The following short story is a work of fiction by Martin Holman.  Any resemblance to real life (with the exception of the 2020 pandemic and the My Lai Massacre) is purely coincidental.

My first novel, “Flat Earth” is now officially released and ready to buy digitally!  You can buy it on Kindle or Apple Books or Kobo or Smashwords.  If you’re looking for a good book to read, consider trying this one for a late night read or your virtual book club!  I hope you like it!

On a cold December morning in 2017, I met with a group of friends (that I still meet with, though this morning it will be on Zoom) and we discussed our dreams.  Not the kind that you have when you’ve spun through a deep cycle of sleep and are close to waking up, but the ones that spur you on to make it through this life.  The dreams that push you to be better than you are, while at the same time help you be the person you were created to become.
