A man who's always seen the world through an artistic lens, where boat railings are covered in vermilion paint under cotton candy clouds, would like nothing more than to get validation from the son who's always thought his father was crazy. What if he isn't crazy at all? What if faeries are real? What if pixies did steal his shoes? Sometimes fathers and sons have lenses that will never be focused the same. Like most of my stories, this one has a surprise ending that makes people say, "Wait! What's next?! Give me more!" If you want more after you read it, you better tell me! :) ********** This is a short story I wrote for a series of shorts I am putting together for a community education course that I hope to teach one day (maybe in retirement to keep me from going stir-crazy, though that's still quite a ways a way).

A real-life account of seeing Trap from the lens of the like-minded

This is where I repost contest entries or links to my entries if they have no other home, mostly so I can keep track of them. It's bound to be a hodge podge of snippets, short stories, and maybe even a bit of poetry (which is horrendously far outside of my comfort zone). Every bit of writing gets me closer to a masterpiece! And who knows what snippet might take off in my imagination and make a life of its own.
