My entry in the Life Memory Story Contest. Please... no jokes like "well, that explains everything" or "lucky for you it was just your head."

Bad kids, bad parents, a dark closet, strange noises, and a pile of clothing ... what could possibly happen? This was my entry in the "Beat the Clock" contest. The first paragraph (modified slightly) was provided by Serious Writers.

First Place Winner in the Journalism Challenge Contest at Bookrix! Champion wheelchair marathon racer Lech Hiam from Tel Aviv once again demolished the competition in the 2011 Sons of Scotland marathon.

A very short, slightly humorous misadventure involving a remote-controlled ceiling fan, a dining room table with a footstool on top, a screwdriver, and someone who struggles with self-esteem when it comes to DIY projects. And aside from temporary emotional scarring, no-one was injured during the ensuing chaos.

Drabbles Contest entry (3 stories of 100 words each). Everybody's begging for your vote and you're absolutely sick to death of it. Is one really that different from another? No, I'm not talking about the Drabbles contest. All is revealed in Left Right Middle.

A light-hearted misadventure. A young man learns the ropes at a friend's ranch but doesn't know a meadow muffin from a bran muffin and learns something about friendship in the process.

This is the true story of my second to last marathon run in Edmonton Alberta in 1981 in which I qualified for Boston. The following year I ran Boston, met my wife Lynda and severed my achilles tendon (not that those 3 events are connected!). The Edmonton race was a personal best and the achilles injury ended my marathon days. This story takes you into my head from the start line to the finish in September of '81.

To my surprise (and delight) this was the winning entry in the Drabbles Contest. My Mom turns 91 this year and my Dad lives in a care facility some 800 miles away. They divorced when I was 13 and my Dad and I hadn't spoken to each other for about fifteen years. These stories are based on recent conversations and events.
