Story Behind The Book
With ALEX, I wanted to take a different approach. This is a story of a young man able to experience other’s emotions and to sometimes see their thoughts. I wanted to write this story from a different angle than the standard serial killer/ psychic drama. It would be told from Alex’s unique perspective, his thoughts and emotions and how he deals with his ‘gift’ in a doubting world.
