Book Excerpt

 "Please don’t go yet." Oh my. His voice cuts through me, right to the core and I stand

stiffly not wanting to make any sudden movements. As openly as I can manage without

completely falling apart around him I tenderly whisper. "I can’t."

I take a deep breath and muster as much strength as I can. I raise my hand from

underneath his delicate hold and signal the oncoming taxi. Within seconds the car pulls

abruptly into the kerb. I reach dramatically for the door handle swinging it open

emotionally, and before I hurdle into the car I turn to look at him once more. "I’m

sorry," I mutter before getting in. "141 Harper Street, Annandale please," I retort to the

driver; and as the car pulls back into the street, all I can do is stare at his motionless

body as we drive away. As soon as he is out of my sight the tears that seem to

permanently hover just under the surface can’t be held back anymore. They flow

From the earliest age I was a born storyteller.

Ask my parents and they will tell you I had a gift for making a

simple event seem like an elaborate one. Purposely? No.

Innocently? Yes. It was my imaginary world that initially led

me to believe I wanted to be an actor. All of that role playing

and living in fantasy... it was an obvious direction for me.

However, becoming quite uncomfortable with the limelight quickly saw that dream

Over the years I turned my world of fantasy into stories, and eventually began writing

them down. Before I knew it, 'Cut' had been completed.
