Unleash Your Imagination! ????
As adults, our daydreams often pale in comparison to the wild worlds we conjured as children. Remember when the ordinary became extraordinary? When you could soar through galaxies with ease? In 'The Imagination Stone,' Tom Parker is a man living in a "gray world" of corporate rivalry until he discovers the secret to rekindling that spectacular creativity. I wrote this scene to capture the exact moment the 'Gray World' finally cracks open. As adults, we’re taught to see a rooftop and a rising sun. But through the lens of The Imagination Stone, I wanted Tom (and the reader) to see the green-cheese moon and the cosmic picnic. It’s a reminder that reclaiming our childhood wonder doesn't just change what we see, it changes who we are. Ready to let your inner child lead the way? Grab your copy on Amazon and rediscover the magic of imagining again!
Book Excerpt
The Imagination Stone
The building had never seen anyone there this early, let alone on its rooftop. But that was where Tom stood, his back toward the rising sun. He had been there most of the early morning, almost half the night, watching the last of the night stars twinkle and fade. He held the stone tightly in his hand. With its help, he saw astronauts playing tag in the star-studded sky, space creatures of varying sizes having picnics by the shores of the oceans of Venus, and shapes and colors of all types on and around planets. He saw those planets floating past the moon and saw the moon as if it were made of green cheese and, of course, a gigantic space mouse ready to nibble here and there on the savory moon!
