Story4.5 out of 5 stars 438
Charlotte Davis is in pieces. At 17 she's already lost more than most people do in a lifetime. But she's learned how to forget. The broken glass washes away the sorrow until there is nothing but calm. You don't have to think about your father and the river. Your best friend, who is gone forever. Or your mother, who has nothing left to give you. Every new scar hardens Charlie's heart just a little more, yet it still hurts so much. It hurts enough to not care anymore, which is sometimes what has to happen before you can find your way back from the edge.

A has made peace with that, even established guidelines by which to live: Never get too attached. Avoid being noticed. Do not interfere. It’s all fine until the morning that A wakes up in the body of Justin and meets Justin’s girlfriend, Rhiannon. From that moment, the rules by which A has been living no longer apply....

The ancient Toltecs believed that life, as we perceive it, is a dream. We each live in our own personal dream, and these come together to form the dream of the planet, or the world in which we live. Problems arise when our perception of the dream becomes clouded with negativity, drama, and judgment (of ourselves and others), because it's in these moments of suffering that we have forgotten that we are the architects of our own reality and we have the power to change our dream if we choose.

Wow- profound
- By M.Reeves on 10-18-17
Publisher's Summary
The epic made simple. The miracle in the mundane.
One day, while browsing an antique store in Helena, Montana, photographer Tyler Knott Gregson stumbled upon a vintage Remington typewriter for sale. Standing up and using a page from a broken book he was buying for $2, he typed a poem without thinking, without planning, and without the ability to revise anything.
He fell in love.
Three years and almost 1,000 poems later, Tyler is now known as the creator of the Typewriter Series: a striking collection of poems typed onto found scraps of paper or created via blackout method. Chasers of the Light features some of his most insightful and beautifully worded pieces of work - poems that illuminate grand gestures and small glimpses, poems that celebrate the beauty of a life spent chasing the light.

This book changed my life outlook..
Would you listen to Chasers of the Light again? Why?
Yes. Already on my 4th time listening.
Who was your favorite character and why?
I enjoyed the entire experience of love without boundaries or limits. His love is above the physical world..
What does Tyler Knott Gregson bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
Reading a book that an author reads himself is what makes this book even more heartfelt and special.
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
The moment he first described seeing the typewriter and being so moved by it.
Any additional comments?
As a poet working on my first real love. I have published a short children's story but poetry is my love and behind disabled with not much time left at 43. Finishing my book is one of the things I get up for every morning. That you for lighting a fire in my soul again..
