Sometimes and without warning we return to our past. Not fleeting remembrances, but something much deeper, re-living every embarrassing moment, the sounds, the smells, the love and the pain. Supposing you could take those experiences, and allow your imagination, to run wild and free. How would it turn out? For the better, perhaps. For the worse, probably. What would it actually feel like to be Shakespeare on a bad day. What would have happened, had the teenage you, spoken to that girl instead of standing there tongue-tied and awkward. 'Alternate Lives' is an exploration of the, "if only’s" and "what might have been’s" of the author’s life. There are no earth-shattering events or making of history. He was never there when those things happened. Instead, he shares eighteen everyday experiences and dreams exploring how things could have been different. While a few tales are complete flights of fancy, no he never was Santa, but wanted to be, most have within them some smidgens of truth. One story, however, is completely true, albeit incomplete. Which one, well that is for him to know and for you to guess.
