Togethermore: Rejection and Reunion
A story of a man who after 50 years wakes from his amnesia life and finds his birth family. Follow along as he struggles to fit in and yet retain as much of his constructed life as he can. But more than that, this is a story of humanity. Of finding who you are at the core of your being. Of finding how hurt is often expressed as hate and love is often expressed as sacrifice.

Roderick currently resides with his older sister on the edge of Ocala Forest in Umatilla Florida. https://www.fs.usda.gov/ocala
Ocala Forest is a 400K long-leaf pine forest filled with bears and panthers. Roderick lives just 200 feet away. His house is in the middle of no where, surrounded by horse farms.
Each day starts with roosters crowing and a pack of coyotes howling as they run along the perimeter of the forest. Brown and green anole lizards leap around on the fauna in the yard. It is not the ocean bound idea you think of Florida but rather a more restful setting where Roderick is able to hone his writing skills.
He often has biscuits and gravy at the Mason Jar restaurant; a local favorite. https://m.facebook.com/eatlikenooneiswatching/ Or lunch with his sister at the unique, pro-American, veteran-themed cafe; Combat Cafe. https://www.facebook.com/CombatCafe2018/
