An Accessed Life

After being a high school teacher for more than ten years, I had the great need to write my novel, An Accessed Life, so as to balance my burning desire to be a novelist, whilst overcoming my prior depression due to what working for Australian public school sector did to my sense of well-being. I make no bones that this novel is a huge cathartic relief to what I and many other teachers must tolerate from a work force that provides very little to no sympathy or support to those responsible for shaping young lives that would otherwise be largely wasted or condemned to a failed future. Please understand that although I still enjoy teaching, the cynicism I express is not only well-founded, but in the direct context of my novel, fully aims to illustrate and entertain everyone about the trials and tribulations of what a teaching career will possibly do to the average person. The only other thing I must add is that my novel is the first book in a trilogy. I dearly hope that the following two novels will be an equally enjoyable experience for me, as well as for the average person who appreciates this sort of literature.
