The idea is that this man, a writer is dying of old age and something happened where he mysteriously ends up in an unknown world where he's a young man again. The theme is late 1800s.

So far you've attracted my attention. Be sure to inform me when the rest of this science fiction saga is ready. I have often wondered what I'd do if I had the chance to start my life over again whereby I would go back in time into my six year old body knowing everything that I know now, all that knowledge about the future. I would know to invest all of my money into Microsoft. It’s stories such as this that end up as screen plays for block buster billion dollar movies. I was inspired by your story to write the following which you may keep as your own:

As a midnight thunderstorm raged outside my window, I sat in my study alone staring at blank sheets of paper flickering under candlelight all of which were scattered where I tossed them in frustration.

( “As I pondered weak and weary, I heard a constant tapping, tapping at my chamber door” … We never do get out from under the shadow of Poe now do we?)
