This little book of short stories is a collection from my life. Beginning with family stories, shared during visits with grandparents, parents and friends from theater days then evolving into more recent tales. Each one is like a snapshot taken from one of my photo albums, which shares a small segment of a bigger story. These were all the ones that caught my attention. I hope you will enjoy reading them.
