My Writing: Fictional and Otherwise
My Fiction
- Sowing A new boy at a tough school fits in better than expected.
- Recall A long lost son calls home.
- Royalty Part of novel-to-be about a student teacher in an urban school. A talent show goes right.
- Bingo Was Her Name-O Another piece of the student teacher novel. Bingo night yields a surprise.
Restaurant Stories
True other than a few name changes....
- Tennis Shoeing Eating fine dinners, letting someone else pay.
- The American Express Card Don't leave philosphy class without it!
- Medical Insights What happens when doctors are allowed in nice restaurants. The Compound in Santa Fe--home of many amusing tales.
- Blazing Tables Flame and fortune at Commander's Palace in New Orleans. Everything is true as described.
Autobiography
- Roman Anti-Holiday No scooters, no Audrey Hepburn, just a tough trip in 1975.
- The Munich Opera On the same trip. How many Germans did we offend?
- Celebrity Encounters The not-so-great demonstrate just how they got that way.
- The Journal Of The Plague Semester A student teacher's disappointment and dismay at East Agricultural Technology Magnet High School in Kansas City. (May have that name wrong, but it was something equally preposterous.)
- The Ice Storm of 2002 Pictures and my take. The most powerful storm I've experienced. Nature sure does hold all the cards.
- September 11 Everyone had an experience; I did too.
- Home Birth Evan has been a handful since he arrived...well, even before he got here!
- 1983 A year of tumult; get the details of Boise, 18% interest, and bad decisions piling on top of each other.
School Memories....
Photos looking for names....
- Mrs. Baumgartner's 1962-63 Class Boy, are there some mugs there!
- Mrs. Floyd's 1960 Class And me, next to the teacher again. Is that an accident?
- Franklin School Honor Society: 1968 A plethora of fashion statements and sullen expressions. Nutley's finest!
- 1971 New Jersey Boy's State My usual squint, no other names I remember, but an interesting photo.
