I am writing this book because I wanted to test my short story writing skills. As I am rough drafting and sucking stories out of my ass, I realise that this is not an easy thing to do (write short stories). I tried the nonfiction route and I was hitting every roadblock and writer's-block known to man and alien at this point. Then I had to babysit my God-son for a few days and I was inspired. He can't speak but was very interested in throwing things around and being hyperactive. I did not magically know to write fiction, because I'm not very good at it, and it wasn't some moment of wonder that helped me. It was the fact that I asked for his help, he stared at me, threw his milk bottle at me, and said "pompom" which might sound strange, but it got me thinking about an ordinary man with elephant ears, and thus these stories were born. That being said, these stories are not for children. Maybe like 2 can be, but the rest will contain topics like abuse, sexual conduct, heart break, death and murder, which I assume many people do not want to explain to a 9 year old or a 3 year old. This book will contain 31 short stories. I use the title of the chapter as the theme of my stories and none of the chapters are related to one another. This book will be for the month of March story writing challenge set up by Evelina Everest, and to them I say thank you for the themes and probable nights sleep I will loose over this book. Thank you everyone who is reading this book, if you like it, I blush to you. If you do not like it, that's alright as well. If you steal my work, I will find you and pee your pants. If this book goes well, I will try more and possibly come out with a book with 365 chapters, representing the ultimate writing challenge.All Rights Reserved
