About the Author

Educator Dale Benjamin Drakeford is exposed to dream burdened students. People are severely affected by their sleep time adventures. The author also suffered through nightmares as a youngster and always felt that they had significant personal and social information to offer. The feelings were validated over years of formal and experiential research as a student of the human condition and a service-provider for the emotionally challenged. In this latest work of fiction, the writer-counselor of New York City gets to explore a composite of demons of the night and day.
