For four decades, J. Michael Straczynski has been one of the most successful writers in Hollywood, one of the few to forge multiple careers in movies, television and comics. Yet there's one story he's never told before: his own. In this memoir, the acclaimed writer behind 'Babylon 5', 'Sense8', Clint Eastwood's 'Changeling' and Marvel's 'Thor' reveals how the power of creativity and imagination enabled him to overcome the horrors of his youth and a dysfunctional family haunted by madness, murder and a terrible secret.
