When Bad Times Were Good Timesby Bobbie Coleman In my novel of short stories, there are compelling situations explaining how I became a writer. Doing this has helped me to free my self-conscious mind to a certain degree by writing and putting my thoughts down on paper. I am in some part of every one of my stories. I have always been a daydreamer. Since early childhood, I have been trapped in my unconscious mind.When you look at me, most of the time I am quiet, listening and thinking about the “what ifs” or “when will…” and “who with?” That is the silent game I’m playing in my mind. One-fourth of my day consists of daydreaming. In my mind, I can listen to a conversation by one group of people and be daydreaming at the same time.So here it goes. I hope you enjoy reading my inter-mind and get some enjoyment from reading my short stories.
