Reverie Within is a reflection on the days I spent in college. I
was in school at Le Moyne College in Syracuse, New York. The book
begins as I left college with only a few courses left to graduate.
I found a place in the inner city area of Syracuse. It was the
beginning of summer in the year 1976. The place I got was rather
small. So small that I used to lay in a closet. I was gratefully
down the street from the apartment of a school friend of mine by
the name of Tommy. I am pictured in the beginning of the book at
his place drinking cold beers in the heat of the evening. As the
story goes on I write about a video play I directed called Shadow
of the Glenn. The actress and three actors I directed became fast
friends. We spent a lot of time together including a visit to a
spring fed lake on the side of town, swimming and barbecuing. I
make friends with my next door neighbor, whose name is Cindy.
Together we leave our apartment building at 4:00 am in the morning
to drive up to the mountains of upstate New York to go fishing. I
reach back in time to the year before and write about the girl I
was in love with. Her name was Amy. It was a heart-crunching
relationship: one that was hard to get over. The later part of the
book is the reading of a journal I kept on my trip to Europe. A
trip I took to get away from Amy and everything else. After reading
the journal I decide its time to leave the Syracuse area for home.
I tell a close friend named Tony "I'm going home." He agrees it's a
good idea. After a big party with Tony I drive home, and the book
ends with me pulling into my driveway in Parma Heights, Ohio.
