The stories are steeped in a welter of emotions love, loneliness, cruelty, guilt, betrayal and others that make us feel vulnerable and fearful. The readers will hopefully find the style and technique of storytelling employed by the writer compelling enough to turn the pages. While in some stories, I have adopted a straightforward linear and chronological mode of narration, there are others which are unconventional in form and narration. The stories are cast in many genres realistic, speculative, fantastic, and psychological.
