To My Beloved Readers, nothing is better than telling a story that has many dynamics to it. With characters that mature, digress, love, hate and allow you to embody them during their rawest moments in life. Every time I give you a piece of my life, I will give you a piece of me. I will give you more than a book. I will give you an experience. Dearest Lover. It's the unfolding of promises we made to ourselves and each other when we were locked away. Dearest Lover is the Holy Grail between two addicts, whose main addiction was each other. Dearest Lover will capture the sober emotions of two distant hearts, who were fighting society's rules, reality, and each other. Dearest Lover was the sweetest term of endearment, when I thought about what salutation to begin my letters with. We were far away from any sense of normalcy. Every night, every morning and anytime he entered my thoughts, I wrote. I wrote to him in long spurts, draining my vocabulary to find the perfect words to let him know just how much I loved him. I wrote until my pencil was just a dull tip, metal and a flattened eraser. I wrote to him, while tears spilled from my eyes in the silence of the night. I wrote to him while they played cards, spread jailhouse gossip and argued over ramen noodles. I wrote to him, because he was all I thought that I had. Dearest Lover will capture the magic of the human language. These letters will give you a behind the scenes pass to the chaos that could only be recalled because it had been written down.
