Laughter. Love. Loss. Life.

Inside, you’ll find tales containing:
· Death: “It was an accident. Wasn’t it?”
· Dark humor: “She screamed out to me to help because she didn’t know I did it to her.”
· Humor: “I certainly wasn’t ready for the man to come to the door naked.”
· Loss: “Daddy rests below the stone in perfect rank and file.”
· Sports: “Batters comin’, batters goin’, runnin’, catchin’, slidin’ by.”
· Childhood: “…danced on sunburned feet down the dirt road.”
And much more.
This anthology celebrates award-winning poetry, 59-word and 100-word stories that are short and sharp but can hold an entire narrative. There’s much to be said for brevity.
