Produktbeschreibung

Scarlett is the story of Charlotte and Liam, a long-distance couple spanning the North American continent from Sedona, Arizona to St. Johns Newfoundland, Canada. When the two meet for the first time, they waste little time getting physical. Upon their consummation, Charlotte feels as though she's conceived. Shortly after sharing the notion with Liam, she has a chance ghost encounter, upon which she comes to conclude that her 'baby seed' has been taken by the ghost; later learning to have implanted it into her living self, in the past, before she died. This child, to become the girl called Scarlett.

Liam and Charlotte's lives navigating this insane circumstance become a lot more than they'd bargained for as a new couple. Charlotte's special abilities to affect time (slightly projecting into the past/future), lead her to seek out the past where the daughter she never birthed, went.

Initially, the methodology to try and reach Scarlett's time is Dream-walking. Though adequate for a while, as the girl ages, she outgrows the 'imaginary friends' of childhood dreamland. Later, a mirror (with a 'thin spot') from a St. Johns watering hole is discovered; whereby past travel is possible. With the aid of another ghost from the bar, plus the help of a server named Chloe, the foursome begin to navigate 'the way-back machine' with a certain effectiveness.

Will Charlotte & Liam ever successfully rescue and retrieve Scarlett to the present?

Autorenporträt

A.F. Roberts was raised in Phoenix, Arizona by transplants from Chicago. As a youth, comic books and science-fiction were the major influences. High School through college brought an introduction to Christianity, which, combined with the former, birthed not only a refreshment of spirit, but an imagination unrestrained by any constrictions of that same faith.

Roberts studied Advertising Arts at Maricopa Tech (now Gateway Community College), earning an A.A.S. degree. This path led toward numerous positions in the field of community newspapers, both in-plant web press operations and pre-press layout at individual news publications. In these places, production work sometimes led to occasional photo journalism or newswriting assignment. In life, divorce and single parenting steered into journaling. In tandem, these elements began the progression into creative writing.

In time, a whimsical sci-fi notion began transforming into the novel Cross Gate. Over the course of penning the epic, Roberts was introduced to the YA supernatural genre, devouring novel after novel, both improving and inspiring his own writing.

On another occasion, while serving communion one day, an idea about a perceived parallel between the Lord's Supper and vampire lore occurred to Roberts. Eventually, the notion turned into the novel Blood Light.

Roberts continues to reside in Phoenix, staying close to his son and self-publishing books. He maintains employment in the print industry at Short Run Printing LLC, which produces magazines and ironically, books and comics!
