About

Much like Megan, Scott D. Southard grew up with a love of literature and the worlds of the imagination. Originally from Grand Rapids, Michigan, Scott studied writing at college, receiving his Master's in the subject from the University of Southern California. He is also the author of 3 Days In Rome, a dark comedy about the afterlife, and The Dante Experience, a radio play loosely based on Dante’s Divine Comedy. At this time, Scott is working on the final revisions of his next novel, My Problem With Doors, a unique time-travel adventure filled with everything from mad Roman emperors to bloody pirates to karate masters, which is also set to be published by I Publish Press. Scott resides in Lansing, Michigan with his wife, son, and a very opinionated dog named Bronte. You can find him on both Facebook and MySpace.

Description

<p><strong><em>Have you ever awoken from a vivid dream and wondered which side of waking was real?</em></strong></p><p>Burt Higgins' retirement is not going well. His children have grown, and his wife has gone off to earn a late-life degree, leaving him alone in his sprawling suburban home. With too much time on his hands, he broods on the state of the world, obsessively following the worst of cable news and the Internet. Increasingly angry at the state of affairs, he nurtures a fantasy that a dark lord from another realm has foisted these problems on humankind. If only he could transport to that world, he'd confront the demon and use the magic found there to defeat the beast and end despair forever.</p><p>On a particularly bad news day, while housebound in the midst of a snowstorm, he retreats to his study to shut out the world and immerse himself in his books. When, on a whim, he lights a candle purchased in an obscure Prague curiosity shop, a magical guide appears and offers to take him on whatever quest he chooses. When he asks to become a hero in a fantasy realm, he discovers a more complex world than he expected, and battling evil with magic turns out to be far from his greatest challenge.</p><p><strong>EVOLVED PUBLISHING PRESENTS</strong> a specualtive fantasy adventure sure not just to entertain you, but to make you consider your life, your dreams, your goals.

Reviews

<div></div><div></div>“<em>My Problem with Doors</em> lends itself very well to young male readers—an often under-approached readership. Adolescent and young adult boys will love living vicariously through Jacob as he uses his wit and battle skills to conquer foes, commandeer a pirate ship and even fall in love. Through a yearning for adventure, these readers will also learn a bit of history and be compelled to contemplate the deeper meaning that exists within the story’s action-packed pages.” - AnnArbor.com<br /><br /><strong>Highly Entertaining</strong> - [<em>My Problem With Doors</em>] features rousing action that should appeal to young adult male readers as well as grown-ups...an absorbing, thought-provoking tale - <strong><a href="http://www.lansingstatejournal.com/article/20101017/THINGS0206/10170443/1077/THINGS0206">Rob Walsh, Lansing State Journal</a></strong><br /><div></div><div></div>
