Being Free: On the Inside

GENRE: MAGICAL REALISM / PRISON FICTION / SPIRITUAL SELF-HELP

Corey Astin is a lawyer who will spend the next six years in prison. He knows he did wrong, and wants to make amends, but needs guidance and protection. The nature of his crime makes him an instant target for other inmates. As you might expect, county jail offered only a tiny preview of the harsh environment in the maximum-security state prison. Corey arrives in shackles in the middle of the cold Maine winter, to a poorly-heated cell block, knowing only one person, Carl, from his time in jail. Corey soon meets Dalton, a man who will become his mentor and teacher of a special way of seeing and using energy called The Choice. Being chosen is a great honor, but Corey doesn’t know it yet. He is just beginning to understand what kind of magical world exists within for those who can manifest it. Told from a first-person perspective, Corey explains his experience in the prison, and his growing friendship with Dalton. He tells the story as if you are with him, listening to his concerns, and baring his soul. Get ready to experience the first part of a private and perilous journey into a world that few have ever known.

Based in part on the author's own spiritual journey, Being Free: On the Inside is a magical realism story of hope and redemption.
