This is the first book in Anthony Flynn’s Modern Drifter series. In it he brings us along on a few years of his work and life. Not all goes as planned as he takes on a new adventure in a familiar place. Certain questions are contemplated along the journey:
– When do we stop apologizing to ourselves and others for our life choices?
– How long do we keep searching for a perfect life?
– Will our choices now keep affecting our future life?

What if our parents decided to take different paths and never met?
How much do we ever really know about our parents?
Will family always be there for you?
These provocative questions are at the core of this remarkable and inspiring book. First developed as a stage play, then adapted into a novel, these stories had waited years to be told. Both were written when the world was put on pause in March 2020.
about the author
Anthony Flynn
Growing up in Boston, I was surrounded by the local art scene, which scared and inspired me. I was not a natural artist, so I looked for other ways of artistic expression. I would write plays and perform them in my bedroom to an audience of none. Creating elaborate dance routines was also a favorite. In school I took creative writing and photography. In a thrift store I found a Super 8 camera and taught myself how to use it. I formed my own little production company and made a total of 5 short films.
Dance was always part of my life, and I was lucky to have a teacher in middle school that encouraged it. Once in High School I continued to dance and added acting as well. My dance teacher let me choreograph pieces that were showcased in our annual shows for the school. One of my proudest moments was when I won an acting award for a play that had me recite a 20-minute monologue in which I aged from 15 to 45 years old.
