A whittler and a tinkerer by nature, writing was never something I took seriously, but nevertheless, here we are.

I write short. I write slow. And hopefully, I write more often.

Musing on the human condition, I like to write about the interesting in the ordinary or the magical in the mundane, attempting to "read between the crumbs" (to steal a line).

But make no mistake in what you might choose to read here; in the Supermarket of Writing - this would be the junk food aisle.

Note, MATURE references and MATURE language are included in my stories - I firmly believe that vulgarity is simply part of the vernacular.

Note: I do not do f/f or v/v, but do adamantly take the time to read a short story or a chapter for any follow or vote received. Anonymous perhaps, but the ticker will turn.
