Diary of a dead man
Novel based on a true story of a search for life's meaning tragedy and redemption .
​
''The night air is warm and humid the night air damp as I absentmindedly allow it fall between my fingers . I hear the familiar sound of waves against the shore A sound I've grown used to , the constant backdrop to my happiness and ultimate despair .
The platform sits on a calm sea. Patiently awaiting my arrival . It's eerie beauty welcomes me . It's the place I've chosen , it's my special place . As the cool breeze caresses my my body and ruffles my hair like an old friend I feel the knife in my pocket , I run it's serrated blade across my thumb .. I see the top of the wine bottle the bottle of pills and my camera .
The platform is indeed my special place , it's the place I've chosen to die . ''

A few comments
I loved him , he tried to help me he was a good man
Mysie
I read this in all honesty not knowing what to expect .. I was shocked and entertained in equal measure , I finished it in 2 sessions .. Over 2 weeks ago . It's still in my head now
D. Dossett
It's a great story , it's raw in some ways , unpolished not like you might expect from a seasoned writer but it's a tragic and at the same time life affirming . I have to say I enjoyed it . And what's more it stayed with me ..
