I've always been fascinated by stories, and I've always been angered by human cruelty. In the novel She Rode Away, I took a detour from theology. I decided that I am no longer out to prove anything to anyone. I've grown weary of my own opinions. Not because I don't believe them, I'm tired of telling them. I'd rather tell a story. Embedded within She Rode Away are descriptions of encounters that, on the surface, could be assumed fantasies but are, in fact, real. Most of them were drawn from my encounters as a boy and some from my ministry adventures around the globe. Looking back, I realize that I had a unique set of eyes for a kid, and I never lost that vision. Eyes to see the "other side". I find it interesting that Jesus taught that the kingdom of God has to be received in a childlike manner to be experienced and accessed. One of my teenage spiritual encounters served as inspiration for the first dramatic manifestation in She Rode Away. Everything Michael experienced in his bedroom while Gin was being violated happened to me. The event was real, so I didn't need to embellish it. Everything from the dark apparition to the door slamming to the curtains whipping to the orbiting stuff! All if it happened. Truth be told, I considered toning it down, but I didn't. Now, having confessed all this, I want to add that my book, Hunger Driven, is as honest as the day is long. The spiritual encounters in that book are both extreme and true. Yes! It's an honest book! But! It still panders unwhittingly to the church. I love the book, and, based on the reviews, which are all organic, so do the readers. That's all for now. July 21, 2025. I will add more in the weeks to come. Brian
