Tales by 10 by Peter Cruikshank
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Tales of Ten gave me a refreshing glimpse into the lives, loves, and sorrows of a group of talented writers in this anthology of poetry, fantasy, and carefully crafted short stories. I bobbed and weaved while reading Pete Peterson’s excellent short story “Winner Take All”, a tale that transcends the confines of the boxing ring and becomes a guide for survival in an era gone by. Michele Ivy Davis gifts us with a poem about the tender moments she shared with her young son in “In His Second Year” while Maryls Collom exposes the soft underbelly of nightlife in San Diego in her story “Card Room Dealer.”Other contributors include Judy Opdycke, Charlie Wyatt, R. Boyd Palmer, Gerry Strong, J. E. Michals, Peter Cruikshank, and Elisa Blaisdell. Ten writers share pieces of their lives and readers can find a piece of themselves within each eclectic tale.
Another year has passed and the scams and hacks continue to grow! I will be sharing news and tips as we transition into 2019 and will be adding more info on my adventures.
I have several writing projects on tap, both fiction and non-fiction, and will have some exciting news to share soon about an upcoming workshop presented by the wonderful folks at The Writers Police Academy.
Reading and writing top my list for 2019 goals and I will be exploring other creative interests as the year continues while making new connections and learning more skills. Stay tuned and most important – stay safe!
