Sometimes in life a series of images, thoughts, or ideas
run through your mind. As a writer, I find I must write them, or they will
haunt me.
I wrote The Between Times after being inundated with so
much negativity in our current political climate. Many of the decisions that
have been made by the Supreme Court and the Congress, as well as statements
made by political figures, inspired this view of a possible future. It is a
path that we might find ourselves walking, if we continue along the paths that
some of these remarks and decisions are pointing us in.
Though that world is a dark place for many, it also
contains a bit of magic in the form of a young woman named Jewell. I always
believe that life can be made better if not by actual magic and miracles than
by the power of the people if they join their energy to create a better world.
