Poems written for National Poetry Writing Month, April 2020. An assortment of mercifully short poems, I hope you will enjoy them at your leisure.

Tucked away in the southeast corner of Tennessee is a small town called Minor Springs.

Tristan is a bullied teen who spends his days (and nights) plotting his escape.

Finn has it all - popularity, money and the perfect girlfriend - but feels the town is closing in around him.

As Minor Springs threatens to destroy them both, they will find refuge in an abandoned clubhouse in the woods separating their two worlds.

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.

Friggy and Jewl were street kids in a world that had been changed by momentous events. They survived by simply taking what they could get, working if work presented itself, and choosing other means if needed. If that sometimes meant a little basic thievery, well, that was a part of the world they lived in. It was a big city, and small crimes were tough to solve.

Until one day when they picked up something unexpected, something unique. And in so doing, set off a pursuit that would ultimately redefine their very existence.

A long short story, presented complete.

A new story following the lives of Dylan and Jesse from my 'Riding Lessons' series

Life can seem like an entirely different experience when a global pandemic causes everyone to stay at home and out of harm's way. Especially for young Asher, who was just beginning to realize that he has a huge crush on his friend Caleb, and is longing to make contact with him. They stay in touch, but he's so out of reach. Gathering up the courage to tell his current infatuation how he feels, will Caleb accept his growing love for him...or will they become more distant than ever before?
