Garrett Ashe is an American author and poet whose self-described goal is to make readers fall in love with the magic of imagination.
Garrett recently self-published his debut book of poetry titled, “Modern Day Magic”. In this book, Garrett takes readers on a dreamlike journey through the magic that hides just beneath the surface in Modern Day society. A fitting title as we learn in this episode.
In the Spring of 2020 Garrett found himself like many others, unemployed. Things got worse after a car accident left Garrett injured and unable to walk. Having no job, he had no insurance, or way to pay for medical bills. Ultimately, he was forced to move back in with his parents.
That doesn’t sound like magic at all, does it?
Turns out, when you are confined to a bed, the only thing you can do is reflect.
And so, he reflected, “Why did the universe put me here? I have two choices, I can curl up in a ball and cry, or I can devote the energy that I have to finding a way out.”
He always knew he wanted to write a book, now he was given the opportunity. While stuck in bed Garrett committed to creating 3 unique poems a day. But, having catalogue of poems doesn’t make you an author. He still needed illustrators, editors, and publishers.
This is where the magic happens. He found a community that cosigned his passion and supported his journey.
In this interview Garrett says, “If I didn’t have the standard life that I knew stripped away from me, I would have never written this book.”
Magic!
