Confession

Dark Zen took nearly two decades years to write. Well, putting words to paper and editing the damn thing didn't take that long. It took two decades of living. I tried to sit down a decade ago to write this, but it did not "feel" right. After yet another ten years of meetings with remarkable beings, becoming a father twice, gathering information, debating with my inner circle, debunking, and restructuring, I was able to finish this. 

If living was the fuel to write, then one single piece of writing was the match. The tome in question was Bobby Rock's "Zentauria". Unfortunately this particular masterpiece has not been published yet. Mr. Rock was kind enough to sent me a draft of this still to be published book. There has been only pieces of writing having ever impacted me in such way: "The Etruscan" by Mika Waltari was the first and "Zentauria" the second. There would be no Dark Zen without those two.
