This book is one of my mother’s inspiration, she named me Dwight after a journalist who used to visit the home with one of my uncle. So I discovered my gift for writing and penmanship from about 5 yrs old . This book is a combination of some very first writings and some very new ones . I tried to basically touch on all faucets of life , so came about the title :glimpses through time .

My hope is to stimulate and to engender an awakening of the expression within all of us.
