As a young person, we worked hard and played hard, and events that occurred caused considerable pain to me both mentally and physically. My choices were not the best, and at seventeen, I was much on my own. The saying "I was the only hell my mother ever raised" was probably very accurate. I write this to tell what it was like growing up and to let others know...

Our marriage was given about two weeks to two months to survive. We stood two chances of making it work out--slim and none. But through commitment and stubbornness, we hung in there.

This book tells a little of the years we lived in Rapid City and how we grew. I'm sure there are others that have endured more turmoil and grief,...

Quick Bites is a collection of middles, published in major newspapers and magazines. What is it that makes the middle stand apart? The middle is short, hardly ever more than 600 to 800 words.
