Four Stories

Four Stories puts the spotlight on revelations of clarity and epiphanies of character in the face of emotional challenges. ABOUT FOUR STORIESEach work of fiction is accompanied by a brief essay exploring the formative experiences, memories, and themes that inspired the work, making this a very personal and intimate collection.The book opens with &quote;You Got Me,&quote; in which the way two people each get through one particularly rough day might have a lot to do with how they spend their days to come.A musician struggles with expectations and understanding when he travels far from home with his new band for &quote;Gig Number Two.&quote;He says it's &quote;Not My Fault,&quote; but is something driving a wedge between them at their anniversary dinner, or is he just… distracted?&quote;The Days of Wine and Roses by The Dream Syndicate&quote; provides a mental soundtrack for a reluctant walk through memory and pain on the way to save a troubled damsel in distress, one last time.Each of the Four Stories is fiction, but they each have a piece of the author woven between the lines. You might find yourself in there, too.
