Raleigh Park

While Raleigh Park is fictional, there are aspects of it, as in any novel, that will, I am sure, be familiar to many people, as it reflects, to some degree, things that have happened in our lives or the lives of family and friends.
Writing the novel was very emotional for me in that after putting in four or five hours or more at times writing the book, I found the story coming alive and mentally lingering in the lives and events of my characters. It was almost as if I had transported myself into the world within the book. On many occasions, I woke up and felt I was, as an example, actually in Portland. This experience was something I never expected from writing a book. I now wonder if other authors have the same experience from their endeavors.
I hope that you will enjoy reading my effort, and maybe you will, as I was, become emotionally involved in my story and feel it come alive.
