I was there, almost. I left L.A. just before the Story Salon started to gather. I heard some of these storytellers at other venues, open mics where I also shared my words. I am so glad for their strength and confidence, to persevere and ultimately publish this book. It is full of truths and made-up stories with the sound of real experiences from personal lives. I laughed, I shed a tiny tear, I have pondered over some things for days, echoing in my re-memory. Good words.

Great, fresh, funny and touching stories of life in modern times. Relationships, show business, family, memoir, rants — it’s amazing how such short stories (none over 4 pages) can pack such a wallop. Keenly observed, all-too-human tales make for a terrific ride. Wonderful for avid readers AND those of short attention span. Heck, keep a copy in the loo; just don’t expect the reader to come out of there any time soon…!

I loved it. I couldn’t put it down. I related so much to so many of the stories. If you are human you will really enjoy it.
