About The Spirit Dream
I overshot my October 31st deadline by a couple of weeks. But I did get it done.
The book is going out to beta readers ASAP and will then be edited for publication. I have a title, now, and a cover, which you can see full-size below.
Coming Up with a Title
Picking the title was a challenge. My first choice was "Of Light and Dark."
But since the Spirit Dream was THE dream that kicked off my search for meaning and dreams figured prominently in much of what happened along the way I thought that fit. So the title is The Spirit Dream and the picture on the cover is representative of that dream.
The book will be available on Amazon and on Etsy and on my author website in 2024 and my paranormal story should be available not long after that. I will be talking about select topics from the testimony on YouTube and on the podcast and possibly sharing some excerpts here on this site.

The Blurb
The Spirit Dream is the story of a very unusual dream and the search for meaning that followed. This search included a deep exploration of New Age practices, and Spiritualism. Finally, providence brought me back to the Catholic faith, I'd left behind some 20 years earlier. The Spirit Dream is a spiritual memoir that includes reflections and research on a range of phenomena and topics. Coming soon!
A Closer Look at the Cover
The word necromancy is adapted from Late Latin necromantia: a loan word from the post-Classical Greek νεκρομαντεία (nekromanteía), a compound of Ancient Greek νεκρός (nekrós, or 'dead body') and μαντεία (manteía, or 'divination'). (Wikipedia)
There was a time when I was fascinated with cemeteries. They were once my favorite place, in fact, for recording EVPs and taking spirit photos.

The first rule: in persons who are going from mortal sin to mortal sin, the enemy is ordinarily accustomed to propose apparent pleasures to them, leading them to imagine sensual delights and pleasures in order to hold them more and make them grow in their vices and sins. - The Rules of St. Ignatius
