About This Book
A Labyrinth Of Wandering Thought
A delightful variety of Poems, Prose Poetry, Vignettes and Short Stories to inspire, encourage and brighten your life. From children’s fairy tales, fables and tall tales – to warm, satisfying stories of encouragement, love and completeness. Written in a style akin to an admixture of Robert Service and Rudyard Kipling with just a pinch of Shel Silverstein – From a reader: “First off, the primary font you’ve selected is clear and easy to read. It was a joy to read –easy and comfortable. It was like being served a warm slice of Americana fresh off the window sill before the neighborhood hooligans could swipe it for themselves. You evoked memories that I think cross over a generation or two. Although growing up is different now than it was for you and me, I think many people can still relate to your vignettes. I particularly liked “Perhaps, Perhaps Not!”, “Sweatin’ Bullets”, “Up Near Fredricksburg”, and “The Sentinel”. I loved the use of vernacular and the way you ended with “Timeless” … a very meaningful way to end the book.” Joe DeCenzo – Author and Poet; Graduate – LACC Theatre Academy LA cultural Affairs Grant recipient.
