Two Pairs of Shorts

Starting out with just two short stories, my book was to be, "A Pair of Shorts" but when the collection grew, I had to change the name. The third story in this preview edition (with FIVE STAR REVIEWS) has been termed "One of the most unusual stories on Smashwords and that's saying something.". It's a sharp contrast to the humor of the first narrative, a fictional tale hatched in a dorm room from my very real college days in Boston back in the 1960s. The second short is an adaptation of a story told by the world's greatest showman, P.T. Barnum. I can't say that his yarn is the world's greatest, but it is a ghost story that I believe will amuse you.
