These short stories are works of fiction, so to speak. Some of the characters were actual living beings, but I have changed their names and have changed the circumstances surrounding them. Their names and the places associated with them do not represent any living or deceased person accurately. They have been fictionalized in much the same way someone copies a Picasso.

Produktbeschreibung
These short stories are works of fiction, so to speak. Some of the characters were actual living beings, but I have changed their names and have changed the circumstances surrounding them. Their names and the places associated with them do not represent any living or deceased person accurately. They have been fictionalized in much the same way someone copies a Picasso. Most of the characters are people I have known at some level and to some degree, but I must emphasize that in the story, these are fictional characters based loosely on people I have actually known. Some characters are totally fictitious, including narrators. Time wise, the relevant events primarily take place within a 50 year period, 1953 to 2003. Facts are actually alternate facts associated with the characters, and are included for dramatic embellishment. Accuracy of some facts may sometimes be subjective and not meant to be absolute. Artistic freedom is to be understood and accepted by the reader.

Autorenporträt
I have never thought of myself as a writer. I like telling stories. Some of my stories are pretty good, and some are really bad. Nevertheless, I find that most people like my stories. I grew up in Kansas City, Missouri, but have lived in Texas most of my adult life. I did not move to Texas by choice. Circumstance, and maybe fate, brought me to San Antonio. My experiences here have been both satisfying and inspiring ... and fulfilling.I have a Bachelor's degree from UMKC, a Master's degree from UTSA, and a Ph.D. from University of Texas, Austin. I was a licensed psychologist for most of my professional life. My practice took me to a prison, a state hospital, nursing homes, as well as college teaching. These stories were written years ago. After retirement, I decided to organize my stories into print. Most of these stories go back to my developmental years and onward. I was an Altar Boy for several years and that experience stayed with me like a tattoo etched on my chest. I hope you like my coming-of-age stories.Please review them. And, I hope you will recommend them to others.Thanks again! And remember: It's not growing old that takes the joy out of our lives. It's taking the joy out of our lives that makes us grow old.Stay safe and strong. My best wishes for you! God Bless!
