Alternate Reality

When I first started writing about the Compass Society, I wanted to make it impressive. It was, after all, a very old establishment and being exclusive and secret, it's had the opportunity to recruit only the brightest and best. As a result I wanted to show that they were years ahead of anything we could imagine technologically, so I came to this scene where Gary is arriving at work on his first day. I wanted him to be amazed right from the start. This is what I came up with and believe me, it just gets better from here! I hope that you enjoy!

Book Excerpt

Compass Society

Stacy walked over to a wall and put her hand on it. A door appeared.

“How did you do that?” Gary asked astonished.

“It’s all part of the alternate reality that you’ll learn about,” she smiled.

Gary walked over to the door and opened it. He stared inside at the thin, swirling light inside that filled the doorway. He could see a changing scene of destinations. “How do I know which one to go to?” he asked. “It seems to be giving a wide choice of places to jump through to.”

Stacy laughed. “First of all, you don’t ‘jump’ through to anyplace. You simply walk through the door, like you would any other door.” Stacy closed the door, left her hand on the knob and said, “Main level offices, work room.” She opened the door and the light inside shrunk down to nothing, revealing a lit hallway. “After you,” Stacy said with a mock bow and extending her arm toward the entrance.
