Submission Windows: stories and verse
Prison bars. Stained church glass. Deadlines precursing rejection. These are Submission Windows: vantage points for peeking in on-or out from-surgeons, killers, priests, perverts, inmates, athletes, musicians, and more than a few celebrities past their prime. Most clinging to frayed ropes of their own making, desperate for redemption, love, or merely an enduring pulse. For others, it's their ambition on display, destined for humility. These voyeuristic and vicarious vignettes include 26 short stories (all of the below, plus many never-before published), bridged by several dozen poems exclusive to this collection, and a story notes appendix. No theme, no genre ... just some troubled characters inviting you to watch.
