This piece, Innocence Lost, is one of my earlier works.  
Because of the nature involved in the work, I purposely kept
it off of this web site.  However, after so many years, and
because of the rampant abuse that seems to be occurring
against our youngest people, I've finally felt as if it's ready to
be displayed at this site.
After learning of a friend's family situation a few months
back, and learning the difficulties that they are having with
their child, I began to write an alternative fan fiction story
loosely based on their life which deals with the topic of lost
innocence.  I began the series, Sins of the Mother, in hopes
of reaching out to those who have been affected by this
subject.  I also wanted to bring the topic out in the open to
people who may have never experienced what a child who
has lost their innocence is force to go through while on their
path to healing and wholeness.

To read the Xena Fan Fiction, story:
Ari's Story
I believe that if more people are aware of the blatant abuse
and neglect of children, then perhaps we, as a society, can
do whatever is necessary to stop the needless loss of
innocence amongst our youngest members in society.
