SHORT STORIES AND COMPLAINTS ABOUT PEOPLE I CARE ABOUT BUT WHO CAN’T RESIST SCREWING ME.

•A STRING ALONG: The mis-adventures of a screenwriter in Hollywood at a Pitch Fest, trying to get his screenplay accepted.
•BLAME IT ON RENO: a romantic comedy screenplay treatment about two couples, lifelong friends, who go to Reno to get married, but get so drunk on the wedding night, they marry the wrong partner and live happily.
•THE HAPPINESS ALCHEMIST: The adventures of Aloysius Williams and how they tested his belief in the need for happiness.
•JAKE, THE SNAKE: A complaint about a friend who was a bully, coward and successfully business man.
•LIGHT-FINGURED LOUIE: The adventure of a thief and his conversion to Christianity.
•TIE ME UP, TIE ME DOWN: It was the best of times. It was the worst of times. It was a twentieth century marriage – the perfect imperfection.
•PULLING ON A STRING: What is the meaning of life? Perhaps you find it going for a swim?
•HAWAIIAN HANG-UP: A son returns to his family in Hawaii for his father’s funeral and finds himself caught up in the family’s gangster past and present – “Do the meek inherit the earth?”
•ROLL OF THE DICE: The ills of gambling clash with the sensitivities of a man who only wants to help.
•THE PRODIGAL FATHER: No matter what you he’s done (or hasn’t done), you can’t give up on your father!
•THE END OF MY ROPE: After eleven years enduring petty racism, obdurate spitefulness, pointless bickering and cowardly and deceitful behavior, I had had enough
The characters in this book come alive and seem to be telling us to focus on which end of the string the influence lies. In other words, in any given situation, who needs to change, me or the other guy? You are in for a treat.
