The dawn was just breaking, and my home was filled with the delightful cacophony of my daughter’s summer vacation. As a dutiful father, I was given a responsibility that confined me to our home but never fettered my spirit. There was a silent solace to these summer days – the kind that kept my mind steady and creative energy at its zenith. My desk, in front of the computer screen, was my sanctuary, the place where I’ve always woven my thoughts into existence. I still remember the humble days of Windows 3.1. My computer was no beast of modern technology, but it held the reins to my dreams. Back then, a rudimentary Flintstones screensaver was my only solace – a reminder of a world beyond the limitations of reality. Through every click and clatter of the keyboard, I began to understand my path, utilizing every tool within my reach to shape the ideas that had taken root in my mind. Over the years, I discovered my anti-social tendencies, but instead of viewing them as a drawback, I embraced them, letting them mold me into the person I am today – an author, a writer, and a storyteller. Once, the recording studios had been my world, my holy grail. But with the passing of time, I realized my sanctuary wasn’t confined within the walls of those studios, it was wherever I had a story to tell. Now, my mission has evolved beyond mere entertainment. It’s about connection. Throughout my life, I’ve connected with people in the most profound way – through my words. From my early endeavors of penning erotic tales to composing exhaustive emails to my team, writing has been my medium, my bridge to the world. Today, I stand on the precipice of yet another milestone. My first book, “Change Your Mind: A Guide To Dreaming,” adorns the shelves in paperback, hardcover, and even digital Kindle format. Next on the horizon, my voice breathing life into the printed words, shaping the Audible version. A rush of anticipatory anxiety tingles at the back of my mind, but it’s a feeling I’ve learned to cherish. It’s a testament to my journey, my growth, and the chapters yet to be written.
