Arroe Collins Like It's Live

I’m always asking questions.  The fun begins when you start researching for answers. Such as…   Why are so many religious broadcast companies buying up terrestrial radio stations?  Was my mother telling the truth?  She said a country at war is determined by the number of boys born into the modern world?   I’m Arroe…  I am a daily writer.  A silent wolf.  I stand on the sidelines and do nothing but watch, listen study then activate.  I call it The Daily Mess.  A chronological walk through an everyday world.  Yes, it’s my morning writing.  As a receiver of thoughts and ideas, we as people tend to throw it to the side and deal with it later.  When a subject arrives, I dig in.  It’s still keeping a journal!  By doing the research the picture becomes clearer.  This is the Daily Mess…

The book asks such questions as: What can America’s 75th year in 1851 teach us about its 250th in 2026? Where do the similarities lie, and how does that earlier moment illuminate the present? Epic, richly cinematic, the book is: loosely based on the Starbucks - who were one of the founding families of Nantucket…and inspired by historical events – including the maiden voyage of the famous 1851 Boston-built Flying Cloud ship which sailed from New York to San Francisco in a groundbreaking 89 days and 21 hours. A page-turning adventure following Nantucket 18 year old, Winifred, daughter of renowned merchant captains Nell and Peter Starbuck, who longs to join her parents on their final voyage to China in 1851. Forbidden from the journey, Winnie takes matters into her own hands and stows away with them, sailing straight into danger and deception to confront a family secret that could change everything. For lovers of historical fiction, maritime adventure, and richly layered storytelling, readers will be prompted to reflect on the forces that shaped our nation’s rise — and the cost of that ascent.
