The Transition A Novel of Promise, Pitfalls, Perseverance, and Passion (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9798985372700)

The Transition reads like a journey of a young man toward his academic

and career goals. In many ways, the journey can be characterized

as semiautobiographical. Several aspects of the childhood to

adolescence to adulthood saga may be fictional. However, many

aspects of the journey are factual and historical. Intertwined between

the storylines is an evolving collage of early protest scenarios and

romantic experiences framed in poetic style. In many ways, the

collection represents an autobiographical sketch in romance. It begins

by providing snapshots of the author's early relationships and evolves

to romantic accounts experienced in adulthood.

The Transition features thirteen premium royalty-free images.

The Transition has a traditional table of contents, a second one,

titled "Musical Inspiration" (which includes QR Codes), and a third,

titled "Photographic Images." The thirteen images are presented at

the beginning and end of each of the six chapters. Including the

cover, thirteen images were selected from Getty Images and iStock

photographic resources on the www.istockphoto.com website.

In the short run, the author envisions that the collection will be

made available in electronic, paperback, hardcover, and audiobook

forms. In the long run, the author anticipates that it might be possible

to package the saga into a Hollywood movie production.
