Book of Being

You will have noticed there's a 'theme' going on when you squint at the previous two posts. The Artist, The Bartender, and now The Caregiver. A B C, right? And you'd be on the mark if you copped that. I am gradually writing a short story (some may be novellas) for each letter of the alphabet. This is not a series - the characters in no way relate to each other - but I intend to put them all, when done, into one volume. The title (at the moment) for the collection is Book of Being, for these are stories about real people (although, be warned, each has a slight supernatural or psychological twist). 


Given my commitment to Redwing Productions, time to write is scarce (and recently motivation has been missing also), and it will therefore be some time before all 26 stories are ready. Right now I'm halfway with The Student (cover ready) and The Orphan (still deciding on a cover); you will note I'm not following the alphabet to the letter :)
