Valkyrie - Stories

Elliot has been unemployed since walking out of his job a year and a half ago. He enjoys working at the garage with Max, but also misses being a lawyer. He makes his decision after being reminded of good and bad aspects of his former career. Will he ultimately choose to be a lawyer or mechanic?

Where will a chance encounter at a park lead?

Life is full of twists and turns, both expected and unexpected, wondrous and excruciating. This year’s poems for National Poetry Writing Month will embrace the curveballs life throws at us and also serve as an exploration and raw portrayal of the grieving process. Follow me, and we’ll see what’s around the bend.

Bradley and Allen move into a new house in the country. They love their idyllic, new life until their son meets a new friend.

Elliot is living the good life, even though he hates his job. Then he meets Max, who helps him answer some tough questions he didn't have the courage to face.

A collection of my attempts at poetry.

April is National Poetry Writing Month (NaPoWriMo), and the challenge is to write 30 poems (one per day) throughout the month. This year, I decided to do something a little different. Each day (or every other day, depending on my mood) I will write a 'postcard'--a short poem about my daily dealings with the COVID-19 pandemic. I will also write other poems as the mood (and daily prompts) strike me. I think it will be an interesting exercise to see how the poems change across the course of the month.

We give you twenty-four bits and pieces of all flavors to celebrate the most mystical time of the year.
