Preface

In the most cliche of beginnings, I warmly welcome you, Reader, to my blog.  Thank you for stopping by!  This humble corner of the Internet is an online reflection of the book nook in my room.  More specifically, it is a reflection of a single shelf in said nook--the shelf that is home to a line of brown journals, each containing every writing effort of mine over the past thirteen years.  It is not a library filled with professional volumes.  I can and will promise neither quality, nor quantity, nor Garamond point 12.  I do, however, guarantee originality*, authenticity, and coffee**.  I hope you enjoy my writing as much as I enjoyed writing it.  Please feel free to comment with opinions, facts, critiques, advice, etc.  Any and all thoughts are greatly appreciated.  I hope that you enjoy these samples of my work so much that you stay with me in my little nook for the next year as I attempt to post a poem, short story, or chapter from a novel once a week.  So, pull up a chair (or a beanbag if you are that type )and grab a cup of coffee (or cocoa, if you are not that type).  Without further ado, I present my first short story of 2014:

The Walk of Dennis
