Book excerpt: Two short stories I've written were published; though not by me. I've written eight manuscripts and given them as gifts to certain individuals and families I've known who underwent extremely traumatic life-changing events. This one is a first hand telling about a man whose youth was that of an abused and tortured captive only to be abandoned at an early age and to fall through society's cracks into streets beset by gangs and sexual predators. This tells of his going on to become a highly decorated and publicized combat veteran and some of the excursions he was part of while in-country, especially Iraq. Only, to be discharged and return to a life of being homeless where he meets a wife, faces down a gangland threat only to lose his wife while his identity is being assumed. In ruin, he takes his newborn son and raises that son in the only world he knows, homelessness. Where he still resides though his son is able to leave his world and go to college. It tells how his faith protects his son from the unending and recurring visions of brutality accompanying the screams within his mind. This is my best gift to that son, my son. I now share what I did not during his youth so he might have rest within the knowledge that his father is a homeless man.

Book excerpt: Eighty-nine-year-old Regina and ninety-year-old Jackie met in 1955, an era when women were rounded up and jailed simply for dancing together or dressing like a man. On a cold winter day they manage to get themselves out of the house with the help of TJ and Ramon, two young men from their working-class neighborhood in Western Massachusetts. They tie their long-dead Christmas tree to the top of their car and, using a screwdriver in place of a broken gearshift, slowly make the drive to the dump. This is also the day when everything changes. During the course of their adventure, memories are triggered. Their history as a passionate and devoted, but troubled couple at the intersection of historic cultural and political change unfolds via scenes from the past—including their first meeting during a police raid on a bar and Regina's epiphany that she could truly love another woman. In the early years, they often live apart as they flee landlords who discover their secret. As their journey leads them to seek jobs and a sustainable life, they are sometimes separated—but always find their way back to each other. Combining the pathos and social significance of Fried Green Tomatoes at the Whistle Stop Café and the humor of The Golden with a cast of diverse characters worthy of the musical Rent, Fishwives chronicles a lifetime through the eyes of two old women behaving badly.
