He got up on the rack and could only get two or three. I got 10. When I finished my set he gave me the thumbs up and said “Power!” I showe ...

A beautiful woman in love, the kind of love that lasts eternity. A handsome man in love, that opening of the soul where she enters and stays forever. I cry for him, my arms open, reaching for him with tears running down my face. He turns his back on me, the one he loves. Not because he is in control ...

My skin began to itch and I violently tore at the ropes that were binding me, twisting back and forth like a mental patient in a straightjacket. but i ...

… and over 160 audio plays. Gotta say that the Well Told Tales podcast of my crime fiction short story “You’re A Moron” has been a good deal. Great exposure. Reading by actor Glen Hallstrom was spot-on. “Free” is good from the listener’s perspective, but how does someone turn this experience into ca ...

There are many things I wish I didn’t remember at all. Being raped at sixteen. A stepfather who beat the hell out of my mother, my sister and me. The hatred I felt towards him.
