Short Stories

I've been writing short stories ever since I was a kid, and I've always found that they allow a great deal of freedom to explore ideas that don't really merit an entire novel. Saying that, it doesn't mean that these stories don't need to be told. So here are a few of my ramblings for your reading enjoyment. 

21-B Sunrise Apatments 8339 Oceanside Av

Stranger Friend

It's happened to all of us before. You see an unfamiliar face, yet they hold a semblance of recognition. 

Is it possible to meet a stranger and have a fundamental connection, or does the mind create its own coincidence?

In Stranger Friend, these questions are explored, but it's up to you to decide what you believe to be real.
