The Fall and Rise of Kat Walker

About the Book

BEFORE IT WAS IT was a void of desolation. IT was a wasteland of perpetual shadows. IT was a time of great emptiness. IT was bleakness, which hovered above All else In the guise of an endless gray mist. IT was a time of no living things, until The Lord of All Energies revealed IT. And then, IT ERUPTED! BANG! From the Light came GOOD, From the Shades came EVIL.

About the Author

WHY DID I START WRITING THIS BOOK? I started writing simple short stories in 2001 as a therapy to help me heal from the disaster of my relapse back into active alcoholism during which I lost everything I ever help important. As the years passed and my recovery became stronger, I continued to write journals of my daily progress. It was during my journal writing when certain characters and scenes became clearer to me. I wrote what came to me and most often put these few sentences into files I would open months, or even years later to develop more fully as my writing skills continued to mature. But never once did I envision those first few sentences would lead to a manuscript interwoven with all the short stories, characters, and poems which my imagination began to create to cure my many wounds. I completed this book to prove to those who need a word of encouragement that hope always exists if you believe in something greater than yourself. When I did - it made all the difference. wcd
