Writing Shotgun

In a society obsessed with the anxiety- producing message that we should all be in the driver's seat of our destiny in life - even when we really can't - these six stories and four poems celebrate the adventure, the enlightenment and the wisdom that comes from being along for the ride.

So, climb aboard an overcrowded, barely seaworthy freighter bound for Zanzibar; meet a tiny home invader who arrives with a powerful message of love; discover how lutefisk can change your life, and more.
