The Awakening

by Otis Ritch

Overview

This is a Science Fiction novel that is a fast-paced adventure story about a young woman whom the Creator has chosen to lead the people into rebellion against a world dictator and his army of evil followers. The story takes place on a new world on which the people from Earth had chosen to establish a spiritual society. Yet they allowed a scoundrel to become a dictator and after a hundred years of abject evil they were complete slaves and had no hope left. This story shows just how powerful the love that God pours out on his creation can be. It also shows that prayers are indeed answered.
In my writing I try to strike a chord on the instrument of truth that is hidden in the depths of the mind of the reader in hopes that it will resonate in the heart with joy and gladness and bring new hope and inspiration that will touch the soul and promote new growth and prompt a greater search for truth, beauty, and goodness. I have high hopes for the world and the people on it. It is my firm belief that if everyone would go forth with love in their heart and try to help instead of hinder that this world could become a better place on which to live. Love is the greatest force in all of creation. The Creator brought everything into existence with love and he upholds it with love. Eventually man will exist in an environment of love filled with truth, beauty, and goodness. Any that will can start to help the process advance simply by adopting an impeccable set of values and live a life with love in their heart for all their fellow men. Now is the time to try love instead of hate, mercy instead of vengeance, compassion instead of anger, honor and self-respect instead of deceit and lies, and a little laughter instead of tears.

About the Author

I am a wild Choctaw Indian from the Mudlark bottoms in Stigler Oklahoma. As a child I grew up in the desert Southwest, in and around the Casa Grande Valley in Arizona. I spent many happy hours roaming the desert and mountains learning about the animal and plant life there and why there are sea shells on the tops of the mountains. The desert can be a harsh teacher where death can come quickly to those not prepared for the constant dangers that exist. There are rattlesnakes and Gila monsters as well as coyotes, wolves, skunks, wild hogs, cougars, scorpions and centipedes. The desert is also a beautiful place that is full of life and adventure. In the solitude one can take the time to meditate and contemplate on life and the reasons thereof. One can find the Great Spirit and seek guidance on ones life path in the desert. I learned much from the desert and also from the Indians of the desert country. As an adult I have traveled over half of the states in the United States. I have worked as a field hand, ginned cotton, worked cattle, worked on a core recovery drill rig, fry cook, service station attendant, pipe line construction, welded bridges, welding shop foreman, plowed land, irrigated crops, foreman on two farms, played music at honkytonks, sold everything from grand pianos to grandfather clocks, taught meditation classes, owned stores, etcetera. I am also a master boot maker and leather artist. I have worked since I was twelve years old and have been making my own way in the world since I was sixteen. I am self-educated and I like to meditate and spend time in natural surroundings. One can gain much soul growth by seeking out a quiet place to commune with the Great Spirit. I have made a lifetime study of people, trying to learn what motivates them as they act out the drama of life. With fishing and golfing as hobbies you might guess how I learned to tell stories. One thing to keep in mind as you read my stories is that some of the things I write about may seem to be so fantastic that it must be pure fantasy -- yet sometimes the truth is more fantastic than fiction. I have been up the creek and over the mountain. I have been to a goat roping and a county fair and I have even been to town and seen an elephant. I am currently living in Texas--you know the little suburb of Oklahoma just south of the Red River. Texas is the original home of tall tales and long winded people so I feel right at home here.
