Thousands of nights go by in a lifetime but one can change you forever. When an oncoming car crosses the centerline and robs Richard Black of the love of his life, his musical genius follows her into her grave. After spending a year working a job as far away from the world of music as he can, he can’t help but want to hear her voice one more time. So, he tries to give the songs she sang to an iconic singer. But to catch her attention, he must prove himself and his compositions. He must strap back on the guitar he felt he no longer deserved and dare to step back into the bright lights of center stage. Stranded between the attention of this superstar and the love-of-his-life who has passed, Richard must navigate a jealous boyfriend, unlock the music in his heart, embrace the genius he was born with, and learn how to say goodbye. Sometimes funny, sometimes suspenseful, FINDING CENTER STAGE is a story about the relationships that uplift us, the long road of redemption, and what it takes to find peace in forgiving.

If you loved Daisy Jones & the Six, The Final Revival of Opal & Nev, Bohemian Rhapsody, or A Star is Born, you’ll love FINDING CENTER STAGE.

From the Author

Sometimes when you’re set apart, you’re meant to stand out.

As teens and young adults, we struggle to find the center stage of our lives, defining for ourselves who we are and what we’ll make of this lifetime. Although that journey never stops, we feel it most keenly at the beginning of adulthood when we are forced to take our first, tentative steps into the world of  “making it.” Like the first steps we took as infants, we fall, get hurt and stand back up. So it is with Richard Black, a musical prodigy who loses his fiance, loses his way, and loses touch with the musical genius that is at the center of who he is. Most of us want to make this lifetime extraordinary but also feel a strong pull to stay safe. We end up straddling both worlds never quite satisfied with either. So it is with Richard, who must risk his family ties, his promising job, and his sobriety to pursue the dream his brain tells him he shouldn’t but his heart tells him he must.
