Reading and Living
As I sit in my reading chair, soft lamplight overhead, mp3 playing a bouncy guitar piece in my ear, and a glass of chilled Cabernet on
the small table nearby, everything is in place for me to start my new, very
anticipated, adventure. As you can tell, I do not stand atop skyscraper I-beams
or scale vertical bluffs to find that adrenaline rush. My search for excitement
involves the impossible, improbable, the fantastic, and the occasional mostly realistic story. More than plot and characters, I seek the storyteller who can transport me to another place, transcending time, wringing my heart and
bending my thoughts enough that when I reach the final line, and even days after
the tale is read I am still captivated by strong emotions and my life
perception changed.
