How far would you go for love?
Book 1 – The Otherside
“Centuries are what it meant to me
A cemetery where I marry the sea
Stranger things could never change my mind
I gotta take it on the other side…”
~ Red Hot Chili Peppers
“I’ve always been mystified by humanity’s universal, and dare I add misguided, fear of death.” So recounts an elderly Michael Bishop, the last “Wanderer,” on a one-way flight to India to face his impending death.
THE OTHERSIDE, book one of “The Wanderer” series, is a past-life recollection which weaves together four historical timelines: from a Boston suburb in the 1980s to the south side of Chicago in the 50s and 60s and from Berlin’s roaring 20s to the south of France in 1888. History blends with the supernatural in this timeless love story which shows, among other things, why Vincent van Gogh traveled to Arles in February, 1888 and how he really lost his ear.
Book 2 – Show of Strength
“Bonds will break and fade
Go snapping all in two
The lies that bind the tie
Come sailing out of you…”
~ Echo and the Bunnymen
Story currently in development
Book 3 – Higher Hell
“Cracked in the middle of me
Have to find my heart
Smiling equates with happy
But I know they’re miles apart…”
~ Echo and the Bunnymen
Story currently in development
Book 4 – Harvest Moon
“Because I’m still in love with you
I want to see you dance again
Because I’m still in love with you
On this harvest moon…”
~ Neil Young

What or who is a wanderer?
From the Law of One material…
“Imagine, if you will, the sands of your shores. As countless as the grains of sand are the sources of intelligent infinity. When a social memory complex has achieved its complete understanding of its desire, it may conclude that its desire is service to others with the distortion towards reaching their hand, figuratively, to any entities who call for aid. These entities whom you may call the Brothers and Sisters of Sorrow move towards this calling of sorrow. These entities are from all reaches of the infinite creation and are bound together by the desire to serve in this distortion.
You may, at this time, note that as with any entities, each Wanderer has its unique abilities, biases, and specialties so that from each portion of each density represented among the Wanderers comes an array of pre-incarnative talents which then may be expressed upon this plane which you now experience so that each Wanderer, in offering itself before incarnation, has some special service to offer in addition to the doubling effect of planetary love and light and the basic function of serving as beacon or shepherd.
Some Wanderers offer themselves for but one incarnation while others offer themselves for varying lengths of your time up to and including the last two cycles of 25,000 years. If the agreed-upon mission is complete the Wanderer’s mind/body/spirit complex will go to the home vibration.”
