A Brief Moment In Time is the first in a three book series of short story collections that focuses on that moment when everything changes. A truth to tall tales, the vision a child, the inescapable dark room of the mind, death’s journey, religious loss, truth of oneself, a blind journey to know oneself. The over arching theme of this collection of stories is hard to bring oneself to do, it can be a very scary thing: self discovery. It’s something we all must face now, in the future, or beyond.
A Brief Moment In Time contains nine short stories of one life shattering decision, a moment when everything changes: Brother Eagle/Sister Wolf, Into the Woods, Approaching Rebirth, From His Efforts Come, An Angel’s Kiss, The Goode Student, Good Teachings, Arahant, A Brief Moment In Time, and Tenuous Freedom. A set of stories designed to make the reader contemplate what and when that defining moment might be.
The Stories:
Brother Eagle/Sister Wolf: Melvin has a story to tell. Everyone who had stayed to listen to Melvin’s stories has never been seen again. Dexter doesn’t believe in the stories he hears. But Dexter is about to discover the truth behind tall tales.
