I am a Storyteller (About Eric Blue)

I

Eric Blue is a modern era storyteller who sees things differently than most writers do. He spots the “story behind the story” and his mind works on the “what could have been” scenario. He focuses on the mirror image to give the readers an in-depth look at how life could have been.

I am fascinating with stories-how stories change lives, how stories influence histor(ies) and universe(s), how stories have been recorded and told.

His work may be fiction, but it also could have been today’s headline news. Eric’s writing is built on a passion to boldly go where other writers seldom thing about going.

Kindly note that some of Eric’s work is on a free-to-the-public basis. Being a full-time businessman and family man, Eric is open to receiving ideas from the public that can bring to life in the form of a book. With his novels and short stories that have being available free of charge to the public, remuneration will not be available for ideas provided. The pleasure will be in seeing your idea being brought to life!

He is always on the lookout for cartoonists too, as drawing is a big part of the Eric Blue storytelling plan.

Some of My Works

Ch.21: The confidential file (The Mandela Effect V.2, Daughter and Wife) e.1

Back at his flat, Pieter’s mind is racing at the prospect of a good payday in Marikana and the potential of doing other security work for his new friends in African states.
His mobile phone bleeps and his face lights up as R200 000 is paid into his bank account. Lucas Sithole keeps his word by paying a deposit fee to Pieter. There is no turning back now. The full amount for the job stands at R2 million.
Pieter knows that the stakes are high as Vice President Cyril Ramaphosa is a non-executive director shareholder in Loxton Mines, the key roleplayer at Marikana.
Pieter sees his life being upgraded before his eyes. He would be able to afford luxury, instead of living off a policeman’s salary.

Ch.18: The missing man (The Mandela Effect V.2, Daughter and Wife) e.1

The South African Police Services Special Investigative Unit in conjunction with a team under Pieter’s mentor, Colonel Jaap Cornelius, are on a mission to find the Lieutenant. Meanwhile, Pieter is back keeping a low profile in a coffeeshop in Pretoria. Again, he spots a person across the street who looks just like Lindiwe Jnr.
The girl was dressed in red, pretty like what he had seen in the dream. He chased after her. He noticed the girl talking to two other women, and waited for her to finish the chat, but as she did, she disappeared into a pavement full of people and Pieter could not find her. He returned to speak to the two women that the girl had spoken with, but they denied having seen her. Nothing was making sense to Pieter.

Ch.02: Oh, Mother City (The Mandela Effect V.2, Daughter and Wife) e.1

In the car on the way from Pretoria to Cape Town, Pieter asks Lindiwe if she believed that South Africa could return to the Nelson Mandela dream of a unified, corruption-free country.
The next day, on the ferry trip on the way to Robben Island where Mandela was held prisoner for many years by the Apartheid government, Lindiwe senses Mandela’s voice in her head.
Once on the island Lindiwe had a sense that she had been there before. Was she going crazy? On a rock at the far side of the island, she noticed her name carved on the hard surface. Yes, there was a definite link between her and Mandela!

Ch.11: Goodbye, Madiba (The Mandela Effect V.2, Daughter and Wife) e.1

Thabo Mbeki takes over from Nelson Mandela as President of South Africa. Mandela and Mbeki have a heart-to-heart chat and Madiba tells his successor that it is as if someone had infiltrated his mind to give him good advice.
The voice tells Mandela that she will continue to guide him but can’t help Mbeki.
Mbeki asks Mandela for some examples of what the inner voice has told him. Mandela mentions the forthcoming Arms Deal fiasco and mentions Joe Modise’s battle with cancer, which he would eventually succumb to in 2001. The inner voice tells Mandela that Mbeki should focus on the economy and the health situation in the country. Mbeki’s view of ‘can a virus cause a syndrome’ would later see him blamed for the deaths of over 330 000 people who would die from HIV-Aids.
