Cronos Catharsis: The Book

As the success of my first novel, “Time Traveler’s Digest” grew, my passion for storytelling evolved significantly. The more readers engaged with my work, the more driven I became to delve deeper into the themes that fascinated me, especially the concept of time and its potential for healing. This growing interest and dedication led me to explore new and complex ideas in my upcoming novella, “Cronos Catharsis.”

In “Cronos Catharsis,” I explore various aspects of time and healing. Each story in this collection delves into a different facet of these themes. Some stories focus on time’s power over many of us, on the ability to find closure from past events, and some on the transformative nature of letting go. My aim with these stories is to guide readers on a journey of self-reflection and personal growth, using my prose to hopefully captivate and inspire.

I’m so happy to share that the final chapter in “Cronos Catharsis” will also be a standalone novelette. “The Rapture Story No One Told You About,” represents a significant departure from traditional narratives. In this work, I challenge the conventional religious interpretations of “The Rapture.” Instead of depicting it as a religious event, I present it as a personal awakening — a moment of realization and transformation that enables individuals to transcend their current circumstances and realize their true potential. This reinterpretation offers an alternative perspective that I hope will provoke thought and discussion among readers.

There’s a palpable excitement about how this story will challenge their preconceived notions and stimulate engaging discussions.

In addition to this great news, my new maxiseries, “Temporal Visions,” will go from a print magazine to digital visualizer format, as I plan to release a new edition at the end of each month throughout 2024, starting on January 20th. This series is an expansion of the themes explored in “Time Traveler’s Digest.”

With each edition, I aim to push the boundaries of conventional storytelling, challenge societal norms, and capture the imaginations of readers worldwide. My goal with these new bodies of work is not just to entertain but to provoke thought and inspire change, encouraging readers to see the world and their place in it through a new lens.
