About the Book
Being raised by a family of very strict religious beliefs, I was
forced to live a childhood of imprisonment and boredom. I
had to listen to a preacher every week ramble on about the
war between God and Satan to wreak havoc on my soul.
At the age of four I had my first encounter with a demon. I
know the apparition that appeared before me was sent by the
Devil himself. Thus, leading me into temptation and poisoning
my thoughts. This threw me into a state of confusion which
in-turn started the battle between good and evil within me.
Thereafter I begun to rebel against all that was instilled in my
mind. To this day I still vividly remember what I experienced
that night.
At the age of fourteen I met a man named Jack Redenuis who
influenced me to transform the conflicting thoughts running
through my head into words. One afternoon I was relaxing
in my room, listening to the radio when I decided to take
his advice. I began to write. It was then I realized how right
he was. By putting feelings and thoughts on paper, one’s
reconciliation becomes plain and simple.
