Cidiera

A tale that begins with two unsuspecting people who fall in love as they discover they can connect to each other's psychic frequencies and transmit their thoughts to each other over time through two custom-built radios connected by spare parts that came from a WWII transceiver. As they find each other and discover their abilities, the world slips into a dystopian hellscape around them. 

​

The love of Eddie and Mae takes the reader through the lives of people in their town, and throughout history, as they struggle to survive and fight back against a rising fascist dictator and his brutal plans. 

​

What started out as me writing a cheesy fantasy to pick myself up on Valentine's Day has evolved into a Romantic, Sci-Fi, Thriller with political themes that explore the rich history of Bazeltown, TN and the surrounding areas, which I have found to be fascinating.

​

The story contains factual events mixed with lore built upon my own imagination. I will make a list of sources, in the future.

​

I would like to note that the historical characters are actual people from my own geneology that have their own, local lore. Due to the fact that their lives were not recorded as well as some, their stories are based on what I found in research that was then related to the history of that time in that location.

​

I note this to say that, for those who may be searching for answers regarding our shared ancestors, this story is magical realism. If you would like to know the factual parts of those stories, feel free to reach out to me in the contact portion of my page, and I'll share with you what I have.

​

Also, this story can be very violent, at times, and may trigger your trauma.
