Some of these stories are a result of my one time membership in the Columbus Cooperative writing club in Columbus, Ohio. Some, just because I like to write. The Reindeer Games short story was a contest in the Medina Journal with the first part of the story being written by a journalist, Hilary Bernstein, an editor from that newspaper. I finished the story and received first place in the adult category of the competition.
Each of the stories reflect beliefs I have about life and have many elements of truth in them. The short story The Prayer, is based on actual events in my life in 2003. I relayed all that happened, exactly as they happened.
Though some of the characters have family names, I simply used them because they were familiar. If you like a good short story, I believe you will enjoy these little trips into my mind.
I would like to thank my wife, Terri, who has always supported my artistic endeavors. Now, go and get lost in one of my stories.
