Let's face it.
About seventy-five percent of the earth is covered in water - and of that water nearly ninety-seven percent is found in the sea. Maritimers will tell you that there is a story for every wave that washes upon the shoreline. That is an awful lot of stories.
Here are seven of them.
"In the Dark and the Deep" - An eerie tale of World War 2 convoy duty.
"Harry's Mermaid" - A group of homeless man - fishing for a little fun and folly - latch onto something that MIGHT be a mermaid. If that doesn't tell you enough about this tale - just try and imagine what Steinbeck's CANNERY ROW might have been like if it had been written by H.P. Lovecraft.
"I Know Why The Waters of the Sea Taste of Salt" - A story of an Okinawa kamikaze pilot and his encounter with a sea serpent.
"Finbar's Story" - A dark fantasy tale of the deeper currents that eddy and flow within the quiet of a man's cold heart.
"Built For Hanging On" - A story of the apocalypse as seen through the eyes of a old maritime married couple.
"The Woman Who Lost Her Tooth From Laughing Too Loudly at the Sea" - a fable of tears and salt water.
"Between You-Know-Who and the Deep Dark Blue" - a story of the last bargain made upon the earth.
