Author Vera Alexander has just published
her third novel, titled A Mother’s Love.
Vera Alexander is the birth name and
penname of retired teacher computer teacher Vera Castleman. To date Vera has
published five children’s books (The
Della and Easter series), one graphic novel (In the Twinkling of an Eye, illustrator Manuela Cardiga), three novels
(Full Circle, Darkest Before Dawn and now A
Mother’s Love) and finally a collection from her blog titled Me Unplugged. All her books are
available in Kindle format from Amazon.
Her writing philosophy is “I don’t expect
to get stinking rich as an author. All I really want is for people to read and
hopefully love what I have written.”
“A person consists of three entities – the
physical body, the brain and what is called the soul. This “soul” defines a
person for what they are, what they will achieve and what they will become,”
she continues.
“When a person lies in a coma, their body
occupies space on a hospital bed. Doctors feel that their brains are active and
can respond to outside stimuli so family is encouraged to talk to them. But
what of their soul? We know there is an inner life source. Scientists have
taken photographs of the moment of death when the “electricity” in the body
departs, when the life essence leaves the body. So what happens to this life
essence when a person lies in a coma? What does it do? Where does it go? What
does it experience?”
Angela’s body lies in a hospital bed. She
is in a coma. This novella explores the possible journey of her soul.
