Hello Readers: I am Rowlen Deleware Vanderstone III, my penname. My real name is Robert D. Vergeson and I have since my childhood have always dreamed of writing. I just had to get past my learning disabities and a physical handicapp since I was born premature 1951. As early as I can remember my daydreams and night dreams was about adventures stories, being he hero who rescued the fair maiden. It wasn't until after repeating 3 elementary grades over that at age 15 did I finally physically grasp my reading skills and since I became an avid reader of Sci-fi and fatansy, Teen adventure stories, and rite of passage stories of teen life in many circumstances in life. And yes, I rooted for the hero who bested the bullies in his life. I had my fair share of them in my life given my own circumstances. I wrote my first story in my senior year in high school, then shelved it as worthless. It wasn't until decades later that I had my poetry published in those anthologies. Even won a few recognitions. My my first real Sci-fi manuscipt was rejected by a publisher summarily and I gave up writing. To be honest I was lousy when it came to english grammer, but had a great imagination. curing Covid, at 70 years of age, I took out my dustiy manuscripts and went the Ebook route with Smashwords, and 46 published Ebooks later, I am still grinding away.
I was certainly a late bloomer, like at age 47 I got a college degree, earned a 3.5 GPA, made the National Deans List, and was inducted into the PHI Thetta Kappa honor society. My High school counscelor once told me that I was't college material. Was told digging ditches was the best job for me. I believed her, and dug ditches, and spend 27 years still believing her. Bullies come in all kind of shapes and ages. My first ebook is a bio about my bullies called "Walters and the Bullies" On Smashwords.com I am still lousy at grammer and spelling and very thankful for spell and grammer check.
At 72, I look forward to a few more books out of me. I will pat myself on the back and say my Sci Fi fantasy are good reads,. My rite of passages series even better, my chapbook, my mysteries, and my non-fiction revealing.
Only a rare few could see it, and when they did, a second look proved it to be a mirage. Now you see it now you don't. But by definition a mirage is an optical illusion caused by atmospheric conditions, especially the appearance of a sheet of water in a desert or on a hot road caused by the refraction of light from the sky by heated air. My eyes saw one thing, and that day it looked real and out of place. That day I was out and about with my new camera taking landscape shots, and skyline shots. By the naked eye, I saw in the near distant what appeared to be a large and by large I mean at least 8 floors high a radar disc down in the valley towering over the trees and houses. In a spot where there shouldn't be a radar disc, as it was in my neighborhood I had been living in for some 15 years. I raised my digital camera and by the display focused on the object. It appeared on my display. I focused my lens to a wide shot to get it in and snapped my shot. When I lowered my camera and looked down the hill. It was gone. When I scrolled through my shots I discovered the pictured I had snapped was there, but there was no very large radar disc towering over the treetops in the shot. Just houses, trees and a blue sky with a few white clouds and in the distance the nearest 15 floor apartment tower. By the naked eye for just a moment was the large radar disc. Now no disc, just the tallest building near my downtown residential neighborhood. Minutes later, after walking down the hill into the valley to where I believed was a radar disc was just a large empty parking lot. I shook my head in disbelief that it was real, that I had seen a mirage. I dismissed it has a mirage, to which my digital camera did not record once I snapped the shot. But why did it see it with the naked eye before I snapped the shot and not on the actual picture? I went home and forgot all about the illusion chalking it up to tired eyes that day.
