This is a nice collection, vivid and spare, with shades of Raymond Carver in there. I'll want the chapbook/collection when published!

Love the opening line of "Murder." And the rest of them as well. A perfect, quirky little tickle-bomb.

These are all pretty funny. Skinheads was especially silly, almost sweet stuff. Thanks for posting them.
