Somewhere after I retired, I had a vivid and lifelike dream. It was a dream that I will never forget and the implications. I took that dream and made it into a story. Here is the introductory paragraph.

When Tom drifts into sleep one ordinary night, he’s pulled into a vivid dream where Sandra—his grounded, quietly magnetic grade‑school companion he hasn’t thought of in forty years—appears exactly as she was in high school. She shows him three lives they might have lived together, each one tender, unsettling, and impossibly real. Shaken awake, Tom searches for her… only to discover she died three days earlier. What follows is a decades‑long reflection on connection, timing, and the mysteries that refuse to fade. Three Days After Sandra is a haunting, heartfelt novella about the questions we never knew we asked, the lives we never lived, and the quiet ways the past sometimes reaches forward—not to change our path, but to remind us that it mattered.

The small paper back is available on Amazon, and the Kindle edition will be available January 9th.
