The story

I used to think history was just dusty books collecting cobwebs on shelves. Then it hit me – the past doesn’t just sit there. It actively shapes who we are right now.

When writing “Legacy Found,” I created Julius – a guy failing at being a husband and father, drifting through a mediocre life. Many of us might recognize parts of ourselves in him.

His wake-up call came through his father’s death and a strange dream that forced him to look inward. We all hit these moments when we need guidance, which Julius found in his mentor Mitchell.

Their journey took an unexpected turn when they discovered an old family book. As they read it together, stories of ancestors facing love, tragedy, and political upheaval revealed everything missing from Julius’s modern existence.

What struck me most was seeing how our predecessors handled crushing challenges while protecting what truly mattered – the connections that sustained them.

Through this fictional family’s journey [set against real historical backdrops], I wanted to show something universal: understanding where we come from transforms who we become.
