Homesick for Imaginary Places

Have you ever felt an aching pull toward a place that doesn't exist? A city that whispers your name in the quiet of dawn, a forest you've seen only in dreams, or a home that you recognize despite never having set foot there. This book is a journey into the landscapes of our hearts, the corners of our minds where impossible places live and breathe. Homesick for Imaginary Places is a tribute to those vivid, enchanting worlds that haunt us, places that linger just beyond the edge of memory.

In these pages, I hope to guide you through landscapes that perhaps you, too, have glimpsed in dreams or childhood daydreams. Together, we'll explore the mystical lure of imaginary places and confront the bittersweet ache of nostalgia for the unreal. Blending memoir, speculative storytelling, and reflective exercises, this book invites you to celebrate and cultivate the imaginative worlds that bring mystery and magic to our everyday lives.

Welcome to a journey toward everywhere and nowhere at once. I hope you find a bit of home in these pages.
