Third chapter, for your enjoyment Saturday July 4, 1992 There was something slightly ironic about getting married on Independence Day, but it didn’t bother me in the slightest.

Excerpt: The Mirror’s Image, second chapter
While we all wait for the cover to be ready, here’s another chapter! Thursday, July 2, 1992 I woke around six, as was my habit on a weekday. I still felt a little stunned, but certainly more clear headed than I had been yesterday. I slipped out of bed and dressed quietly. Kristy appeared…
