This is not a typical post, but rather an announcement of some exciting news. My novel, which I began work on in August 2017, has finally been published! As I wrote in my acknowledgments, I wrote a story because I felt like I had a story to tell. A story that is, hopefully, one worth reading. See my recent interview regarding the novel here.
The narrative follows a protagonist in his mid-twenties who is adrift following the loss of his parents. In the intervening years, he has allowed several important relationships in his life to fall to tatters as he sought to find bliss via adventure. Nor the Moon by Night is the story of his journey to heal old wounds and nurture new relationships – as well as new ways of understanding his place in the world – as he seeks to find that which makes for a meaningful life.
I hope that this story speaks not only to the ethos here at Deliberately Aimless, but that it speaks to all those who may come across the book and dare to read it. It is my hope that it can also speak to the pathos of any prospective audience seeking to find direction – for this book might not re-invent the wheel where the notion of finding meaning in life is concerned, but then perhaps the wheel doesn't need re-inventing. It just needs someone to set it spinning.
Get the book on Amazon or Barnes & Noble!
