A true investigation · Volume 1 — The Origin
What if someone wrote your autobiography
before you were old enough to remember your own life?
Not in words you’d recognize.
Four origin mysteries
This book doesn’t claim to have solved any of them completely.

Buy the BookWhy the next book needs a journey
Some stories cannot be written from behind a desk.
Some of what comes next can be researched from documents and archives. Some of it needs a journey — a road, a conversation, a place, a person, a memory, a question a search engine can’t answer.
Travel, observation, research and conversation become part of the writing process itself. The journey becomes part of the story.
