David Antony Herbert originally began writing The 9th Pleasure creativity in the 9th month of 2007 based on personal relationships between the sea and nature. As the short story unraveled layer upon layer, it became a delicate matter of holding precious gems of bearing within entangling formations of endless surrounding 9s. The 9th Pleasure originated as an autobiography mixed in with the love of cultures after finding a unique string of pearls while writing about the perspective pleasures of defying time. The parting side of the journey is an abstract poetry crossing set out to ask the universe questions about humanity, destiny, and weird worldly existence.
