The Store by the Sea

This book is a collection of eighteen short stories, with a variety of themes covered. A common denominator would be all the different twists and turns we make as a person tries and make sense of their world. The stories are told through the genres and styles of slipstream, fantasy, magical realism, some absurdity, and all with varying dabs of humor. These are no dry essays, nor pretentious and heavy handed. I write in a style I enjoy, and through these flights of fantasy, attempting hope to share that joy with the reader. To say it in a very unfunny way, it's a full hearted exploration of our human condition. There is a store found only at night for those who have lost their way, presentations about a sin that's never been sinned before, missionaries on the moon and a spaghetti dinner, instructions on how to rent out the Magi, an agency that arranges for you to speak with the dead , how prayer from a simple man set God off on a rampage, and more. If you should pick the book up, before deciding, and read a story, that would tell you more than I can in this short space. Thank you.
