Flotsam contains scenes and pictures from this baby boomer's life. My experiences are no better than anyone else's: no worse. My experiences and lessons learned directly influence my novels, for as Ayn Rand says, "When you sit down to write, you do not need to calculate everything in a slow, conscious way. Your inspiration comes to the exact extent of the knowledge you have stored."
Flotsam are those parts of the wreckage of a ship or its cargo found floating on the sea as a result of shipwreck.
My belief is if there's no insight, mystery, and wonder in an author's real life, how much can be found in his or her novels? -Eugene Roome
