Uncommon Heroes and Cars

Twenty-one inspired short stories. There can never be enough written about heroic acts and heroic people, we all need the inspiration they give us. This book is a small contribution to help fill that need. Most of the stories are fiction, but the characters, dogs, and cars were largely informed by those I’ve known or admired. In these pages you will find adventures, mysteries, and people from many walks of life. In some stories, people are the heroes with cars playing a supporting role, in others animals take on the heroic role. The stories include gear heads, detectives, firefighters, soldiers, fathers, kids, dogs, cats and of course cars. Each story is a snapshot of heroic acts some small, others large. Real heroes walk among us who often go unnoticed. They shun the bright lights of praise, doing the things they do for the sake of doing good works. My hope is that after reading this collection of stories, you will be inspired to perform acts of kindness and that those who receive your kindness will pay it forward.
