Read Light Catchers
Like many of the stories I write, Light Catchers started as a story I told my kids at bedtime. I love encouraging my kids to imagine things beyond what they can experience, make them laugh, think, feel, and delight in the imaginative world.
When I tell stories to my children, I feel a freedom to be more dream-like in the way I tell them. I want to the story to serve as a bridge between reality and the subconscious world of dreams, so when I worked this into a story, I tried to maintain that feel.
Light Catchers is a bridge between reality and dreams. It is about a boy's connection to his family in the isolated reality of interplanetary travel. It is about finding the treasure in the field and losing everything to have it.
Ultimately, it's a story about us. Enjoy.
