An Author now Living through his Works

What does it mean to write a story? What does it mean to hold a dream? What does it mean to run from the past? What does it mean to run off the path? You may be confused why I ask those questions but pause for a moment and think of the answer. You see the correlation? It is all a form of hope. The hope of changing your regrets, the hope of a new world, the hope of a dream. Isn’t that what it mean to be an author?
