Excerpt

 

Everyone's life has a defining moment. For the longest time I thought mine was the crash of 2008. I was wrong, it was only the beginning.

 

I always wanted to be a teacher, that is until I taught. How messed up is that? It was the final day at Rainier High School in Seattle, Washington when I was informed my contract would not be renewed. The crash hit hard and that included the Seattle school district budget. While my fellow teachers stared off into space as their careers took a nosedive, I was secretly doing cartwheels and popping champagne. After all, I had picked the wrong career. But I wasn't worried, I had a roof over my head and a lady in my life.

 

Her name was Lourdes. For the longest time I thought our relationship was perfect, ideal. Seven months and four days to be exact. Lourdes liked things just so, and I tried to be the perfect, considerate boyfriend. I learned to tiptoe before she woke, served her favorite tea, and watched TV on mute, thank you subtitles, until she finished reading.

 

We lived in her father's rental. Lourdes kept a busy social calendar with her friends always dropping by. She was always on some dieting fad or another. I couldn't ever remember if this week we were eating Paleo or vegan, low carb or gluten free, so Lourdes controlled our menu. It was the ideal life. Until it wasn't.

Author Biography

 

I was born and raised in Burlington, Washington. A little farming town 70 miles north of Seattle. I bummed around with odd jobs after high school until one day I spotted a small college in Ashland, Oregon. I later settled in Eugene, Oregon with my wife and two daughters. I began my writing career with the help of my daughters. When they were little, they drew pictures and created stories. One day they asked me to join them. I remember the day my four-year-old asked if I would do something for her. She asked if I would write a novel. And that was the day I began to write.
