This is the book I have just started writing. It is based on a flat I lived in in Manor House London in the early 1970s. There was a novel lurking in that house. It was full of characters and experiences. I have fictionalised the characters and events but the kernel is real.
This is the introduction. What do you think?
Introduction
This is Danny’s story and how he stumbled upon a home and friendships that saved his life. This is the story of a house that became a home. It is the story of an assortment of desperate people who were all lost and became found. It is a real story of how people who are worthless and have no respect for themselves came to form a community. It is a story that tells us that there is a reason for everything; that chance works in strange ways and that often salvation appears out of the strangest circumstance.
This is the story of Danny Champion.
