About the Book
An intriguing story of a successful New York novelist whose new book doesn’t suit the press, the reviewers, and finally, the Author himself. He finds himself lost to himself in his quest for a “good and new and sellable story”.
Landon’s Rise is fueled by the support of a new woman in his life, his former wife was his inspiration until she died, and this loss is a part of the uphill battle for Landon and his work.
In a sense, this story is one of a search for inspiration that all creative people face as well as those who aspire to the creative life. Along the way, Landon Harris discovers the life of the thousands of homeless, runaway kids in New York City and delves into the depths of their plight to create his new book, Shadow Angel. as well as a new life for himself.
Here is a book about creativity, persistence and success in the hands of a writer who finds again, that Inspiration is real and life giving.
