Virus, and other stories

Eloquent storytellers have been boasted about for thousands of years. Their words etched in the minds of the collective human spirit for all time, these men and women are legendary, but very few of their tales rang true. That was the beauty of what they were able to do – change lives, sometimes on a grand scale; most of the time, their tales only served to provide a momentary reprieve from the humdrum of normal life. This collection aims to do just that. While not meant to be eloquent in nature and not written with the idea of ever having statues erected in the author's honor, Virus, and Other Stories will delight and entertain a reader and provide plenty of fodder for water cooler conversations at work. From the Australian Outback to quirky and oftentimes surreal neighborhoods around the globe, this collection and every character, young and old, will resonate with you and take you out of your comfort zone to see life, loss, friendship and death in a whole new light.
