Overview

"In this collection of short fiction, I explore morality, sexuality, and existence through the eyes of children. These stories seek to understand the flash bulb memories that often form a kind of personal mythos we unconsciously adhere to. While adult perceptions are on the periphery, these stories center on the child's view of the world, be it their own, or a distorted presentation passed down to them by the adults in their lives. There is a feeling of danger that surrounds these stories that is rooted less in the actuality of physical danger (although that is a component) but in the psychological." -- Abstract
