The Nakedness of Ozone – New Fiction
The Nakedness of Ozone – New Fiction. A New Memoir Story for you, my wonderful readers, because we desperately need stories during these times of Corona. My latest short story, The Nakedness of Ozone, has just been published in the anthology Growing Up, put out by Pure Slush, a fine Australian press. This is my first accepted story with this excellent indie press. The Nakedness of Ozone is the story of a little boy, his father, a swimming pool, and the memory of hot rain on summer pavement. This is a poignant piece of fictionalized memoir that has been kicking around in my noggin for some time. I am thrilled have this story be a part of this great anthology. As always, I am throwing down a huge shout-out to the editors of Pure Slush and to you as well, my superlative readers!

Breaking the Bundles
The Past Can Kill.
Vienna, Austria, a city of palaces, music, and cafés. But behind the cold, grey stone lies a dark secret. Against this backdrop of culture and shadows, the fates of three unforgettable people will be drawn into a common peril. As the lives of the characters cross, revenge shifts to passion, betrayal becomes an act of honor, and the past exacts a heavy toll from the present. The secrets of the past threaten the lives of those that hold them; the same secrets threaten the men who work in the shadows. The weight of the past will pursue Perry and Zita across two continents, threatening their love and their lives. The chase becomes a conflict of revenge and desire, of shadow and light, of love and the struggle to survive.
