The most any Author can hope for, is imparting part of themselves with their words ...The most any of us, the readers, hope for, is an escape from the moment ...When this happens, true magic is made. Doug Hodges ...weaves his magical world from his experiences, beliefs in life and mother earth ...Doug is on a life quest ...Like the majority of people, he is a work unfinished, what sets him apart, he knows this. He remains in contact with his spiritual guides ...and ...together they take us away ...While most of us are afraid to be different, Doug wears this skin comfortably. He allows all of us to think, wonder, and dares us to change the paradigms of our individuality ...If you have not read Doug's work yet, what are you waiting for! - The Author D.
