Synopsis
chance. The long kept secret.
Home?
I had
returned. I hadn’t been here for seven
years. I was angry that last summer, and once I got away, I
didn’t want to come
back. The irony was the career I sought to escape this small
town was the very
reason I was here. My first movie was a featured film at the
Traverse City Film
Festival. As an independent film director, my premiere
brought me back home.
Home. A place I didn’t recognize.
Or maybe
home didn’t recognize me?
I had it
all in California: a girlfriend who was
the daughter of a movie financier, a job that led to
connections in the film
industry, and a condo overlooking the ocean in Malibu. What
I didn’t have was
family. I had left them all behind. I was the prodigal
son.
The last
person I expected to see was her.
Britton McKay. She had been my summer love as a teenager.
Not just once, but
over several summers; until the last one. That was seven
years ago. Now, she
looked more beautiful than I remembered. Seeing her again
flooded me with
memories long suppressed. She reminded me of everything I
once had and left behind.
Now, she
had returned too.
Can lost
romance be rekindled?
Can
unanswered questions be revealed?
Can I make
this place my home again?

About L.B. Dunbar
I’d
like to say I was always a writer. I’d also like to say that
I wrote every day
of my life since a child. That I took the teaching advice I
give my former
students because writing every day improves your writing.
I’d like to say I
have my ten-thousand hours that makes me a proficient
writer. But I can’t say
any of those things. I did dream of writing the “Great
American Novel” until
one day a friend said: Why does it have to be great? Why
can’t it just be good
and tell a story?
As a
teenager, I wrote your
typical love-angst poetry that did occasionally win me an
award and honor me
with addressing my senior high school class at our
Baccalaureate Mass.
I didn't keep a journal because I
was too afraid my mom would
find it in the mattress where I kept my copy of Judy Blume’s
Forever that
I wasn't allowed to read as a twelve year
old.
I can
say that books have
been my life. I’m a reader. I loved to read the day I
discovered “The Three
Bears” as a first grader, and ever since then, the written
word has been my
friend. Books were an escape for me. An adventure to the
unknown. A love affair
I’d never know. I could be lost for hours in a
book.
So why
writing now? I had a
story to tell. It haunted me from the moment I decided if I
just wrote it down
it would go away. But it didn't. Three years after
writing the first
draft, a sign (yes, I believe in them) told me to
fix up that draft and
work the process to have it published. That’s what I did.
But one story let to
another, and another, and another. Then a new idea came into
my head and a
new story line was
created.
I was accused (that’s
the correct word) of having an overactive imagination as a
child, as if that
was a bad thing. I've also been accused of
having the personality of
a Jack Russell terrier, full of energy, unable to
relax, and always one step
ahead. What can I say other than I have stories to tell and
I think you’ll like
them. If you don’t, that’s okay. We all have our book
boyfriends. We all have
our favorites. Whatever you do, though, take time for
yourself and read a book.
