer to that question threatens to destroy a town and all souls in it, unless Dan Scheffelin can find a way to stop him. Still reeling from the devastating losses of his wife and parents, Dan returns to his hometown and to the diner his parents owned, to find that while things look the same on the surface, inside are buried secrets. Strange encounters seem to follow him, notably his exchanges with a waitress who looks eerily like his late wife and who shares memories of that happy life he’s lost. As Dan struggles to uncover the mysteries of his hometown and of the diner, he must confront his past and the love he thought he had, to win the love he desires.
My second novel The Dineris now available. It's a great story inspired by ordering a simple cup of coffee. After you read it, you may have an overwhelming desire to pop into your local diner for a cup. A few years ago, I released my first novel Painted From Memory. It continues to get favorable reviews and praise - what a great feeling that is. I've been published in various magazines and newsletters including WODTalk and ION Indie Music Authority. I enjoy sharing my humorous perspective on life, music and staying fit. One thing I know for sure is that life can always use a little more laughter and mystery, plus it’s required for a lifetime Chicago Cubs fan.
From a very young age, I've experienced paranormal phenomena from ghostly encounters to eerie psychic connections. They always leave me thinking, "What if?" It's that "What if" that my novels are born from.
