BEING inspired

sunset

Sunset, and our home star makes way for the countless, fabulously distant home stars of other worlds. The atmosphere grows translucent and everything beyond it feels so attainable it's as if I could reach into the blue and grab hold. But I wouldn't find anything new; not really. So much of what we are is stardust, carried here by solar wind and in the icy stones of comet tails. It's easy to forget, when caught up in the routine of a mundane work day, that we are inseparably part of things much bigger and more infinite than ourselves. But whenever I need inspiration, I simply dwell on where I came from ... and where I might go from here.

Sunsets, stars and all things universe, inspired my upcoming story, Being.  It releases in February but in truth, I can't wait.  I've labored on this story for years -- at times setting it aside -- at times so lost in it I can't bear to eat dinner or go to bed.  It's such a great story!
