《Nostalgia | ✔》Illusions
Advertisement
Such an elysian girl she was
Who wandered in hall ways
Of all the soft shady dreams
Oh ever so lost in her sways
I remember her little frame
Floatin' around in the cloud
Of magic and sheer wonder
Echoing with music so loud
Enveloped in her fragrance
I lost every shard of reason
Giving in to wild insanities
I felt no time and no season
Her graceful steps caressed
Strings of my drugged heart
Trapping me in silken webs
She showed me, she was art
Hidin' in my humble abode
Drownin' in rollin' lullabies
I kissed her silent whispers
Never thinking of goodbyes
Dissolvin' in a lovely trance
She felt like a fragile dream
So she faded away in magic
And I couldn't even scream
Now I am left ever so alone
Amidst hazy nostalgic rains
For I sip in the helplessness
Painted with delicate pains
Entangled in a sunlit dream
Now I feel ever so uncertain
When her silhouette reflects
Behind a floatin' net curtain
And as I cry myself to sleep
I wonder if all her allusions
In my life at last proved that
Art is adorned with illusions

Savage Hunters
Giant monsters roam the land Civilization is frozen in a savage age. For the beast slayer Alden, power and survival are one and the same. The ancient evil that once ravaged his village and murdered his ancestors has returned. At the same time, politics hurls Alden and his crew into gladiator pit battles for control of the throne. When Alden takes possession of a cursed sword promising untold power, the hunter is determined to save his people by slaying every giant monster standing between him and the throne. But the angry ghost trapped inside the blade has other ideas. Buckle up for the brutal LitRPG ride of a lifetime Savage Hunters is an alternate-world neolothic fantasy. Characters grow their powers with explicit stat blocks presented right in the text, including levels, attribute scores, and unlockable skill trees. Experience is accumulated by battling enormous monsters the size of buildings. Political intrigue and romance elements ramp up as the series progresses. I originally wrote this story after playing Monster Hunter with my niece. She was 12 at the time, already an avid reader, and wanted to read my other published books. I'm a licensed psychotherapist specializing in severe trauma so I tend toward darker fiction. I told her my usual books are too brutal for her but I'd write her something special. The result was this series, which has been praised by both teens and adults for its depth and universal appeal. It begins with an emphasis on cultural elements because I consulted with a trained anthropologist to craft this neolithic setting down to exacting social detail. After these opening chapters, it rapidly shifts to an action-packed adventure. The first 3 books are fully written as of November 2020, totalling approximately 69 chapters. The first book has been professionally edited already. The following two books require some editing which I'll do on a chapter-by-chapter basis as releases progress. I welcome reviews and comments. Writing is a passion, and reader engagement makes my labor all the sweeter.
