title: Adventures in Payne
author:  Payne Hawthorne 
description: Me? Well, I have this story inside of me. It is something that has its own life and needs to come out. I simply write so that I might birth this story, and share this world with others. My identity does not center on being a writer or author, but rather revolves around being an equestrian, a rider, and a horse trainer and teacher of horse development. I am a Parelli Natural Horsemanship Student, Level 4, in all 4 savvies. hat does that mean? It means I was inches away from getting my black belt within this world. This was the road I was on before the death of my horse, who had been my partner for 11 years. And so, after his death, I was pretty much left without an outlet. I went home and I cried, and sat on the couch for over a year. I really didn't have any other direction I could go within this life. I'd already poured 25 years of practice and training into what I'd been doing. What now? Four years previous, during a particularly bad winter, I sat at my computer and I wrote 15 chapters about an Angel that took the form of a mortal human. He was forced to grow up and learn, and develop as would be expected of any other human child. His story burst from me, and although it was very poorly written (I plan on going back and re-doing it now that I have a better grasp of story-telling) it was GOOD! My main character, named Collin in his mortal earth body, is enigmatic and endearing, and I magically brought him to life on the page. And so, I thought about that Angel turned mortal for the next few years. Then, after the death of my horse, and my struggles with depression and finding purpose, I decided to tell the story of why this angel came to earth in the first place. The story became about the female he came for, his soul mate that needed to be rescued. Her lessons became my lessons, and her need to learn how to love, became my need as well.

  Finding each other was just the start of things for Toshi and Mick. Happily

  ride off into. While Toshi struggles to cope with his own addiction, Mick has
  to face his own fears of rejection and troubles. Never easy tasks to start
  with but combined with trying to wrangle some order into the chaos of the
  train yard buffer lands between the human city and I/S camp, gaining some
  freedom and security for the I/S people, and building their night club all
  under the bright glare of too much attention it becomes almost impossible.

  The cranes and bulldozers were, for a change, silent. No dump trucks moved
  across the spring sun warmed train yards. A small portable trailer was set to
  the side of the construction site and workers moved around it with hard hats
