My Stories
Here are my essays. Some are true, most are a mixture of fact and the truth set free....so to speak.  No blog for me,  I'm a print person.  These essays in blog format would look like long telegrams.   Font, white space and layout are important to me. 
I can't always control these important elements in html format on a web page, although I've put a few in htm AND pdf formats.   I  hope you enjoy them.  Write to me with comments,  and see "More Stories" for your invitation to write similar pieces.
