Dear Reader, In 2007, I met a husband and wife who lost a daughter to cancer. As I stood, staring at her grave, I realized that she and I were the same age. Something about the cruelty of that struck me deeply. I later learned that her husband had couriered divorce papers to her hospital room shortly before she died. That struck me deeper. Still does. While I was kayaking on the St. Mary's River, this story bubbled up. I remember asking the question, "What about the guy who doesn't do that?" As I began putting words to paper, I found myself crafting a patchwork threaded with both beauty and pain. The result is WHERE THE RIVER ENDS, and yes, parts of this story are painful, but I've found the beauty outweighs the pain. Thank you for the invaluable role you play in the life of this story. All the best, Charles Martin www.charlesmartinbooks.com |
